Level up text stuck on my screen

[ScMerlin]

It has been stuck on my screen for 27 hours of play time now, never goes away. Anyone know the fix?

Seems to be a common problem when running the game at high resolutions. There's a mod in the nexus that attempts a fix but it's rather out of date. The best way to fix this at the moment would be to edit the Translate_ENGLISH.txt from your Skyrim Data folder, find the line that begins "$LEVEL UP", and blank out the text to the right of that. The folder should be something like the following:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Skyrim\Data\Interface

Ok, thanks for the tip! Is there any ill-effects of this?

[ScMerlin]

I tried leaving it blank, but then the game menu puts a $ in almost everythng, like $new and $load and so on. Removing the entry complete puts a $levelup in screen. Am i doin something wrong?

If you leave a space in place of the second "LEVEL UP" you should be fine

You should just hightlight the "level up" text and press space, that should leave a space in its place

I wasn't able to follow along with those instructions.... Maybe Im a dim wit... What I did was edit my Translate _English Text document so it reads EXACTLY as follows

$Level Progress Level Progress
$LEVEL UP _
$Light Fade Light Fade

Note: Basically just highlight where your file reads the extra LEVEL UP and enter only 1 underscore and then Save file. LEAVE THE SPACES WHERE THEY ARE... Re launch game... and now you can enjoy without that stupid message on the screen. Such great resolution compared to consoles. I am completely sold on Computer game play being the future.

LEVEL UP SHOWING.
If you have the new super resolution feature for Nvidia cards then you can use either of these fixes.

Easy. If you exit out of the game, open the launcher on your desktop (or wherever it lives), then set your display resolution setting to 1920x1080, if it's on the 4K resolution (the largest available resolution). It worked for me, but as usual YMMV.
