Enemy Territory QUAKE Wars (DVD9 to DVD5) #2

I've been constantly recieving "Instalation failed" error at the end of installation, and then buy mere accident I've made version which requires DVD1 to be inserted to complete installation. I was suprised to see that installation ended normaly, with "Do you wish to create desktop icon" message.

This is what I did (default .msi database, not edited)

1. Copy entire contet of DVD9 to temp folder.
2. In UltraISO create new iso with label ETQWDVD, drag and drop entire content of temp folder to new compilation (all deleteions are via UltraISO UI, in new compilation, not on hard drive).
3. Delete Extras folder
4. In Setup\Data\base delete
pak002.pk4
pak003.pk4
pak004.pk4
public.cfg
usergroups.cfg
usergroups.example
but leave zpak_english000.pk4 where it is, do not delete it!

Compile image, name it anything you like, i.e. ISO1.

5. Create new iso, with label ETQWDVD and drag and drop entire content of new temp folder to new compilation.
6. from Setup\Data\base delete:
folders:
DEU
ESP
FRA
megatextrues
and file: zpak_english000.pk4

Compile image, name it anything you like, i.e. ISO2.

I've tested these images in Daemon Tools and installation was succsessfull.

Judging buy the file layout in .msi file, last .pk4 files to be copied are zpak_english000.pk4, zpak_german000.pk4, zpak_spanish000.pk4 and zpak_french000.pk4, depending from language selection at installation startup. If I am right, after copying last .pk4 file, problem occurs, only if inserted disk/image is not DVD1 (correct me if I am wrong).

P.S. Sorry for my bad english.

My conversion. You will need to finish the installation with DVD1

DVD1
----

Put all the content except for 'megatextures' folder found in /Setup/Data/base

Edit *.msi file with ORCA and in the Media section change the rows so looks like this:

Code:

DISKID  LastSequence  DiskPrompt                         Cabinet   VolumeLabel

------  ------------  ---------------------------------  -------   -----------

1       16            Enemy Territory - QUAKE Wars DVD 1  PB.cab    ETQWDVD1

2       42            Enemy Territory - QUAKE Wars DVD 1            ETQWDVD1

3       54            Enemy Territory - QUAKE Wars DVD 2            ETQWDVD2

4       1471          Enemy Territory - QUAKE Wars DVD 1            ETQWDVD1

Burn with name: ETQWDVD1

DVD2
----

Only the 'megatextures' folder with fullpath /Setup/Data/base

Burn with name: ETQWDVD2

Tested & Works
Bad engrish, sorry :P
