💡 Beginner Tips

  • Check if your game version is compatible with mods from 2010, as older mods often break with updates.
  • Make sure you have explosives in your inventory before attempting to blow a lock, or you'll be stuck.
  • Save before using explosives on locks — the blast might damage nearby items or alert enemies.
