📋 About This Mod
HUD Encumbrance Bar
By OperatorJack
Description
This mod adds a 4th statistic bar to the player HUD, representing current encumbrance. The bar will automatically update as you add or drop items, active feather effects, etc. Additionally, when targeting an item in the game world, the bar will update to reflect your encumbrance if you were to pick that item up. This preview is not implemented for inventory windows, like containers or barter windows.
This mod IS NOT compatible with OpenMW, at least until support for MWSE mods is added. See readme for more information.
Adds a fourth statistic bar to the player HUD that displays current encumbrance, making it easier to track carry weight at a glance. A simple UI enhancement for players who want immediate feedback on their load without opening menus.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Simple and effective—no more opening menus to check your carry weight
- Community-tested with 171 endorsements and over 7,400 downloads
- Fits right into the HUD without cluttering, just a clean extra bar
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2021—might not work with the latest game patches
- No screenshots or detailed description, so you're flying blind on visuals
- Only adds a bar—no customization options like color or position
For players who hate pausing to check encumbrance and want it visible at all times. Perfect for loot hoarders and explorers who need constant awareness. Skip if you're happy with the vanilla HUD or want more UI customization.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure to place the files in the correct HUD folder—check your game's modding guide if unsure.
- If the bar doesn't appear, try disabling other HUD mods that might conflict.
- Since it's a UI mod, it's safe to remove anytime without breaking saves.
