Separate SM Installations

Is it possible to have multiple installations of Stepmania of the same version? I know I could use RC3 and CVS at the same time, but I want two installations of RC3 (because none of the themes work with CVS).

As background, I'm trying to have one installation be an ITG version with official timing windows and grading, and the other be a DDR version with official timing windows and grading. They unfortunatley don't mesh too well

it's possible, i've done it before, except with 3.0 beta, not sure about RC3 though

i guess just run the installer twice, just change the output directory

^ I dont think that will work. The (RC3) installer will look for any installs of Stepmania, and ask to remove them, even if its an install of RC3.

So, DJX. At least I know Im not the only one who likes to have ITG and DDR programs set up like this!

Anyways, like I said, RC3 does not like having any installs of Stepmania on there before it installs (even if its a previous install of RC3). To bypass this, I installed Stepmania RC3, then copied the entire program (and folders) into a new directory. You now have two seperate versions of Stepmania. (Thats how I achieved an ITG build and a DDR build)
