Advise please. New comer to SH5 & cutting ones teeth on Sober's mega collection.

Hi folks,

I'd really appreciate a little guidance. I'm an old SH3 & GWX player who just bought SH5. As i heard it was much improved with the patch & mods.

I was advised to use Sober's huge mod collection. I like it tough and realistic! My PC is a pretty good beast that hardware wise should have little with any of this.

I initially downloaded the 'one file' version that is somewhat outdated. I did have a few issues, to say the least, but there potentially was a number of reasons for this. But i won't go into that, I think i screwed up the generic patcher.

I'm in the process of downloading them all individually and get the upto date versions.

So this is what i need help with... there is a huge number of mods that drastically change the game, a game i am unfamiliar with. The learning curve for me is massive. I'm pretty busy with running a business & kids etc, but would love to have some downtime on SH5 but it is proving more than a little over whelming.

What do i need to read up on to be able to play? What mods? What guides? When i loaded up the modded game before i was so lost with 100s of mods not knowing what they were doing etc. It was hopeless.

I get the impression the keys ones i need to understand are NewUIs & Open Horizons. But any help and guidance to get me going would be REALLY appreciated, as of right now i'm teetering between persevering and just binning the game.

Thanks for any help from an over whelmed SH5 newbie!
