Re: Installing Multiple Versions of EB
You need to make a full copy of your old installations, just in case. The installer is wont to ravage your old installation, unfortunately, but when you have a backup you can just put that back afterwards. I imagine you won't be returning to the old versions soon, though. Unless it for some reason doesn't work on your computer.
Remember to download the fixes.

Re: Installing Multiple Versions of EB
Thanks, Bovi, I'll give it a try. My old versions of EB both reside in their own set of folders, so I'll presume they're safe there from the depredations of the installer
Re: Installing Multiple Versions of EB
If you installed 0.81a or 0.81aV2 into that directory, it will be destroyed. If you moved it afterwards, it's safe.

Re: Installing Multiple Versions of EB
I renamed the 081a folder after installation, rather than actually moving it. I assume that keeps the 081a installation safe from the 1.0 installer?
BTW Bovi, thanks for the help.

Re: Installing Multiple Versions of EB
Keep in mind that some files reference the "/EB/..." folder. So, even if you are playing a version in a separate folder, it will still be using the particular files that are in the folder "EB". If the files differ largely in your renamed folder and the "EB" folder, you will get a CTD.
