🎯 Tips & Tricks
If you're using a mod manager like ME3Tweaks Mod Manager, just drop the mod file in and it'll handle the rest.
Make sure to launch the game with the mod manager's 'Modded' option to ensure the mod is applied.
This mod only affects weight penalty, so you can still use other gameplay mods without conflict—just check load order if you have multiple mods.
