📋 About This Mod

Gauntlet Cursors Collection

Gauntlet Cursors Collection collection of gauntlet style cursor replacers, designed for Vanilla, Nordic UI, Untarnished UI and Dear Diary Dark Mode! Inspired by a similar mod uploaded recently, I loved the idea but wanted a version that fit with my setup and things snowballed from there. Options are as follows:

Vanilla Filled: A vanilla style cursor with black insides for better contrast.

Vanilla Outlined: A vanilla style cursor with outlines.

Nordic UI Normal: Nordic UI style.

Nordic UI Rough: Nordic UI style, slightly damaged.

Nordic UI Bronze: Nordic UI style, brown gradient.

Nordic UI Iron: Nordic UI style, grey gradient.

Nordic UI Gold: Nordic UI style, gold gradient.

Untarnished UI No Shadow: Untarnished UI style.

Untarnished UI Shadow: Untarnished UI style, light drop shadow for better contrast.

Dear Diary Dark Mode: Similar in style to DDDM. Not animated, sorry.

Requirements

None, but the styles are made for their respective UI overhauls, so it might look weird without.

Installation

Through a mod manager, make sure it overwrites any other mod that edits cursormenu.swf

Uninstallation

Delete from mod manager

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Community favorite with 414 endorsements and over 71k downloads
  • Works with several popular UI overhauls, so you don't have to pick between cursor and interface
  • Simple cosmetic change that adds a nice thematic touch without affecting gameplay

⚠️ Cons

  • Only changes the cursor—no other UI elements are touched, so if you want a full overhaul, look elsewhere
  • Last updated in September 2023, so it might not be actively maintained for future game patches
  • Compatibility is limited to the listed UI mods; if you use a different UI overhaul, you may need to test it yourself
🎯 Is This For You?
For Skyrim players who use Nordic UI, Untarnished UI, or Dear Diary Dark Mode and want a matching gauntlet cursor. Also for anyone who wants a subtle, lore-friendly UI touch. Skip if you're looking for a full UI overhaul or if you don't care about cursor aesthetics.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • If you're using a mod manager like Vortex or MO2, just download and install—no manual file placement needed.
  • Make sure your UI mod is installed first, then install this cursor replacer so it overwrites correctly.
  • If you're on Skyrim Special Edition, ensure you have the correct version for your game (the mod page should specify).
