🎯 Tips & Tricks
Make sure NVSE is installed and launched via the NVSE loader, not the vanilla exe, or the mod won't work.
Use a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2 to keep track of your mods — it'll make uninstalling or troubleshooting easier.
Check the mod's comments or forum for player reports on which attributes got changed — the description doesn't list specifics.

⚠️ Common Mistakes
- Installing without checking requirements
👍 Pros
- Huge community trust (1,641 endorsements, 648k downloads) — this is a well-loved fix
- Directly addresses a common complaint about useless SPECIAL stats
- Lightweight and focused — does one thing and does it well
👎 Cons
- Requires NVSE, so you'll need to install that first if you haven't
- No detailed feature list in the description — you'll have to discover the changes in-game
- Last updated January 2025 — could be outdated if the game updates (though unlikely for NV)
