'''The STEP Solution''' <BR>
One can spend hundreds of hours just searching for mods before actually getting down to the business of installing them. <BR>
As mods increase in number and complexity and mod creators produce more and more mods that alter game play, interface and settings, <BR>
the probability of game-crashing conflicts increases. The STEP project takes care of the heavy lifting associated with sifting through thousands of mods <BR>
and selecting the ones that significantly enhance and improve the vanilla experience without detracting from it <BR>
with as little cost as possible in terms of performance. Users are able to follow detailed, step-by-STEP manual-installation instructions <BR>
and be confident that all components have been individually tested by the community and the results verified. <BR>
This cuts down on a vast amount of time and headache dealing with sampling, testing and troubleshooting. <BR>
