📋 About This Mod
Thanks to Vegetto88 for commenting how to fix it for the newest Dev Build since I'm not currently on OpenMW.
I've uploaded a new version with the fix that should work for the latest build (as of Dec 2023).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I noticed that OpenHUD wasn't working with the current Dev Build of OpenMW even though wazabear even published a patch for 0. 48, so I wanted to look into why because I really really love the mod!
The folders are arranged differently in the current build, so the files didn't go where they belong when installed - which was why it wasn't working.
So this is just a quick Repackage with the new folder structure!
-- This will be taken down once/if an official patch is released ofc!
You can now install it like any other OpenMW mod!
(I suggest Mod Organizer 2 with Kezyma's OpenMW Player ^^)
(If you install it manually you absolutely must keep a backup of the replaced files!)
All credit goes to the original creator wazabear!

💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you're running OpenMW 0.49 dev build, not a stable release, or this mod won't work
- Extract the ZIP directly into your OpenMW data directory, then enable it in the launcher's content list
- If you're using a mod manager, you can import the ZIP directly, but manual extraction works just as well
