💡 Beginner Tips

  • Make sure you have the latest versions of IED and OAR installed before adding this mod, as it depends on their animation framework.
  • Use a mod manager like MO2 to install and manage the files, and check the mod's page for any load order notes.
  • Test the new nodes in third person to see the animations clearly, and adjust IED settings if weapons clip through your character.
