Modding in the 1.095 Beta

from Sins Forums

So I downloaded the beta, and except for the fact that I couldn't use Bailknight's mod anymore, I loved it. But after a little while, I thought to myself, is there any reason I shouldn't be able to get Bailknight's mod working in the beta? After a little playing around with the files, learning how stuff worked, I got it into the beta, so now I have the best of both worlds.

 

However, I've gotten addicted to playing with the effects, and now I want to get the DEVELOPER.exe to work in the beta as well. Unfortunately, I feel that it might be a little beyond me. If anyone knows how to do this, or has any suggestions, I would be most grateful.

 

If it's simply not possible however, I would also like to know whethers it's possible to have two installations of Sins on one computer: one for 1.05 and one for 1.095.

Nope aint gonna happen because both use the the same ironclad folders. So two installs is out of the question.

There is no point in modding the beta's because things can change at any given time with them. Otherwise SoA 2 would be able to work on them. You would have to redo your mod for each update to the betas. Plus the devs really dont want you to mod them. The dev's want you to play the betas and give them feedback.

It's possible. Copy the original, then update. Just don't use the mods.
