2 Versions of DR2 OTR coexisting on pc ?
« Thread Started on Jul 11, 2012, 4:46am »
Hey guys !
I just got my original DR2 OTR Windows Live version today.
Since I already"own" a SKIDROW cracked Version it is put in registry and already installed.
The problem is, I don't want to risk playing the legit version wth mods cracks or whatever and get banned.
So I would like to have 2 Versions of the game on my PC "installed" one for online fun, the other for all the mods.

The problem is I don't find the correct registry entry and since I did not find any Info on the board or using google, I would like to know, if anyone of you can help me out with this.

I basically want to install the original and keep my SKIDROW one with the existing savegames, the original 100% clean lvl 1 start of course.

Thanks!

thanks pal, Anno told me just to create it anywhere, they could move it around, if it is wrong.
Solved the problem myself by now, just copied the skidrow version so the copied one would not be deleted, uninstalled it and installing original now.

I'll be sure to move this to the right area.

By the way, you will not be banned from online with any mod. We have a mod that gives you the DLC for free and you still won't get banned. Game on Dude!

I have a expensive gaming laptop. It has three external hard drives which allows me to install more than one version of the game.

Regular, single hard drive computers - not sure how to install more than one version of the game.
