Mod folder
From TWC Wiki
A "mod folder" is the term used to describe placing all the revised files for a mod into a separate folder so that they do not overwrite any of the existing game files. If a mod is fully "mod foldered" then it and the original game can be played on the same game installation just by using a different short-cut to each. Other similar "mod folder" mods can also use the same installation saving the player a lot of hard-disc space and reducing the need to un-install and re-install the game.
Mod foldered mods are possible for Rome: Total War, Barbarian Invasion, Alexander and also Medieval II: Total War (from patch 1.2 onwards).
