Ok. What if I dont install a mega mod like HSFX? I have to create myself a folder and name it "MODS" and extract the small mod there?

Sorry to bother you Ted. :| I am a mega newbie :-?

You never bother me mate, I only went to lunch ;o)

if you want to install mods one by one, you only need to have a version of your game that is allowing Mods, such as 4.08m, 4.09m, 4.10, 4.10.1

if you have one of those versions, you can create your MODS folder and copy paste your mods here.

But i suggest you to take a mod pack, even if they are long to download, because :

- now all the most famous mods have been integrated into those packs,
- you won't have to install new objects one by one (as an example, if you want to install a new plane, you have to copy paste into your mod folder, to update Button file which is into a specific folder, and to copy paste some code lines into 3 files which are into other specific folders...)
=> If you install mods one by one, it will take you a lot of time, really much more than if you had a modpack, and quickly you will have a big Mod folder with a lot of Mods, you might have some crashes, the game's loading will be longer...

So I really suggest you to take a mod pack ;o)


3 or 4 years ago, we had to install mods one by one, because no modpacks had been developped. I remember, you passt more time to install your mods, to test them one by one, to load them... than to play...:lol: Now those packs includes all the better mods, the more realistic effects (gunlights, gunsmokes, tracers, smokes...), with many new planes, it is easier to install and you have less risk of crashes during loading...
Check into our forums presntations of HSFX, UltraPack, Histomod (my favourite), and make your choice.

Keep me update, so I can help you if you need it ;o)
