⚠️ Common Mistakes

Installing multiple mods that modify the same files without checking compatibility

👍 Pros

Community favorite with 493 endorsements and over 100k downloads—clearly a go-to for visual polish.
One-and-done install: just drop it in and every metal barrel in the wasteland looks sharper.
Lightweight and performance-friendly since it's just models and textures, no script overhead.

👎 Cons

Last updated in 2021—might not be fully compatible with the latest Fallout 4 patches or next-gen update.
Only affects metal barrels, so if you're after a broader texture overhaul, this is a niche piece.
No detailed install instructions or compatibility notes from the author, so you're on your own if issues pop up.
