_____________________________________________________________________________________
This mod is safe to use on both new and existing save games in all difficulty modes.
However, with any game you modify, it is always a good idea to make a backup of your
save game files before making any changes.

(save games are located at "...\Steam\userdata\*userid_or_number*\239140\" folder)
