    They shouldn't interfere with eachother. SS 6.0/1/2 are installed in to the Stainless_Steel_6 folder, while SS6.3 installes into the SS6.3 folder, so you should be able to keep both campaigns.

    Tavix,

    If you are using Vista/WIN7, did you disable the UAC on installing 6.3?

    After you have installed you should see two separate folders in Mods folder

    tavix,

    They are separately mod foldered, so you can play either at any time, its like having SS and TATW in the same mod folder. Infact I use XP and have all three in the same mod folder SS, 6.3 and TATW

    Unless you told the SS6.3 installer to install in the same directory that you have 6.2 in, then they are totally separate and can run fine alongside each other. I've got 6.1 and 6.3 running concurrently.

    6.2 by default will be in \mods\Stainless_Steel_6. 6.3 will by default be in \mods\SS6.3

    If vanilla isn't working then your installation of M2TW is most likely borked. I suggest reinstalling it.
