🎯 Tips & Tricks
Since it's a GECK-based mod, make sure you have Fallout 3's ArchiveInvalidation Invalidated or a mod manager like FOMM to ensure the files load correctly.
If you're using other visual mods, load DC Moods after them to avoid conflicts, but test in-game to see if the lighting looks right.
Check the mod's comments section on Nexus for user-reported compatibility with popular mods like Fellout or Enhanced Weather.
