🎯 Tips & Tricks
Since the mod uses vanilla textures, it's safe to install mid-playthrough, but always make a save before adding any mod.
If you're using a mod manager like Vortex or MO2, let it handle the file placement to avoid overwriting issues.
Check if the weapons are craftable at forges; if not, use the console command 'help weapon' to find their IDs and add them manually.
