📋 About This Mod

Mod Explanation

I have worked on these assets for some time now, and after failing to implement some animations into the roof of these shacks, I looked at other parts of these assets which could use some improvements, I firstly changed the geometry of the mesh to make it more manageable, and then I began working through each hanging fish and adding the appropriate effects to achieve the result you see now.

overall its a very low impact mod, have had many users before claim they have absolutely zero impact on performance. they run fine and can be installed very easily and usually work with any texture replacers you have. as long as you don't encounter an overwrite on install, you are all good to go! as simple as that.
