📋 About This Mod
This is a remake of Nordic UI start menu, with full support of AE. The goal was to end with the same start menu we all know and love from Nordic UI, but remade from scratch using newest vanilla assets for better stability and compatibility, like support for Creations menu entry.
Tested with mouse, keyboard and gamepad.
As a bonus I've included optional loading screen UI with bigger text.

This mod remakes the Nordic UI start menu from scratch using the latest vanilla assets, ensuring full compatibility with Skyrim Anniversary Edition and the Creations menu.
