How can one run multiple copies of SH3 on their computer? I want to have one with heavy mods (S-boot, supersub, etc.) and one with just GWX 2.1 for some good uboat action.

Thanks!:)

I did this once... i had one copy installed to the default location, and the second copy installed to a folder entitled "SH3_2" located OUTSIDE of 'program files'.

both seemed to work without conflict, but in the desire to free up hard drive space, as well as opting to run one dedicated mod i decided it was probably best to abandon this configuration in favor of something a little bit more clean lined.

I also run 2 copies one with GWX 2.1 and a stock one
I've installed them on different hard drives

For keeping track of saves ( also keep them separate ) use Multi SH3, nice
little app. :yep:

Yeah, nice ^^^, just remember to make sure your various executables (.exe) match up with each install that you have. Between SH3 & 4 I must have about 6-7 of these, including clean sets of files for each :doh:

thanks guys!

mikhayl,

the s-boot mod should not effect my uboat game if i remove and apply with JSGME right?

I keep my exe, SH3commander JSGME shortcuts in seperate folders on my desktop then in each "folder properties" I change the icon to point to the games exe. The folders are easily recognisable in their SH3 look.
