Wierd widget on screen, some HUD mod

I've spent the past day, fixing my skyrim install by jumping from SE, to the latest version, and back to the last good AE Version

 

From updating mods and finally getting the game fully working, i've now got these bars on my screen, 2 bottom bars are constantly moving, I just have no idea what mod is causing it

 

Im using Dear Diary, trueHUD, moreHUD, and I've had to get "Widescreen Scale Removed" and another patch to fix squished message boxes, so I really have no clue whats causing it now

As long as you don't have some generic HUD widget framework mod (can't remember what moreHUD was capable of) then you're looking for a mod that contains a SWF file. Shouldn't be too many of those; easy to find.

Thanks, after disabling a few, i managed to figure out it was moreHUD that was causing the issue

 

 

Now ive got another problem, the pause menu (And other base UI stuff)

 

I have $signs on certain bits of text

Oh. I have moreHUD here as well but don't recall it having any extra bits like that. Odd.

Ok, how would I fix it without verifying the files via steam?

SteamCMD, download Skyrim into a separate folder and copy the files over.

 

Edit: The language files might be will be in their own depot. You don't actually have to download the entire game. The depot and manifest numbers can be found on steamdb.

Ok, done some research and come back to it, I think im gonna live with the broken text, all thats wrong is one string if I load the game with a missing mod

 

 

 

Also, with the initial issue, the fix was to move to the previous version of morehud, it added that bug and has been reported on nexus I found through my research 🙄

Just need to fathom out the new SGO updates and configs I need to catch up on now

I found that MoreHUD has released a fix version for this weird HUD thing. Its on their nexus mod page, 2nd option. .  It fixed mine!
