📋 About This Mod
As far as I know, no one was ever banned for using the original lock picking mod. That one still works but the backend has gotten a bit out of step with the rest of the game, so I figured I'd give it a quick refresh. This version is based on Patch 8 (updated 3/30).
For increased immersion, the overlay only triggers when you're down to your last pick. It's not cheating ... it's just Nerd Rage for locks.
A UI mod for Fallout 4 that adds a visual overlay when you're down to your last lockpick, based on Patch 8. It refreshes an older mod for better compatibility. With 326 endorsements and 7,268 downloads, it's a niche but appreciated immersion enhancer.

💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's a UI mod, you can install it manually by dropping files into your Data folder, but using a mod manager like Vortex is safer for load order.
- Make sure you have the game's Patch 8 or later, as the mod is based on that version.
- If you're using other UI mods, test this one in a save with a locked container to ensure no conflicts.
