I've installed MTUI, MCM, and IHUD and none are working. I have NVSE installed correctly, as well. Is there an ini tweak I need to do so that Hud mods will work? there's no mention of such a tweak in any of the installs, but that's all I can think of to fix this. Any help would be great! thanks.

In fact, it sounds like you are new to mods, so I would watch the whole series before you install one more mod.

Pay attention to all the mod tools that are needed and what you have to do with them.
