    Default Installing 6.0 & 6.1 question on compatability

    I currently have Stainless steal 5.0 and 5.1 on my comp from a while back. Now I seak to try 6.0 /6.1.

    I currently have a mod for Medeival 2 kingdoms called The Third Age Total War also made by King Kong.
    Now my question is, do I have to uninstall stainless steal 5.0 and 5.1 to play 6.0 and 6.1? When I click to unistalll stainless steal 5.0/5.1 it says would you like to unistall Third Age total War. Now I would like to keep Third Age as it is very fun to play but I would hate to have to unistall it to play Stainless Steal 6.0 /6.1.

    In a nutshell

    I read that 6.0/6.1 does not override past version of SS so I have to delete them manualy. But when I try to delete 5.0/5.1 it says would I like to uninstall Third Age total War. Do I have to delete everything?

    Just delete the SS5 directory and then install SS6.0 & 6.1. You can run SS6 and Third Age together fine.

    Thank you it works fine now. I do have problems with starting early Campaigns. It CTDs when I click Early campaign. Also the icon for Stainless steel still says 6.0 yet I did install 6.1 , is that supposed to happen?

    Did you install (i.e. manually double click on) both parts 1 and parts 2 of SS6.0? Also if you are running Vista, turn off UAC.

    Yes both parts are installed. I did notice that after a late era campaign I then clicked Early Era campaign and it worked perfectly. However aftert trying to start another early campaign it CTD again.

    Yes I am using Vista, but what is UAC and how can I turn it off?

    Check the Vista FAQ sticky thread at the top of the main SS forum.
