ZAP devices will auto-fit to body slides. | | Alternate Start - Live Another Life | Yes | Some alternate starts (e.g., "I am a slave") require ZAP to avoid naked T-poses. | | Open Cities Skyrim | Yes | No direct conflict, but bound maneuvering through city gates can lag. | | Immersive Armors | Yes | ZAP uses custom armor slots (55-61) that do not conflict with vanilla slots. |
