📋 About This Mod

Description

SKSE plugin that removes Bethesda's widescreen implementation from version 1. 6. 1130+.

This can fix issues with swfs that contain widescreen support, removing the need for any unsquish fixes. For example, you'll no longer need to unsquish Edge UI or any other Dear Diary Dark Mode based mod.

Note: You still need swfs that work for your monitor aspect ratio  when using this mod. Skyrim will behave like versions lower than 1. 6. 1130 regarding widescreen and UI scaling with this mod installed.

Compatibility

AE: 1. 6. 1130, 1. 6. 1170, 1. 6. 1179, 1. 7. 99, 1. 7. 104

Make sure you don't have any unsquishing fixes active when using this mod.
