SH5 is like a new game now. Do we need a revised manual?

NO ACRONYMS, i repeat NO ACRONYMS IN INSTRUCTIONS, which are plentiful but useless without a google search for each one :0. Poor example of first response on forums of someone just reinstalled and heard there was some cool mods out there. - "Ya just download mom with dbsm and al install the first two with jsgmbe but then the other one just stick your game folder, then load up fml and your set for suicide." Bad bad bad.

This is my first post on the forum but most community run games have a group of regulars who are very helpful. Now before you say why don't you write one, i plan to once i figure out how to install all 50,000 of these mods successfully on an XP/vista/7 machine with step by step from putting the disc into the drive, to installing all of the mods.

That was more of a rant of the difficulties of installation and not so much a manual, which once im installed and ready to go, I'm sure i'll be in need of one.
