[union jack]

I Believe The Dune Game Has Same Cd File Namez On Each Cd Rename Then They Wont Play Hmmm
Do A Full Install Tehn Zip Or Ace It (prob A Install All Feature)

[Grumpy]

I wonder if it would be possible to put up to 6 different games onto 1 DVD? It sounds feasable to make seperate folders for each game, then make a autorun file that opens a html page on the DVD! On this html page could be 6 different links, to take you to the setup file of each different game! Simaliar to the magazine disks! So what does everyone think? Doesnt sound to hard now, Does it? I think
And for the record have successfully converted to DVD:
Battlefield Vietnam
Colin Mcrae 04
Doom3
Farcry
Mafia
Manhunt
Max Payne 2
NFS Underground (This one does ask for CD at the end but cancel message and game still works!)
Rome-Total War
Splinter Cell-Pandora's Tommorrow
Tomb Raider-The Angel of Darkness
True Crimes
Ut2004

And have write ups on how to do: (As I dont have these games, just typed them out for someone else)
NHL 2005
EURO 2004

So send me a PM if you want a Readme Doc sent!

Putting the CDs into different folders with an autorun probably wouldn't work for most games unless they are cracked and don't require any data from the disc during gameplay. Also during install you'll keep getting a prompt for the next CD and you'll have to select the folder. Most games will put the install source path somewhere and be something like E:\Setup. If you put the CDs in seperate folders, the game will look for the game in say, E:\CD1 but the 4th CD is in E:\CD4. If you are putting different games all on one DVD but all files from each games CDs are in this folder it will probably work except in rare cases where the setup must be run from the root of the drive which I have ran across before. The game may also need to be crack even if there is no protection because some games will only look for the game files on the root of the install drive.

These are the games that I have coverted to DVD
Baldurs Gate 1
Hitman Contracts
Painkiller
FarCry
KOTOR
Enter the Matrix
Commandos 3
LOTR ROTK
UT 2k4
Splinter Cell

And maybe some others that I don't remember

I'm looking at Emperor Battle for Dune and it looks like it cannot be converted to 1 DVD because the movie files from each CD have the same names. This means they will overwrite each other and I'm sure there is no way to change the path that the game looks for the movies. I'm sure it just looks for the movies in the setup source path.

Hey Kyle2k how did you manage to make a working copy of XIII.

I tried it by copying all the files to the same directory and burning. It installs fine but the crack still requires that you insert the cds as you play the game. So its kind of useless.

How did you get around it.
