🎯 Tips & Tricks
Since the mod is from 2015, check if your game version is compatible before installing—older mods may break with updates.
If you're using a mod manager, install it manually by placing the file in your game's Data folder to avoid conflicts.
Test the mod on a new character first to see if it works as expected, as it may not affect existing saves.
