Immersive HUD – iHUD
Get the best of both worlds. The usefulness of having a HUD with the immersion of having none.
What is iHUD?
The aim of iHUD is to provide the immersive feel you get from having no HUD, whilst keeping the usefulness of having one. It takes the permanantly visible HUD elements such as compass and crosshair, and hides them when not needed. Hence the motto:
HUD when you need. HIDE when you don’t.
Important
This mod requires SKSE.

What does it let you do?
1. Toggle the compass with the ‘x’ key. You can change this through the MCM settings or by going to console and typing ‘set iHUDKey to X’ where X is the numerical scancode for the key.
2. The crosshair is only visible when using a ranged weapon/staff or a spell, or when hovering over an activatable item.
3. Allows you to change the transparancy of the compass and crosshair seperately (see video).
4. Floating quest markers only visible when the compass is visible (see video).
5. Allow you to remove the sneak meter, but keep the crosshair when using bow, staff or spell (see video).
6. Speeds up how fast the magicka, health and stamina bars disappear once you regain 100%.
