✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Fixes a real visual annoyance—those seams and the void hole were hard to unsee.
- Small but dedicated following (91 endorsements) and a solid 37k downloads show it's appreciated.
- Keeps the vanilla look intact, so it won't clash with other mods.
⚠️ Cons
- Only one mod author's take—no alternative versions or options.
- No screenshots or in-game previews in the description, so you're flying blind until you test it.
- Last updated in September 2025—might not be compatible with future OpenMW builds.
For OpenMW players who notice and care about the basket's janky mesh and want a cleaner vanilla-friendly fix. Skip if you're not bothered by the original or if you prefer total overhauls.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's a mesh replacement, just drop the files into your OpenMW data directory or use a mod manager—no special setup needed.
- Test it in-game by picking up a basket and rotating it to see the fixed weave and handles.
- If you're using other mesh mods, load this one after them to ensure it takes priority.
