📋 About This Mod
This mod is for if you have BIG RED SQUARES WITH ! MARKS IN THE MIDDLE and you dont want to see them any more. Keep in mind though with this mod you will not see the big red error marker any more, but whatever texture/mesh that was missing, will still be missing. I made this becasue i have a conflict i can not resolve with 1 of my 100 mods, it put the red [!] mark error on every 1/50 or so raiders yet these specific raiders seemed to have no issues. This fix I did made my game playable again, so I thaught it might help others too.
