Ok, first of all, to avoid too much flaming that i admit i deserve i will beg your forgivness for not checking all the threads for my answer but there are thousants and i dont have that much free time...

Now to the point, i wanted to know if it is posible to have 2 installations of EB active on a PC at a time, one on R:TW.exe and one at BI.exe and if the saves from the earlyer whould be compatible with the later.

Thanks for reading (and hopefully replying) and sorry for typos... Dislexia is a... hard mistress...

Yep, possible. You have to name them differently and adjust the shortcuts of course,

It is possible, and you do in fact not even need two installations of EB for it. For the more technically adventurous people: it is possible to set up shortcuts for launching RTW and BI and/or ALX respectively pointing to the same EB; the magic is in the -mod: parameter.

Save games are definitely not compatible between RTW, BI and ALX versions; nor is map.rwm, I expect.

hmpf... this is a bit embarasing but... well... i tryed to install EB on BI.exe but since i AM a N00B i simply didnt qualify for such a thing on my own. Is there eny chance for a breaf description of files i need to alter and the alterations i need to make? I would be realy greatfull... Thanks in advance.
