install BI, after RTW and RS

[Dr. Oza]

i installed RS 1.5 over my RTW , but i also have BI ( uninstalled)

if i were to to install the game(BI), would that mess up my "broken" rtw folder and in turn my RS, if nothing wrong happens then could i follow the regular steps to use Bi exe for rs?

You should be ok to install BI after RS is installed. BI being broken by RS occurs because BI is not completely mod foldered (it's basically an RTW mod after all), so it uses some of the files in the vanilla RTW install to do it's thing. Since RS alters almost all major files in RTW, this of course prevents BI from working.

so if i installed BI, would it overwrite RS files?

or am i safe?

No. Installing BI also installs a new RTW version 1.5 and will over-write RS1.5 files. You can install BI, but you'll have to reinstall RS. The reason RS breaks BI is because of the many files RTW and BI share.
