💡 Beginner Tips

  • Make sure you have kNVSE installed and activated before adding this mod, or the animations won't work.
  • If you're using a mod manager like Vortex or MO2, let it handle the file placement to avoid overwriting issues.
  • Check the optional replacer file – if you don't want to replace existing rifles, stick with the standalone version.
