Hey dude and you are not likely to read my answer, I understand this is a very old topic but I think my post will help someone

 

I was now looking for the solution and could not find it on the internet.

 

So I did a bit of trail and error in the BTmod configuration file and discovered how to do that.

 

1) Open up the \Oblivion\Data\menus\main\hud_main_menu.xml

2) Search for the following section: <text name="temp_countdown">

3) Delete or comment the whole section (until the next </text> closing tag)

Just in case you are XML dummy, here is what you need to delete:

			<text name="temp_countdown">
				<depth> 3 </depth>
				<alpha> 0
					<copy src="Imp_UI_Settings" trait="_aecta"/>
					<onlyif>
						<copy src="parent()" trait="user1"/>	<!-- time left < 0 for constant effects -->
						<gte>0</gte>
					</onlyif>
				</alpha>
				<red> <copy src="Imp_UI_Settings" trait="_aectr"/> </red>
				<green> <copy src="Imp_UI_Settings" trait="_aectg"/> </green>
				<blue> <copy src="Imp_UI_Settings" trait="_aectb"/> </blue>
				<font> <copy src="Imp_UI_Settings" trait="_aectf"/> </font>
				<x>
					<copy src="parent()" trait="width"/>
					<sub src="me()" trait="width"/>
					<div>2</div>
					<onlyif src="Imp_UI_Settings" trait="_aectxc"/>
					<add src="Imp_UI_Settings" trait="_aectx"/>
				</x>
				<y> <add src="Imp_UI_Settings" trait="_aecty"/> </y>
				<_integer>
					<copy src="parent()" trait="user1"/>
					<ceil> 0 </ceil>
				</_integer>
				<string>
					<copy src="me()" trait="_integer"/>
				</string>
			</text>

Instead of deleting, you can also comment the section. To do that, add <!-- before it, and --> at the end. You also need to remove the closing of the comment inside (<!-- time left < 0 for constant effects --> - you need to remove --> at the end)

4) Save the xml file and enjoy

 

I also fixed another annoying thing in the BTmod. The "Breath" word near the breath meter and the percentage.

So to remove them, you need to edit \Oblivion\Data\menus\breath_meter_menu.xml file

1) Search for <text name="breath_title">, <text name="breath_text">, <text name="breath_text_ds">, <text name="breath_pect">, <text name="breath_pect_ds"> sections

2) In each section, find the <alpha> tag and change the value to 0 (so it will be <alpha> 0 </alpha>)

3) Save the xml file and enjoy :smile:

 

Update:

one more fix for BTmod: 125% durability weapon health bar. By default it looks quite ugly (the slider is beyond the bar)

1) Open up the \Oblivion\Data\menus\main\hud_main_menu.xml

2) search for <image name="hudmain_durability_full">

3) In that section, find <div> 100 </div>

4) Change 100 to 125 and save

5) Done :)
