This mod simply moves and re-sizes some of the HUD for something closer to my personal taste with the minimap or compass being in the top right corner.
Requirements:
Simple HUD for OpenMW
Installation:
Simply replace the openmw_hud.layout file from the original mod in the mygui folder.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Fresh take on HUD layout by mixing two popular styles—worth a look if you're tired of vanilla.
- Small but active community (22 endorsements) suggests it works for those who try it.
- Recent update (Nov 2023) means it's likely compatible with current Skyrim versions.
⚠️ Cons
- Requires the original Simple HUD mod—extra dependency to manage.
- Only 22 endorsements, so it's not widely tested; you might hit issues.
- No screenshots or detailed description, so you're flying blind on what it looks like.
For Skyrim players who already use Simple HUD and want a different layout without building from scratch. If you're new to HUD mods, start with the original Simple HUD first. Skip if you want a complete UI overhaul—this is just a layout tweak.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Install the original Simple HUD mod first, then overwrite its files with this mixed layout.
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2 to keep track of file overwrites and avoid conflicts.
- Test in a new game or after loading a save to ensure the HUD displays correctly.
