Inge:
That's my take on it too, Pes.

But it won't hurt to patch either.

It can. Never install a patch newer than the expansion you're trying to install next. If you do, the expansion may try to patch that previous game and barf because it cannot recognize a patch that did not exist at the time it was made. This is particularly pertinent if you're a late-purchaser. If an NLp3 came along, you should not install that if you have yet to install OFB. Even if you aren't, if you ever have to reinstall OFB, it may barf when you attempt to install because of this. Which means you then have to reinstall NL...which may barf if you did that with Uni, which may barf if you did that to your original game.

Patching is a necessity. You don't want to run broken code.

I'd just like to point out that the only instance of "objects.package" the game loads is the latest one, not all of them.

Then it should (at least in theory) be harmless to delete the contents of the other XP's folders, right?
If no code from previous XPs is ever run.
