⚠️ Common Mistakes
- Installing without checking requirements
👍 Pros
- Huge community trust: 11,332 endorsements and 2.7 million downloads — this is a must-have for physics modding.
- Breathes life into cloaks and capes with realistic HDT-SMP cloth physics.
- Works as a patch, so it's lightweight and doesn't replace your favorite cloak mods.
👎 Cons
