💡 Beginner Tips

  • Since it's a texture mod, you can install it manually by dropping the files into your Data folder, but using a mod manager like Vortex or MO2 makes it easier to uninstall if needed.
  • Make sure to load this mod before other mods that alter the same textures to avoid conflicts – check your load order.
  • If you're using an ENB, you might need to adjust settings to get the best look, but the mod should work fine out of the box.
