First of all, Hello! I am new to these forums and new to SH5. I have been Playing the game for a couple days, in vanilla, and think it's pretty great, minus the obvious bugs, with lots of potential.
Due to the bugs, I found my self on these forums quite often after googling numerous questions, most of which I found answers to, and also recognizing this as a friendly an active community. My hats off to all of you, Reminds me a lot of the forums for the game 'Orbiter'. Friendly, Knowledgeable, Active.
On to My question... Can I manually Install mods into SH5? Such as, Downloading the file, Unzipping and what not, and finally dragging and dropping modded files to the corresponding Vanilla ones.
I know this could be a mod to mod basis but, in general, is it a working option? Specifically, Is it possible if SH5 was downloaded Via Steam.
I ask because After watching a video of Open Horizons being installed in such a way (unspecified whether or not is was a steam version) and it seems easier than trying to replace the .EXE file with a Ubisoft version, Which I could not get to work. I'm also okay with spending extensive time troubleshooting my own Mod list compatibility (If any of you are players of Kerbal Space Program, you might understand that Sentiment). More over, I saw that JSGME has been unworking for some time, so it seems I dont have any option.
Getting anymore specific, would TDW work in such a way? From My understanding, TDW Generic Patcher seems like the Foundation Mod, and should be considered Vanilla 2.0.
If anyone Could help me out with some info or a link to a topic like this, I would Really Appreciate it. :)
