🎯 Tips & Tricks
Since it's an old mod, use a mod manager like Oblivion Mod Manager (OBMM) or Wrye Bash to avoid overwriting issues.
Check if you have other weapon texture mods that might conflict — load order matters in Oblivion.
If you're using the Steam or GOG version, ensure you have the latest official patch installed for best compatibility.
