XC with RS?

**dunty12** · December 29, 2009, 11:41 PM

Hello, 2 quick questions...

1. Can I play xc and roma surrectum at the same time? I've heard you need a clean install with no other mods for rs to work properly?

Same would be for XC.
If you have a clean RTW (or BI) you can install XC first and RS after.
I don't know if Roma Surrectum is mod foldered, if it is then both mods can happily run together.

I'm pretty shore RS doesn't use a mod folder like xc because in twcwiki released mods for rome rs is listed under mods not contained in mod folder.

In that case the best chance to have them both working is to install XC first and RS after.
XC won't mess up with the vanilla install and there's a chance that it might still run depending on how much RS changes...

I'm pretty sure that RS changes almost everything. It isn't mod foldered and its a full-conversion.

What you want to do is copy your RTW folder, then use the copy for Roma Surrectum. That way, you can still play all of your favorite modfoldered mods and RS.

Thanks cv I plan to try it when rs2 comes out. Also does it matter if the rtw copy previously had xc installed on it? I wouldn't think so because xc has a nifty uninstall icon but it says that rs needs a clean install or something, just curious, thank you.

I think you may not able to it as RS2 is total coversion that will turn your RTW into something else.

I guess I will just have to remove and do a clean install of rtw than copy the clean version for rs2 when it comes out and leave the other for xc. Thankyou Suppanut.

XC won't change affect anything for other mods unless you remove the redline on the battlefield, and then that'll be the only change.

**dunty12** · January 05, 2010, 03:09 PM

CV are you saying that xc and rs2 can be in the rtw folder just by keeping the red line on the battlefield in xc?

**CaesarVincens** · January 05, 2010, 05:12 PM

I don't know if RS2 is mod foldered, but Extended Cultures will run with other mod foldered mods, and Extended Cultures will not affect RTW or other mods unless you remove the red line.

Other mod foldered mods should not affect Extended Cultures as long as they make no changes to essential files.
