SH4 1.4 and SH4 1.5 Separate Installs On Same Drive?

Reno · 11-10-08, 12:16 AM

I have SH4 1.4 installed on my C drive. I'd like to add SH4 1.5 as a separate install on the same drive. Unfortunately 1.5 wants to update 1.4 instead of making a separate install. Any way of getting around this?

:hmm: Could just copy your 1.4 install to a different location and then install 1.5 on top of the original.

Yeah I was thinking about that but my 1.4 install is almost 7GB. Hate transferring something that big. I was hoping that there was a file I could just rename to fool the 1.5 installer.

I think that requires some mucking around in the registry. Not advisable unless you know exactly what you're doing.

Thanks, Donut. MultSH4 recommends copying the whole file to another location just like Arc said. Guess that's what I'll do because I don't want to mess around in the registry. Thanks again guys. I appreciate the help.
