✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid community support with 375 endorsements and over 40k downloads
- No worldspace edits means lower risk of conflicts with other mods
- Base Object Swapper approach is clean and performance-friendly
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in January 2022, so it may not be compatible with the latest Skyrim updates
