📋 About This Mod
The default interface runs at 30 FPS; as part of my on-going UI tweaks, I decided to convert the game's interface files to 60 FPS.

This includes only the files that were stable enough after conversion. The reason I made my own conversion is because the other mod that does this, Smooth Interface, doesn't use the new Skyrim: Special Edition .swf files and overwrites your game's files with files from Skyrim classic. Those files were compiled in a different version of Flash and do not contain all the elements that the game expects there to be. While it works, I much prefer a clean approach where possible to avoid instability further down the line.
People requested that I upload it and thus, here are my own tweaks. Enjoy.
Features:
- []From a technical point of view, all this does is run the interface animations twice as fast. Nothing more. []Compatible with all UI mods. Simply load this before mods such as SkyUI or Better MessageBox controls, allowing them to overwrite this one where applicable. []Compatible with my other UI tweak, Clean Menu. Use the 60FPS version and load it after this mod. []Compatible with my mod Immersive Bookreading and Lockpicking. Load that after this mod.
