Troubleshooting

  • Interior not loading: check dlclist.xml entry and ensure path is correct
  • Floating objects: MLO coordinates mismatch — verify the mod matches your game version
  • Collision issues: missing .ybn collision files — ensure all files from the package are installed
  • Performance drop: high-poly interiors may reduce FPS — use LOD versions if available
