🎯 Tips & Tricks
Since the mod is from 2010, check if your Oblivion version is patched to the latest official update to avoid potential conflicts.
If you use a mod manager like Oblivion Mod Manager (OBMM) or Wrye Bash, install it through that to keep your load order clean.
Test in a dusty interior like a cave or ruin to see the difference before deciding to keep it.
