💡 Beginner Tips
- Since this mod adds to leveled lists, it's compatible with most load orders, but place it after major overhaul mods to ensure its items appear.
- Use a mod manager like Wrye Bash to install and manage this mod, as it's an older file and may need manual sorting.
- If you're playing on a modern setup, consider using the Oblivion Script Extender (OBSE) for better stability, though this mod doesn't require it.
