📋 About This Mod
Description
Cities of the North - Falkreath is a great mod, however, it can cause heavy performance drops even on vanilla game, that's why I decided to make a lite version. Almost 300 objects were disabled to improve performance. This mod doesn't have an esp, the ini file for Base Object Swapper was made via ESP to BOS'Inator (xEdit Script)
