🎯 Tips & Tricks
Since it's a standalone tool, download the latest version from the Files tab and extract to a folder — no mod manager needed.
If you're translating a mod, start with the automatic translation feature to get a base, then refine with the heuristic suggestions.
For Fallout 4, make sure your game is not running when you extract/inject BSA files to avoid file locks.
