woodtortiose Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 I'm getting ready to re install Obl after a two year hiatus, and I was wondering if it was possible to install more than once on my rig. What I'd like to do is have one version, heavily modded for playing, and another vanilla for mod testing. Has anyone done this? If so how?

ThomasAccount Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 Make copys of your Game directory, your Oblivion directory under My Games, and rename them.If you need one of them, simply rename it back to Oblivion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bben46 Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 Maybe not exactly, but I did find a way to do what you want to do. Because of the way Oblivion places entries in the Windows registry on installing,You cannot have more than one working Oblivion At a time! But by swapping out everything except the Oblivion.exe you can have multiple data folders, save games. ini files etc. This works, I have been using it for quite a while.Here is a link to my dual Oblivion article.http://www.tesnexus.com/articles/article.php?id=285 I have been thinking about expanding it to allow running 5 or more Oblivions on the same computer.
