📋 About This Mod
Hi, after years in this community, I want to tell you something:
1) Modders do work voluntarily and for free for you, so they probably deserve a little respect.
2) "Please" and "thanks" are magic words. "Endorse" is a clickable button.
3) When you treat modders like your servants and just keep asking for something, you only get the modders to stop publishing their work (as many good modders have already done) and you don't get anything.
4) And please check if the mod description confirms to be compatible to your game version, whether it's Classic 1. 32 or Next Gen 4. 04. Modders don't have time and resource to support both version.
Installation:
