🎯 Tips & Tricks
Since it's a texture replacer, just drop the files into your Data folder or use a mod manager like Nexus Mods' Vortex.
If you use the optional files, make sure to install the main file first, then overwrite with the optional ones.
Check the mod's posts section for any user-reported compatibility notes with DLC or other armor mods.

⚠️ Common Mistakes
- Installing multiple mods that modify the same files without checking compatibility
👍 Pros
- Huge community trust with 6,644 endorsements and 154k downloads

- Optional decal and helmet recolor let you tweak the look without extra mods
👎 Cons

- Only affects Combat Armor, so other armor types stay vanilla
- No screenshots or install instructions in the description, so you're flying blind
