🎯 Tips & Tricks
If you're using a mod manager, just download and activate — but if you're manual, drop the files into your game's Data folder.
Test on different surfaces (stone, wood, dirt) to hear the fixes — you'll notice the difference immediately.
If you have other mods that change materials or sounds, install this after them to ensure it overwrites correctly.
🔧 Troubleshooting
Mod conflicts
Check load order. Disable conflicting mods one by one.
