🎯 Tips & Tricks
If you're using the Steam or GOG version, manually drop the mod folder into your 'Mods' directory in the game's installation folder.
For mod managers like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2, install via the manager and ensure it's enabled in your load order.
If you're on the next-gen update, test the mod early—it may need a compatibility patch or may not work at all.
