📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-trusted with 254 endorsements and 5,669 downloads
- Fills a real gap—lets you use HPP's detailed candles without losing STaC's smoke
- Lightweight patch, no bloat, just does one job
⚠️ Cons
- Requires both High Poly Project and Smoking Torches and Candles to be installed, adding setup complexity
- Last updated in 2022, so may not be compatible with newer versions of either mod
- Only affects candles—if you want smoke on torches too, you'll need other patches

💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have both High Poly Project and Smoking Torches and Candles installed before adding this patch, and load the patch after them in your mod order.
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2 to install this patch—it's a simple file drop, but a manager keeps your load order clean.
- Check the mod's posts or comments for any user reports about compatibility with the latest versions of HPP or STaC, since the patch hasn't been updated since 2022.
