im wanting to know if anyone can tell me if and how i can take all 5 cd's from my Far Cry game and put them on one dvd disc so that it will install a little faster. thanks for any help sent my way
I found this at a site I am a member of called cd-2-dvd.com As the name implies it tells you how to take a bunch of game cd's and make one game DVD. Anyway these instructions were posted by a person with the SN - Grumpy - so heres what he posted (it calls for a program called Orca to edit a .msi file. Orca is free and available at cd-2-dvd.com). Hope it works for ya - PeaInAPod Farcry 1) Create a folder on your hardrive and name it: FARCRY_1 (This will be the name of the DVD) 2) Starting from CD5 then CD4, CD3, CD2 and lastly CD1 copy all folders and files to this newly created FARCRY_1 folder. This will leave the correct ‘Autorun.inf’ untouched. Overwrite anything else that doubles up. 6) Download and Install ‘Orca’. Once Orca is installed, Right Click the file ‘Far Cry.msi’ and from near the top of the menu choose ‘Edit with Orca’. (You may have to edit the properties of this file and untick the ‘read only’ attribute, but as it is copied to the harddrive it is probably already edited automatically). When opened you will see 2 window panes, go to the ‘Tables’ one on the left and scroll down to ‘Media’ Click on ‘Media’ this will show you the entries in the Right pane. Change all the entries in the ‘VolumeLabel’ column to: FARCRY_1 Then ‘Save’ it. 4) Now burn to a DVD using the Label FARCRY_1.
