Default SHIII Vanilla Install + GWX

How can I install SHIII "Vanilla" (without GWX) on a seperate part of my hard drive. I have SHIII + GWX installed and can't seem to figure out how to do this. Thanks(Please give specific steps-this will be very helpful).

Change your GWX main file to another name, make sure you change your shortcut on the desktop as well to reflect the new change. When you put the SHIII disc in again you can do a fresh install with a new stock shortcut. If you have any saved games back them up beforehand.

Put your SH3 disc into your drive...Install...Repair... and a further version will be installed

That's the slow way. Just copying the stock 1.4b folder and renaming it is faster, plus it won't muck up the uninstall path. I suggest the OP downloads MultiSH3 (available from the SubSim downloads section) and follows the instructions in the Readme.

May be faster but if the only copy you have is already modded - as posted in the first thread - then its no use is it
You end up with 2 modded copies
