Is it possible to have Vanilla and GWX at the same time?

Hi

Is it possible to have the standard SH3 and also GWX installed in the same computer?
I have a C and a D hard drive.
I have the ordinary SH3 on my C drive and was hoping to put a GWX version in my D drive.
But when i click on the install option to do a new install in D i just get the options to repair/modify/remove the exisitng C drive install.

Thanx

Rename your SH3 install to something else - say Stock

Whack the disk in
Install
Repair

You will then get another SilentHunerIII folder which you can then patch and add GWX

OR

If your SH3 install is unmodded just make a copy of it then rename that to GWX and add GWX to it

Multi SHIII is a helpful tool to handle multi installs.

Install of Multiple Versions

1)Complete a fresh install of SH3 + 1.4b as normal.
2)Create a copy of the program folder & rename as required.
3)Install your mod of choice to the renamed version.
4)Create and rename shortcuts as required.
5)Use MultiSH3 to create separate save locations for each install.

SH3 Commander & Multiple Installs

It is recommended to have a separate install of Commander for each different install of SH3.
1)Install SH3Commander and rename the program folder to suit.
2)Rename each SH3Cmdr shortcut as required.
3)You will need to use the l: switch to point SH3Cmdr to the right installation.

Here's an example of the l: switch for dual installs, just tailor it to fit.....

Right click on the SH3Cmdr shortcut & choose properties.

Target
"C:\Program Files\SH3 Commander-GWX\SH3Cmdr.exe" /l:"C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\Silent HunterIII-GWX"

Start in
"C:\Program Files\SH3 Commander-GWX"
