🎯 Tips & Tricks
Since this mod is from 2008, check if you're using Fallout 3's latest patch or any mod managers that might affect load order.
If you're using a mod manager like FOMM, just drop the file into your Data folder and activate it—no complex setup.
Test the carry weight change early to see if it fits your playstyle; you can always remove the mod if it feels too cheaty.
