Multiple IL-2 Installs
Is it possible to have multiple installed (same game)..lets say, a stock version and a modded one????

Yes, easily. IL2 makes no registry entries, so you can copy your entire IL2 folder anywhere you like, rename it with any name you like. Good to save a back-up copy, so that when you mod it, abuse it, corrupt it, destroy it, you can restore it from your back-up... and start all over again.

So it does not even rely on the install/uninstall function.. So just copy the folder,rename...and create separate Launchers????

Yep, you can even copy your install(s) to a USB drive and run it on whichever computer is handy. All mine are on a portable USB drive. |

For what purpose? I've bought the game eight times so far on DVD but you only need one original copy. I install 4.07m from the latest DVD, copy it a bunch of times, then patch each up to the various versions - 4.08m, 4.09m, 4.10.1m, 4.11.1m and the latest 4.12.2m. Further copies I patch up to the required version and then mod each with HSFX4, 5, 6 and 7, UP3, DBW1.6 and 1.71. |

Some of the mods are aimed at earlier versions so you only patch up to that version, then install that mod pack. |
