✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 747 endorsements and over 175k downloads.
- Combines high-quality assets from well-known mods for a polished result.
- Adds subtle life to a static object, making dungeons feel more immersive.
⚠️ Cons
- Requires three other mods (Animated Clutter, Skeletons Replacer HD, SMIM) to work, which adds setup complexity.
- Potential conflicts with other mods that alter coffin meshes or textures.
- Only affects coffins, so the impact is limited to specific areas.
