Keep in mind that any changes you make to the game with mods will affect the Save game folder. If you started with THEBERBSTER's basic mix of GFO and play the game, then decide that you want to add-in the Balao mod you speak of, you have to empty your C:\Users \UserName \Documents \SH4 folder each time you change the base game, then re-set all your play options, screen resolution, etc., just because of the fact that the game uses that Save folder to run the game from. A mod activation will overwrite files in the game's folder, but not in the Save folder, and the game will not overwrite a file in the Save folder, if it already exists. That can lead to what you describe. Throw in the fact that some mods overwrite some important parts of the mods previously activated, and you could be introducing even more trouble. I would either post in THEBERBSTER's thread, or send him a PM and ask him if he knows which of the mods you want to use are compatible with his mix. Just be sure you clear the save folder between mod changes.
