Not sure if this thread goes here, but I figured it was related enough.
I've been playing RTR 3.2 and enjoying it so far, but i'm also involved in some PBMs and trying out other mods making it a hassle to backup files or unistall/reinstall(don't have the space to copy the entire RTW dir).
So i've made two dos batch files to do it for me. The first file preinstall3.2.bat backs up all the files RTR overwrites so you can safely extract RTR to the RTW directory. The second file uninstall3.2.bat deletes all the files RTR adds and restores the backups, allowing you to play vanilla RTW. I've uploaded it to totalwar.org and its up at this link. (http://www.totalwar.org/Downloads/Rtw_Uploads/RTWupload/RTRBackupAndRestore.zip) I also posted it on Twcenter.net in the RTW/Tools section, not sure how long it will take to come up there though.
Anyway, this was more of just a personal thing for myself but I figured some other people with low hdd space could get some use out of it. So have fun easily switching between the two, just be sure to read the instructions.
