📋 About This Mod
This mod simply re-introduces the vanilla menus while using SkyUI.
This does not stop MCM from working, so any mod that needs SkyUI for MCM will still work.
Requirements:
Just SkyUI. REMEMBER TO GO TO ADVANCED IN SKYUI OPTIONS AND TURN OFF MENU WARNING!
Load Order:
Hide SkyUI must be below SkyUI on the load order for mods.
If insalled manually, simply overwrite the files you want.
Installation:
Install via any mod manager.
Installer will allow you to select which files you want.
Simply delete the mod from your mod manager.
If installed manually, delete the files from the interface folder.
Final Note:
This mod will work with any version of SkyUI, this mod only needs to be updated IF they update the base game files... which I highly doubt.
Hide SkyUI is a lightweight utility that disables SkyUI's custom menus, restoring the vanilla Skyrim interface. It's for players who prefer the original UI but still want SkyUI's other benefits, though it's not compatible with Skyrim VR or SkyUI VR.
