Supreme Commander DVD9 to 1xDVD5 (English Only)
NOTE: Follow these steps carefully & exactally.
===============================================
1. Make sure you have atleast 15Gb free on your 'C:\'
2. Download scpbxino.zip from the download link supplied.
(This includes Inno Setup 5.1.6 which is free)
3. Install your Original Supreme Commander to 'C:\scdata'
NOTE: you MUST install Supreme Commander to this folder
so that the full game path is 'C:\scdata\Supreme Commander\'
4. Extract 'scpbxino.zip' to your 'C:\' in the root and
run the 'C:\scdvd5e.bat' file to clean up the game folder.
*** NOTE: THIS IS FOR ENGLISH ONLY. ***
5. Open the 'C:\scinno\Compil32.exe' file, this will launch
Inno Setup, open 'C:\scinno\scredist.iss' using Inno Setup.
6. In Inno Setup choose Build -> Compile.
(This can take 2 to 3 hours depending on your PC)
7. Once compiled, copy the following files from your DVD
to 'C:\scdvd5' keeping the original directory structure.
\adobe\AdbeRdr80_en_US.exe
\autorun.exe
\autorun.inf
\dxwebsetup.exe
\icon.ico
\readme.txt
8. Make a folder for your updates / cracks / whatever.
(I don't supply these, look for them on GCW)
9. Burn the contents of the 'C:\scdvd5' directory to a DVD5
and make the DVD label "SupCom1EFIS" without quotes.
10. Once done, you can Uninstall Supreme Commander and delete
the following folders and all the contents inside.
'C:\scdata\*.*'
'C:\scdvd5\*.*'
'C:\scinno\*.*'
'C:\scdvd5e.bat'
'C:\readmesc.txt'
11. Install Supreme Commander using your serial number in
the form of ****-****-****-****-**** and enjoy your
newly created DVD5 version of Supreme Commander
NOTE: You might want to include these extra files but they
are not absolutly neccessary, add them to the support
folder 'c:\scdvd5\support' before burning the DVD.
DirectX Redist, DotNETfx2, Both can be downloaded

This process might take a while, but it's the only way I
could get the whole game on only 1 DVD5.
Thanx to BarryB for the mention of Inno Setup
