📋 About This Mod
Oblivion UI Skin for HUD Status Bars "Skyrim Mode" (yes, I realise that's a ridiculously long name, I couldn't think of a better one!) is a UI reskin of the "Skyrim Mode" included with the HUD Status Bars mod in the style of Oblivion.
It retextures the Skyrim-style compass, compass markers, player status bars (health, stamina, magicka) and enemy health bar.
Sounds simple, but required more work than you'd think!
