I had accidentally copied my Medieval 2 folder when installing Third Age (which I still need help on), and I was wondering something. On a Windows 7 computer, would copying your Medieval 2 folder ( not for steam) allow you do download multiple mods. For example, I want to install Stainless Steel, Planet War and Battleaxe mods on a separate Medieval 2 folder. Basically what I'm hoping I can do is copy my M2 folder 2 more times and be able to have Third Age, Planet War, Stainless, Steel and Battleaxe installed at the same time, but have 4 Medieval 2 folders and have 1 mod per each folder. I copied the M2 folder before I installed third Age. I installed Third Age on the original folder, so the copy is clean, and if I can do this, then I'll try to copy the clean folder twice. I hope that's not too confusing.

So just installing them normally would work, not having to uninstall them or move them or use the copies? And I installed Third Age in my original and it worked fine until I installed Divide and conquer.

Great news, I got Third Age to work. I used a different un-adminastrator user and it worked. A glitch involving DAC appeared though. The original 12 factions were there, but they were renamed to the factions they were renamed to in DAC, but it had the original symbols. Also many units were named something weird, that seemed to mean unknown. I forgot what it said, but I'll uninstall and reinstall TA and see if that works. Maybe it's not a glitch, I don't know. I think the original problem was I installed the wrong files for DAC.

Yep, everything is working smoothly with Third Age. But can I still install the other mods normally without breaking Third Age. I could make other users for the computer I use and install each mod on each user if that's not too confusing.
