How do you install multiple versions of RTW?

[OG Grenadier]

Hello chaps, yes I know this has been asked before but I feel compelled to ask it again! With so many incredible mods availible , and Lt's SPQR version 6 just about ready for release I implore you, how the devil do you install another version or setup your desktop shortcut to run a different mod?

Thanks awfully and game on!

OG,first there are 2 different mod installers at TWCenter.net for download.Look under tools in the dl section.These allow u to switch between mods without having multipl installs.Go here for the simlpest mod installer--http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showthread.php?t=34559

If u want more than one install simple change the name of the Activision folder.then when u run the install it will still want to uninstall the game ,go ahead and let it,it won't really be deleteing anything(that is if you've already changed the name of the Activision folder).Then run the install again.You can repeat this process as many times as u have room for. after u do this go to each game folder and create a shorcut ,rename the shortcutto what ever u like.

Cheers dude!

EDIT! Hang on a second, will this still work on an alredy modded RTW install? Or do you need to have a clean unmodded install for this to work without screwing up?

You would need an unmodded version to start with for it to work.

if you have modded RTW already, it's hard and you might gonna have errors, so it would be better to reinstall it clean and then make a backup of a clean install somewhere and you can also do this:
