Just a wish here that biab 2021 will be able to play biab 22 realtracks when the new version is released. This isn't the case at the moment with current versions and it would greatly help everyone who wants to retain a stable version of the program (biab 21) while the bug fixing takes place in the new 22 version.

It will usually work if you make a copy of the 2021 bbw64.exe > rename bbw64 - copy.exe > bbw64-846.exe then install 2022, then bbw64-846.exe to revert and still have all the new RT/RD etc..
I think the trick would be having the program recognize and index the new tracks so that you could find them in a search. To do that, I agree you would need to install 2022 then modify it in some way. It appears Pipeline has this figured out. But I don’t see the incentive for PG Music to do this nor support it.

A while back, when I had skipped that year's update, I posed a question concerning a RealTrack update patch and was told that RT's are not backwards compatible.

Yep, that makes sense. Newer RealTracks may not work (or be recognized) by older versions. But we don't really know until they are released and tested, so can only 'hypothesize' (and be ambitious that they will work OK) .

Pipelines idea of renaming and copying the bbw files to use the previous years version work great, I have used it often, BUT this should not be any kind of hidden secret that a lot of users are NOT aware of.
Come on PG music, rather than having frustrated users with a new released buggy program, you should simply make the above one of the new features, so that users can use the previous years with the new realtracks.

The installer could have an option to not upgrade the bbw exe's just install the new RealTracks/Drums files and data files.
In this case, would the old exe be able to recognize the new files? I have the impression that the exe has some hard-coded awareness of the available tracks it can use. Certainly the Style Paks are version dependent.
