@strategicwaffle As Jip stated above, the Control Group Zoom Mod is no longer needed because the functionality has been integrated into the base FAF game. Also, the NoShake mod as been integrated too, so you can delete that as well.
I suspect the reason why you're not seeing the Control Groups section in the in-game Options menu as per Jip's screen shot is because you're launching your vanilla SCFA install (Steam, GOG, CD/DVD) instead of the launching a FAF game through the FAF Client. To play the FAF version of SCFA, you need to either create or join a game through the Play tab of the FAF Client.
To get yourself antiquated with all in-game Options, Key Bindings & other things that the FAF version of the game offers over vanilla, I would suggest that you go to FAF Client > Play > Custom Games > Create Game > Game Type (left panel) > FAF > set a password so nobody else can join > select a map or generate one > enable/disable mods as desired > Create.
When you get to the in-game lobby, go to Mods (or Options > Mods) to ensure that the mods are enabled (except NoShake & Control Group Zoom Mod)/disabled as desired as sometimes the client as issues writing to the game.prefs file that the game reads. Also go through the Options to setup the game as you want. When you've setup the game, click the Ready checkbox for your slot next to the map preview, then Launch & explore.
