    Default Install with or without Kingdoms?

    Greetings people.

    I have tried BC some time ago - back when I only had MedII without Kingdoms. (Now I'm using MedII Gold edition)

    Now I would have a question concerning install: in the latest release it says it can be installed on Kingdoms aswell with some manual changes (which I wouldn't like to risk - don't want to mess up the game). What I wanted to ask is if the mod would work well if I first Install MedII then I copy it into another folder, Install Kingdoms in the Original folder and then install BC in the other Folder (should not have Kingdoms)? I remember this worked with Rome and its Expansions, but I don't know wether this will work with Medieval II aswell.

    You can install everything in the same folder. BC works also with Kingdoms installed. It's 'BC Kingdoms Edition' that doesn't work well.

    I use the Kingdoms version the guy above me mentions... I was initally worried as many people said it was unstable/had issues etc etc but it seems to work just fine. Great mod by the way I haven't come across any other that immerses you into the time-frame like this does exceptional work. Love the music

    So if Iunderstand this right then I can just install BC on MedII: Gold Edition withouth changing anything manually like mentioned in the Install instructions on the 2.02 patch release?

    If the kingdoms edition doesn't work there's a special kingdoms patch somewhere that you need to install first.

    I have another question concerning BC and Kingdoms.

    Do I have to uninstall BC first, then install Kingdoms, and then reinstall BC? Or leave BC on and install Kingdoms right away?

    Thanks,
    Colos
