🎯 Tips & Tricks
Since it's a replacer, make sure you don't have other mods that alter the same metal armor meshes—load order conflicts can cause visual glitches.
Use a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2 to easily enable/disable and avoid overwriting files manually.
Check the mod's comments section on Nexus for user screenshots and any reported issues before installing.
🔧 Troubleshooting
Mod conflicts
Check load order. Disable conflicting mods one by one.
