Okay, so following the step by step mod installation in vpmedia's thread, I'm going to rename the files folder from the soundmod and pop it into the mods folder.
So...when installing the Bf-109 mods of Hun in the Sun, do I rename the "files" folders and pop them into the mods folder? What should I rename them as? Do they need to overwrite some files in the old files folder, which is now the Soundmods folder inside the mods directory? So do I put these mods into the soundmods folder?
Is there any special order you have to copy/paste adjustments to the fileslist.txt or in other words can I just copypaste wherever I want in the fileslist or does it have to be in alphabetical order or something?
Is there any chance one of the staff might make each of these 109 mods an exe for trouble free installation?
Being there's two different file formats that have been used by AAA for mods (files directory and mods directory) this has made manual mod installation extremely confusing and it seems to me conflicts are going to be an increasing problem unless future mods and older mod updates like this one, are updated also in the way they are installed. It might not be a problem for modders but if you're trying to pick up modding (where a lot of stuff is left unsaid), it's frustrating when you get conflicts and don't know where to begin looking.
