One of the very top developers of HSFX wrote to me in PM that the basic structure of HSFX 5.0 is the same as HSFX before this.
Given that information, some mods are best installed in a MODS folder in the registry. Within the MODS folder, certain mods will require another one, such as MAPMODS or MODS. Some have their own installer to handle creating folders and files.
Follow the instructions given by the modder who created the mod on how to best install his mod.
With that said, various mods will be installed according to instructions.
Many mods can be installed into the JSGME Mods Enabler. Others are installed into files.
Most mods are quite easy to install, as you know.

I want to be clear on the absolutely right way to add maps , mods & planes .In every other modded version I've been doing most of these things would be placed in a "Mods "folder with STD files inside,AND using JSGME for mods designed for that purpose( usually that include a files folder first...) As far as I can see in HSFX 5.0 (Edited) install there is no "Mods" folder included & all these new planes & maps are in Files folder...right so far? So what to do? Make a "Mods "folder & proceed like before,add effects & planes here & change STD in files folder? ? What about the myriad of effects in my other installs-new Mods folder or add them to JSGME? Should I make a new MapsMods folder for the new Mods folder & add new maps here?
I did read thru the various readmes that came with this great mod package , but somehow I've missed this instructional on these issues..I apologize if it is right there & I just missed it & now am asking a stupid question.
Also do I keep updating SAS buttons in the Gui folder?
This is a great package & I want to do it right( for a change!!!)
Thanks!
