If you're using Moddb or an equivalent site, most of them have pretty awesome directions concerning how to install the mods. Most require a simple unzip into the Stalker directory. A lot of them even have their own installation tools attached so it makes it super easy.

For AO 3.1 you simply copy the gamedata folder and install in the directory. Can't get much easier than that. Don't even need to zip it or unzip it. One thing though:

DON'T FORGET THE HOTFIX FOR AO 3.1 if you're using other compatible mods!!!!!

Usually mods have a gamedata folder like AO. Simply copy n paste it to the main folder of CoP.
