About this mod

Skyrim, but I flipped it around backwards

Have you ever wanted to play Skyrim, but backwards? No? Weird.

This mod uses a Reshade shader to mirror the entire game, ReshadeshadeEffectsToggler (REST) to exclude the UI from the Reshade Mirror Shader, and edits to the UI and controls. The result is Mirror Mode Skyrim. Sure it's a little scuffed, but it's 100% playable and I think it's pretty neat.

Should be safe to install or uninstall at any time. 

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
  • Install SkyUI and the Pt 1 Mod file as you would any other mod.
  • Install Reshade with full add-on support and during install select the add-on ReshadeshadeEffectsToggler (REST) by 4lex4ander (when installing Reshade, the add-on page is the page after the shader page).
  • place the Mirror.fx file (found in the Pt 2 mod file) In your \Skyrim Special Edition\reshade-shaders\Shaders
  • Place the ReshadeEffectShaderToggler.ini (found in the Pt 2 mod file) in your base Skyrim folder. The same folder that SkyrimSE.exe is in.
  • In skyrimprefs.ini underneath [Controls] set your fMouseHeadingSensitivity to a negative value and set bInvertYValues=1
  • Enable the Mirror shader (MirrorScreen [mirror.fx]) in-game through the Reshade menu (default key to open is Home).
  • In your Skyrim Controls menu, swap your Left and Right movement keys.

Known Issues
  • Audio from the game is not mirrored. This one is frustrating, but there are workarounds. Equalizer APO or another a third party application should be able to reverse your left and right audio channels. Or you just could wear your headset backwards like the cool kids are doing.
  • On the map screen (world map and mini-map), the position of the icons is not the same as the location your mouse needs to be to select them. If an icon is on the left side of your screen, you need to move your mouse to the right of your screen to hover it and select it for fast travel, and vice versa. Any icons in the middle of your screen are exactly where they seem to be.
  • Selecting anything in the console menu works similar to above. If it's on the left side of your screen, you need to click the right side of your screen to select it.
  • Only works with keyboard and mouse. I can't figure out how to reverse the input on gamepad.
These are issues because I don't know how to fix them. If anyone can come up with fixes, feel free to post a patch and/or a comment and I'll add the fix to the main mod if you want.
