💡 Beginner Tips

  • Since this mod likely uses a text file or script, check the mod's file structure after downloading to see if there's a readme or config file.
  • If you're using a mod manager like Vortex or MO2, install it normally and let the manager handle file placement.
  • Test in-game by summoning a skeleton and see if the new names appear; if not, check for conflicts with other mods that modify summoning.
