📋 About This Mod
Description
===========
Makes all Merchant Chests accessible in the stores so that they can be looted. Each chest is locked by the respective store key. This Redone version places the chests by script and no longer directly touches the shop cells, so the cell names are no longer forcefully changed to english. Additionally, one or two shops that were missing have also got their chests added.
Please tell me if you happen to find a shop that doesn't have their chests accessible.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Simple and functional: lets you loot merchant chests without breaking the game.
- Script-based placement means fewer conflicts with other mods that edit shop cells.
- Community-tested with 94 endorsements and over 2,100 downloads.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2019 — may not be compatible with the latest Skyrim versions or other mods.
