⚠️ Common Mistakes
- Installing without checking requirements
👍 Pros
- Community favorite (850 endorsements) – clearly fills a need for better mabari visuals.
- Simple retexture that directly addresses a common complaint about the default look.
- Works with both Frosty and DAI mod managers, so you can use it regardless of your setup.
👎 Cons
- Last updated in 2021 – may not be compatible with the latest game patches or DLC.
- Only changes the texture – no mesh or model improvements, so the underlying shape remains the same.
- No screenshots or detailed previews in the description, so you can't see the result before downloading.
