Could we get a basic/simple guide to installing Mods? (Please)

Thought I might get more responses here.

from Sins Forums
    I did 4 searches on how exactly to install mods and got nothing of value. While I understand this board is more directed at making and distributing mods I think maybe a sticky for all of us noobs would be nice.

So where do I install the Mod I downloaded?

Do I need to back up anything?

How do I uninstall this Mod?

Can I have multiple Mods installed?

Can I use Mods in multiplayer?

Will this mod turn my computer into something resembling skynet and take over the world?


I was hoping to get a sticky for all the noobs, myself included!

I just did a simple copy of my other thread, I am hoping someone will respond. I have been looking for quite a while and haven't found anything!

It's just a matter of copying mod data into {your profile}\local settings\application data\Ironclad Games\Sins of a Solar Empire\Mods\{modname}

Assuming your name was joe, under 2000/XP {your profile} would be c:\Documents and settings\joe

- if you didn't change the defaults (and I guess you didn't :) ).

Ok, I did that. Do I need to enable it or should it be good to go?

I am just hoping to compile this info so others can just look here!
