Fomods are mods that have an installation wizard, and generally require the wizard to be run before the mod can be activated. We'll use realistic_water_2 as an example. If you try to activate a fomod and it hasn't been configured yet, you'll see an error like this:

 index | Activated | Mod name
-------|-----------|------------
[0]     [True]      skse64_2_02_04
[1]     [True]      address_library
[2]     [True]      standard_lighting_templates
[3]     [True]      sseedit_v415
[4]     [False]     relighting_skyrim_se

 index | Activated | Plugin name
-------|-----------|------------
[0]     [True]      StandardLightingTemplates.esp

Skyrim Special Edition >_: activate mod 4

Fomods must be configured before they can be enabled.
[Enter]

To configure a fomod, run the configure <index> command:

 index | Activated | Mod name

This will present you with a fomod install wizard. Here, you can enter numbers to toggle options:
