📋 About This Mod

A fantasy UI replacer, skin for Dear Diary Dark and TrueHUD. Modular installation through the FOMOD

Immortal UI is a complete user interface replacer/reskin for Skyrim SE (including Anniversary Edition), reflecting the essence of Magic and Steel that define the land of Tamriel, Nirn, and the planes beyond.

It is built as a replacer for Dear Diary Dark Mode by uranreactor. Dear Diary comes with an abundance of QoL improvements and support for other mods built in and is a fantastic base to build reskins on to take advantage of these features. Check it's page for more details and a compatibility list

Installation and Requirements

[]Requirements:

SkyUI - obviously the base for Skyrim's UI
Dear Diary Dark - WHITE VERSION ONLY, or you'll end up with some screens that mix the text colour.
SkyHUD - Required for the Compass reskin, and the HUD more generally if you're not planning to use TrueHUD
TrueHUD - Highly recommended for HUD replacement
I also recommend Oblivion-Like Loading Menus and Oxygen Meter 2 which both have patches included in the FOMOD.
Patches also included for Custom Skills Menu and Compass Navigation Overhaul and C. O. C. K. S

[]Installation:

Simply download and install this mod with your preferred mod manager. A FOMOD installer will guide you through each step and allow you to choose which parts to install (incase you have a preference for Dear Diary Dark or even vanilla SkyUI on some menus - but I recommend you install everything for visual consistency). NOTE: The main menu is a bit creative with the way it uses overlays, and I've not tested it on a non-16:9 resolution. You may wish to skip that if you're using ultrawide (or give it a try to see if it works or not), and then take a look at the Dear Diary config file to move the buttons back centrally.

After installation, there are a few ways you can customise the appearance through the config features of Dear Diary and SkyHUD.

Dear Diary config can be found in interface\deardiary_dm\config.txt, check the Dear Diary Dark mod page for details of what can be configured, and the file itself explains quite clearly how it works

The SkyHUD config can be found in interface/skyhud/skyhud.txt, and if you're using TrueHUD you won't need to worry about many of it's options. You can however swap between the default compass and a subtle notched compass by adjusting the value on row 56 'bAltCompass= 1' will give you the default thin compass, and 0 the notched compass.

Maiandra Font

The final step of installation will offer you the chance to install the Maiandra font, adjusted
