Skip if you prefer the vanilla looting or don't want to risk compatibility issues.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure to check if the mod requires a specific game version or framework – the description doesn't mention any, but it's always good to verify.
- If you're using other mods that change NPC inventory, test this mod early to see if they conflict.
- Since the mod makes corpses naked when you take equipped items, be prepared for some funny or awkward scenes.
