It's a bit more complicated but here's what you do: Orca comes in a pack with other programs that you can install. It will take some time to obtain everything like 1hour to 1 1/2 hour. Go to where it says Windows Installer SDK v2.0, then after a while you'll see a button on your upper right corner that says 'CONTINUE', click that and the site will auto download and install everything including orca at C:\Program files\MicrosoftSDK by default. You can find the orca install exe (.msi file) in C:\Program Files\MicrosoftSDK\bin\orca.msi Edit: site is http://www.microsoft.com/msdownload/platformsdk/sdkupdate/
you know what i do? i just open the doom3.msi using ORCA and change the volume label to 'Doom3_1' on all of the files, it's very simple and it works though i cant seem to play Doom 3 with it.
Hey guys I followed the instructions and I got all 3 to work on a single dvd.

CAn anyone help? thanks
Ok, some newbie help requested here. How do I edit that file in Orca? I have searched around in the blasted program but can't seem to find or see how to edit the lines! Thanks ahead of time too!
You have to unlock the file. In the properties part of the file there is the "read only" check box make sure its unchecked and you should be able to edit the file.
go to the file, rightclick on it and click on edit with orca, or something along those lines. Then on the left scroll down till you see media. Click on that and you will see what you are looking for

Hi, everyoneone a`m new to multidisk copy to dvd-R. would it be possible to use thesame method. to copy splintercell pandora tomorrow into my harddrive. the game it cames with three cds also. am able to copy and paste the fisrt two disks succesfully into temp folder but the third one it can capy at all. i wish to capy all my games into a dvd-Rs sach medal of honor, halflife2,battlefront,ect..... Can any body pls. your help will be appreated thanx in advance.
the way you can put more than 1 game on dvd is this Make image files of all the games u want (you can clone them so they work like original cds). Burn the image files onto a data dvd using nero (you want the images to stay as image files on the disk so on one disk you might have game1.iso game2.iso game3.iso ) Then put the burnt dvd into ur dvd drive and using alcohol 120% or daemon tools mount the image files onto virtual drives from the dvd. This is helpful ifyou have multidisk games and want to keep them all together
Hi, I've managed to create a single DVD version of Doom3 but I cannot get any sound when I install it, not a sausage. I have a Gigabyte P4 Titan GA-8ik1100 which has in built 6 channel sound(5.1) I've got all the latest drivers and have tried absolutely everything I can think of to get the sound to work, reduced hardware acelleration through control panel the lot, and still not a sausage. I can't even get stereo sound, nothing. Other games seem to work fine Hitman2 etc... I'm thinking of starting again, transfering the original files across again but I'm sure I done everything right the first time and it does install fine but zero audio, although on the installation initial screen the IS audio??!, once installed... gone. Please help!
I was able to extract the files on the 3 CD's into a single install file. Install the game, apply a NO-CD patch and got the game to play without any problems. Thanks for the tips guys.
A nocd patch is an illegal crack that allows you to play the game without the disc. Discussing them in detail here is a great way to get banned as well
I wasn't talking about this by the way, do you have any input at all on the question I asked Nephilim?
I know you weren't talking about it, OKIE was and no I don't have any added information - the thread subject holds no interest for me. (I've read the entire Xanth series as well as the Incarnations of Immortality - great stuff)
(Nice one you, me and my dad and he's dead (god rest his soul) must be the only people in the world who have... I've quite a few more I'd like to read. I guess you recognised the handle then, petty I can't fit the Humphrey on the end...)
Weird name... "The root of Nephilim is nephel which means: "untimely birth, abortion, miscarriage". The Biblical tradition says the Nephilim were on the earth before the Flood and afterwards, but they appear to be missing during the Flood." - Also "There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they; bare children unto them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown." - Genesis 6:4 (King Jame's version) Interesting stuff... your name.... (mumble typing... must sleep-tis 03:47)
