5. Important Notes:

This mod doesn't alter any defined elements in the original game, whatsoever (not even spells).
The default game (Vanilla) is completely preserved. Therefore, it's inherently compatible with all types of mods.

If you're experiencing difficulty synchronizing your actions during duels, encountering graphical issues, or feeling latency, it's likely due to your computer struggling to keep up (and possibly because the game engine isn't the most current). The higher and more stable your FPS, the fewer issues you'll encounter. Therefore, don't hesitate to adjust your graphics settings downwards or make concessions on some resource-intensive mods running in the background.
