Have you tried simply changing the install directory?

The install option is grayed out so no chance of using the installer...

I have 4 installs ATM
One for modding
One back up untouched to compare files against
One I add mods into to test and to play
And one offline install for those server downtimes

All I did was go to the Ubisoft folder and copy and paste the SilentHunter 5 folder
Renaming each as needed

Is this still possible after patch 2 so I can have 1.2 installed and a 1.15 offl. copy that I can customize to my personal tasty portable version?
I tried it with MultiSH3 (before I read this thread). No error message using MultiSH3 but no success.
The old version loads my new savegames and it's not good, isn't it? Is no MultiSH5 out there?
@bigboywooly: All your copys sharing the same savegames in /MyDocuments/?

Thank you. Greez. Echolt.
