✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge download count (415k+) shows it's a go-to for texture overhauls.
- PBR materials make ores pop with realistic lighting and depth.
- Active updates mean it's likely compatible with current Skyrim versions.
⚠️ Cons
- PBR textures may require an ENB or specific lighting setup to look their best.
- Only covers ores and ingots, not other mining-related items like pickaxes.
