Two Questions...

1) Why are all the damn RTW MODs made for 1.2? I download the latest patches and upgrade my game, then I have to re-install it because of some lame-ass I'm to morally weak to resist.

Most major mods have already been ported, the exceptions being R:TR (but there is an unoffical port in the form of the platinum edition available) and EB, so I don't see what you are complaining about. There are many 1.2 mods, but this was because most mods started their development before the release of 1.3.

Yeah just reinstall the game and make a couple of copy's of Data and then apply the latest patch to the one you're gonna play RTW with and the other one with 1.2 for the mods.
I've got 3 seperate folders (RTW, RTR, EB) and it works great.
