How to Install RBR More than once???

[nhigginson]

I'd like to run RBR-World and RSRBR on the one computer, but trying to install the game from the iso it asks to uninstall the first install. how on earth do i do a secondary installation?

An ISO? Does that mean you don't have the original disk? You have a downloaded pirate copy?

I do have an original disk. but i have put most of my disks into cold storage. i run an original disk but as an iso form

 

[nhigginson]

i am sure im not the only one who has done so

is it as simple as installing files then making a copy or is there a method to it?

Well with the original disk it is very easy. Just install to a different folder eg, c:/games/RBR or c:/rbr
Very easy.
I have the original installed in two versions. One vanilla, another modded. But I prefer to use RBR 2016 mod. (Actually a full version)

Make a copy of the original game and install there the mod. I manage to have 3 or 4 different RBRs without problems.

There's no pirate copy anymore since is considered abandonware long time ago. Is just as easy as install the original game and then the 1.02 patch. The game will never ask you for a serial number or something like that. And this is an official patch.

Can you prove it's abandonware?
Either way, I'm not bothered because I use RBR2016 and I own the original boxed version. For me it is both better looking and better handling and superbly playable with great FFB too. And yes it is completely stand alone, no disc required all in one. I love it.
