Click on the **Addon Options** tab, and press the blue plus sign on the right. In this window, you can navigate to wherever you would like to store the addons. |
| - | Note, some of the mods we use may be different from versions found elsewhere. For example, in @ace we’ve omitted the ace_aircraft PBO because of conflict with RHS aircraft HUDs or in the RHS AFRF folder we’ve included a hotfix to fix crashing issues with tanks. If in doubt, you should store CBB mods in their own folder away from any existing mods. | + | Make a separate folder for the CBB Addons, as some of the mods we use may be different from versions found elsewhere. For example, in @ace we’ve omitted the ace_aircraft PBO because of conflict with RHS aircraft HUDs or in the RHS AFRF folder we’ve included a hotfix to fix crashing issues with tanks. Since mods downloaded by the workshop will override mods directly contained in the Arma 3 root folder, interference can occur if you keep all of your @addon folders in your Arma 3 root folder. |

| + | Many users make a folder called ''CBB Mods'' in their Arma 3 root folder(''...\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\Arma 3'') and install our modset there. | ||
