Disc-based Installer

This type of installer is a little bit more work, as the installer is expecting certain data on certain discs. We need to force the installer to think its all on one disc

  1. Create a directory on your HDD for the game files.
  2. Copy each CD into this directory, starting from the last CD. (see note)
  3. Fire up Orca and open the .msi file in the directory (usually something original, like setup.msi
  4. Click the Media item on the left. A list will appear of the data files and which disk the installer should look for them on. (See Fig. 1)
  5. Rename all VolumeLabels to be the same (see Fig. 2). I usually just make them the same as the first label, but it can be anything. Remeber what you labelled them, you will need to know it later.
  6. Save and Exit

You should now have an installer that works off a single DVD. You can either burn to DVD or continue on to create an ISO and test it
