Just a few quick questions from a new SH series newbie

Hey Guys,

I want to thank and compliment everyone here as this has been a huge resource for me today. I purchased the amazon version of SH5 (based on your recommendations) and started looking at mods. I have the mod installer operating fine but was running into an issue.

I looked at a few lists of recommended mods, downloaded them and installed them with the installer utility in the order they were listed. However, i noticed that as i installed certain mods (like dynamic environment and the FX update) i received warnings about overwriting files. I chose not to overwrite the files because i didn't want to cause any issues. I my question really is can you overwrite files that are previously used or modified by a mod installed above it?

As a workaround i decided to install the wolves of steel mega mod. Is that a sufficient workaround or is it better to cherry pick what you want (i guess another reason the mega mod is attractive is because it is a bit dizzying going through all the various mods available as a newcomer).

Any advice or thoughts would be more than appreciated. Thank you again for all the knowledge here!
