💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure to edit the Fallout76Custom.ini file in your Documents\My Games\Fallout 76 folder — not the game's root directory.
- If you want multiple items to glow, you'll need to merge the .ba2 files or use a mod manager like Vortex to handle conflicts.
- Test with a single item first (like Caps) to verify the glow works before adding more.
