Dark Mode UI - A Full Dark UI Rework for Oblivion Remastered

About the Mod:

Dark Mode UI is a complete rework of the vanilla UI for Oblivion Remastered. No more getting flashbanged by every single menu in the game. No more hard-to-read menus if you have trouble with low contrast. After many hours of work and too much time banging my head against a wall trying to figure it all out, here we are.

This is still very much a work in progress. There's a lot of inconsistencies, weird color choices, textures and icons that need some attention, and other little issues here and there to figure out. But so far, every UI menu in the game has been touched up and converted into your classic dark mode look, with only a couple exceptions which we plan to get to soon.

If you find any missing menus, things that aren’t readable (besides some buttons, we’re aware of those), or bugs/weirdness of any other kind, feel free to drop it in the Psts and I’ll take a look.

This is my first ever mod, be gentle. I’ve been playing games my whole life, but am legally blind. I have a really hard time with low-contrast things and bright colors with dark text. So when the game launched, I not only got flashbanged by the menus but also couldn’t use them. So, I looked for anyone fixing the problem. Lots of people doing similar things but no one quite to the level I needed and wanted, at least not yet. I decided it’d be a fun project to do myself. Then just kept failing upwards.

It took me forever to figure out the very basics, but I eventually got it. I’m awful at textures but met someone else on the Discord who had already been working on dark textures, so we collabed. Then through a few dozen hours of work and lots of trial and error, seeing how other people did things, asking for help, the like, it all started to come together. I hope you enjoy!
