How to install

3. (Optional) If you're using Nemesis then download additional missing behavior file and use MO to install or manually extract to Data folder then run Nemesis with Character Behavior Enhanced option checked.
Known Issue
If NPC is spinning wildly on kill move, go into Nemesis_Engine\mod\zcbe\0_master and delete #0340.txt, #0341.txt and #2489.txt then run Nemesis again, that should fix the issue at the cost of some features from original CBE mod.
