- No FPS hit reported, so you get sharper textures without sacrificing performance.
- High-res textures make Bravil look noticeably better without overhauling the whole game.

- The city gate is left untouched, so it may look out of place next to the improved textures.

💡 Beginner Tips
- Since this mod only affects Bravil, you can easily test it by fast-traveling there after installation.
- If you're using a mod manager like OBMM or Wrye Bash, install it as a BAIN package or just drop the textures folder into your Data directory.
- Check if you have any other Bravil texture mods—this one should overwrite them, but load order matters if you use multiple texture packs.
