@Dale XIII Glad it's working out for you! And yeah, I guess I should have mentioned the other fixes it provides are huge. I don't know how exactly, but installing it also reduced my load times. I am very happy with that mod :D

@2PercentNate I've been using the Extension Plugin off your recommendation and it has indeed been an improvement over the other solutions. Some of the other features you didn't mention are massive as well, good looking out bro

Will keep in mind, thanks for the reply

Also, side note — NCE removes cut efficiency entirely, which breaks one of Kenshi’s coolest combat mechanics. If you want balanced armor without losing that feature, use Kenshi Extension Plugin instead:

It actually fixes the system instead of deleting it. Plus it saves you a pile of NCE patches — way cleaner load order overall.

@Dale XIII None of my Redux mods touch armor stats — they just fix crafting menus, add new benches, and allow unlocking things through research. NCE shouldn’t affect or be affected by them in any way.

these work with NCE?
