# Two Campaigns, One Install

Keep several total conversions installed (say LOTR, Europe 1100 and Game of Thrones) and switch between them in one click, without breaking any of them.

## Download

**[Download the profile switcher (.zip)](https://www.classified.llc/modding/downloads/bannerlord-profile-switcher.zip)**: one PowerShell script and a README.

## Why it works

- Total conversions don't need to be uninstalled to be turned off. **Unticked mods in the launcher don't load.** They can sit in `Modules` side by side.
- Your whole tick list and load order lives in one file: `Documents\Mount and Blade II Bannerlord\Configs\LauncherData.xml`.
- Save a copy of that file per campaign, and switching campaigns is just copying the right one back.

The script does that for you. It also saves your current list first, so any ticks you changed are kept.

## Set up

1. Unzip the switcher somewhere permanent, for example `C:\Modding\launcher-profiles`.
2. In the launcher, set up your first mod list. Launch to the main menu once to check it works, then quit.
3. In PowerShell, in the switcher folder:

```
.\Switch-Bannerlord.ps1 -Save LOTR
```

4. Set up the next mod list in the launcher, then save it as another profile:

```
.\Switch-Bannerlord.ps1 -Save EoE
```

## Switch

```
.\Switch-Bannerlord.ps1 LOTR
.\Switch-Bannerlord.ps1 EoE
```

It swaps the list and starts the game through Steam.

**Desktop shortcut:** right-click the desktop > New > Shortcut, and paste:

```
powershell.exe -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File "C:\Modding\launcher-profiles\Switch-Bannerlord.ps1" LOTR
```

Make one per campaign.

## VR

Add `-VR` and the script ticks [BannerlordVR](https://www.classified.llc/modding/bannerlord/bannerlord-vr), loads a separate VR graphics file and caps the frame rate. Without `-VR` it unticks it and puts your normal graphics back. Graphics changes you make in-game are saved back to whichever mode you were in.

## Things that are shared between campaigns

The script can't separate these, so plan around them:

- **Autosaves.** All campaigns share the same three autosave slots. Make a named save before you switch.
- **Mod Options settings** for mods used in both lists.
- **Library mods.** Some total conversions bundle their own (TAOM does). Others need the standalone Harmony, ButterLib, UIExtenderEx and MCM ticked. Get each profile right once, and the switcher remembers it.
- **AI Influence** keeps memories per campaign, so it's safe. Its logs and settings are shared. See [AI Influence context packs](https://www.classified.llc/modding/bannerlord/ai-influence-context-packs).

## Before the first switch

Copy your `Game Saves` and `Configs` folders somewhere safe. The script only touches `Configs`, but a backup costs nothing.
