🎯 Tips & Tricks
If you're a modder, read the documentation on how to integrate CRAFT into your own mods — it's a framework, not a standalone addition.
For players, you don't need to install this unless a mod specifically requires it as a master.
Check the mod's forum thread for compatibility notes with other frameworks like OBSE.

⚠️ Common Mistakes
- Installing multiple mods that modify the same files without checking compatibility
👍 Pros
- Huge community trust (9,933 endorsements) — this is a staple for Oblivion modding.
- Solves a real problem: schematic conflicts are a pain, and this mod handles it cleanly.
- Lightweight and focused — does one job and does it well.
👎 Cons
- Last updated in 2009 — may be outdated for current modding setups, though Oblivion's modding scene is stable.
- Not for end-users — if you're not a modder, this does nothing for your game.
- Requires understanding of modding frameworks; no in-game content is added.
