✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge community trust (32,163 endorsements) — this is a proven framework
- Massive adoption (1.1M downloads) means lots of player feedback and testing
- Actively updated (August 2026) — you're not installing abandoned code
⚠️ Cons
- Framework mods often require other mods to be useful — you'll need to find compatible content yourself
- May conflict with other relationship or marriage mods — test carefully
For players who want to break the one-spouse limit and create polyamorous or roommate-with-spouse setups. If you're tired of vanilla marriage restrictions and want more freedom in your character's love life, this is your mod. Skip if you're happy with the vanilla relationship system or prefer simple one-spouse marriages.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's a framework, look for other mods that add romance dialogue or events to take full advantage of multiple spouses.
- Check the mod's forum or comments for known compatibility patches with popular marriage mods.
- If you're using a mod manager, install this first and let it overwrite any conflicting files.
