[]EXISTING SAVES
Long story short, we recommend to start a new game when installing this mod. We still haven't completely figured out how eFPS behaves with existing saves. One of our tester reported FPS drops on their very old heavily-modded savefile while getting the expected FPS boost on new games. Other testers with more recent savefiles reported noissues with eFPS, and could benefit from the FPS boost without having to start from scratch. Still, we feel it's safer to start a new game and that's our official recommendation.
