🎯 Tips & Tricks
Use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2 to avoid overwriting other NPC appearance mods.
If you use other mods that change bandit or vampire outfits, load Hooded Outlaws after them to ensure hoods appear.
Check the optional file for Conjurers and Necromancers if you want those covered too.
