📋 About This Mod
NOTE
I have been informed that this mod may interfere with the flashing ground indicator that appears when you activate your 'radar' while searching for a 'hidden' item (treasure hunts, etc). I will look into it if I can, but for now please be aware that it may be an issue.
Monday, December 14, 2015: I had made my mods unavailable temporarily for personal reasons, but in light of the holidays, I've felt inclined to make them public again. Thanks to anyone who has downloaded, endorsed, used, liked, or given feedback on any of my mods. If you enjoy them, then I'm happy.
Ground rings have long been a pet peeve of mine, so I removed them. Well, less 'removed' and more 'made invisible', but close enough.
Mod was tested with Bioware patch 11 (authoritative 12) and the latest version of the Mod Manger, and seems to be functioning without issue. I can't imagine anything would ever conflict with it, but just for the sake of covering my bases, I've edited two files, and nothing else should be affected:
