✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Does exactly what it says: cleans up item tooltips so you can read stats at a glance
- Lightweight UI tweak that won't touch your gameplay balance
- Decent track record with 60 endorsements and 7k downloads
⚠️ Cons
- English-only – if you play in another language, you're out of luck
- Last updated in 2023, so it might not be compatible with the latest Skyrim patches or other UI mods
- Small mod with a niche focus – if you're after bigger UI overhauls, this won't cover that
For Skyrim players who find the default item tooltips too wordy and want a quick, no-fuss fix to see the important stats. Skip if you're looking for a full UI overhaul or play in a non-English language.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's a UI mod, make sure to place it after other UI mods in your load order to avoid conflicts.
- If you use a mod manager, preview the tooltip in-game to confirm the changes look right before committing.
- Check if your other mods modify item tooltips – if so, this mod might override or be overridden.
