💡 Beginner Tips

  • Since it's an Oblivion mod, use a mod manager like OBMM or Wrye Bash to avoid conflicts.
  • Check if the mod is compatible with your game version — it's from 2008, so test on a save you don't care about.
  • If you use other merchant mods, load order might matter — put this after them to ensure lockpicks appear.
