Both Sins
Is is possible when entrenchment comes out to have 1.00 and entrenchment at the same time?
Stardock will be closed for the week starting on Monday, June 29th and we will be returning on Monday, July 6th. We will be monitoring support tickets and forums during this time but expect delays in responses during this time.

You mean Vanilla Sins (1.00) and Entrenchment?
As one install no. But you could install Sins 1.00, copy the folder somewhere else and then let Entrenchment install over the top.
But I ask why would you want to. I tried 1.00 at Xmas (don't ask why - away from home with laptop and no patch) and it sucks compared to Sins now.
I think he means he wants to be able to select vanilla sins(whatever version) or entrenchment without having to uninstall or anything. And when entrenchment if officially released it should support that.
Well, that is different. The fact that 1.00 is specified suggests the OP wants original Sins, not patched Sins....
look does it really matter what version can this be done? perhaps on a seperate harddrive?
I have done a similar trick on one of my computers.
first install sins and update it to the version you want.
then copy the sins of solar empires directory to a new name eg sins 1.13
create a shortcut from the sins of a solar empire exe in the new folder to the desktop and rename it so you know which one is when you want to run it
finally download & install te entrenchment beta.
hope this help

what about the settings and everything, will they have to copied?
the settings will carry over between the versions, BUT the MODS are NOT compatible so should be loaded each time you start sins in the options/mods & DO NOT click on the tickbox to load the mod on startup of sins (ie make sure that the loadmod on startup is EMPTY.
harpo
what if it is between 1.00 and 1.13?
It might reset the settings each time you run the different versions. The format of the settings file has changed somewhat through the updates, so the game might just reset everything if it needs to.
