I'm planning on writing a short guide on how to backup games on multiple cds to dvd.

You can help me do this by telling me what games you have found that use an .msi installer. *Please do not repeat those that other people have already said.*

Or by E-mailing me at valtiel98**********com and telling me how you have converted any games that arent in this list:

Farcry
Doom3
Full Spectrum warrior
True Crime
Knights of the Old Republic
Unreal Tournament 2004

There is already a '.msi installer' guide here: http://fileforums.com/showthread.php?t=62564
Its just doesnt have an easy subject title on it for searching!
And as Morglum007 pointed out further down the page, there is no need to download the whole 'Intel SDK' program just download 'Orca'. ;)
And for a '.exe' type guide there is one here: http://fileforums.com/showthread.php?t=64245 and here: http://fileforums.com/showthread.php?t=64217&highlight=mafia

Well...
If you litraly copy all the contents of one disk into a folder of the same name on the DVD, it'll all run smoothly. I did it using the basic burning software on a G4 Mac and from the DVD onto my hard disk. Then i got the no cd patch. In a nutshell my DVD rom wasn't fast enough to run UT2k4 so this proved the best solution.
