⚠️ Cons

💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure to back up your Fallout4.INI before editing, and use a text editor like Notepad++ to avoid encoding issues.
- After extracting the 'data' folder, double-check that the pipboy folder is in Data\animobjects\pipboy—a wrong path breaks the skin.
- If you use other mods that edit the same INI line, merge them carefully to avoid conflicts.
