Ok here is the conversion in 'Detail'. It is for the 'English' version!
No files to download except Orca if you dont already have it.
This way you actually learn how to do it yourselves and we wont have this senseless posting of useless junk.
The conversion DOES work! Ive written and tested it myself.
DVD 1
1) Create a Temp folder on your hardrive.
Name this folder: COD4_DVD1. This will be the name (Label) of DVD1.
2) Copy all the contents of the Call of Duty 4 DVD9 to the Temp folder.
3) Open the COD4_DVD1\Setup\Data folder and Delete the ‘miles’ folder.
4) Open the COD4_DVD1\Setup\Data\main folder and Delete the following files from the ‘main’ folder:
localized_english_iw02.iwd
localized_english_iw03.iwd
localized_english_iw04.iwd
localized_english_iw05.iwd
localized_english_iw06.iwd
5) Also in the COD4_DVD1\Setup\Data\main folder Delete the ‘Video’ folder.
6) In the COD4_DVD1\Setup\Data\zone folder is a folder named ‘english’.
Delete all the files in the ‘english’ folder EXCEPT the ‘village_defend.ff’ file.
7) Download and Install ‘Orca’ from
HERE.
Once Orca is installed, Right Click the file ‘CoD4MW.msi’ and from near the top of the menu choose ‘Edit with Orca’. (You may have to edit the properties of this file and untick the ‘read only’ attribute, but as it is copied to the hardrive it is probably already edited automatically).
When opened you will see 2 window panes, go to the ‘Tables’ one on the left and scroll down to ‘Media’
Click on ‘Media’ this will show you the entries in the Right pane.
Here we need to edit both the original Rows and also Add another 2 Rows.
First we will edit the 2 original Rows.
In the ‘DiskPrompt’ Column double click the entry in the first Row.
Change the entry to: COD4_DVD1
Do the same in the DiskPrompt’ Column for Row 2.
In the ‘VolumnLabel’ Column, for both Rows, change the entries to: COD4_DVD1
In the ‘LastSequence’ Column, for Row 2, change the entry to: 68
Now we will Add another 2 Rows.
To Add another Row, Right click a blank area under the original Rows and choose ‘Add Row’ from the menu.
The Add Row box will appear. Fill in the following entries:
DiskId = 3
LastSequence = 200
DiskPrompt = COD4_DVD2
VolumnLabel = COD4_DVD2
Then Click OK.
Do the same again to Add a 4th Row.
This time our entries in the Row box will be:
DiskId = 4
LastSequence = 201
DiskPrompt = COD4_DVD1
VolumnLabel = COD4_DVD1
Then Click OK.
Now click on the ‘Save’ icon (the icon which looks like a floppy disc) to Save the changes.
8) Using the Notepad create a text file and name it Serial.txt. Copy your serial to this text file.
Save the Serial.txt file to the COD4_DVD1 folder.
9) Create another folder/s for any Updates, Patches and or Cracks etc.
NOTE: Name this/these folder/s whatever you want.
10) Burn the contents of the COD4_DVD1 folder to a DVD with the Label: COD4_DVD1
DVD 2
11) Create a Temp folder on your hardrive.
Name this folder: COD4_DVD2. This will be the name (Label) of DVD2.
NOTE: Instead of trying to explain the procedure on how to create the correct directory and file structure etc for DVD2, I will show you an easy way. It will seem like some unnecessary file copying but it is quicker and easier in the long run.
12) From the Call of Duty 4 DVD9 copy ‘only’ the ‘Setup’ folder to the COD4_DVD2 folder.
13) Now Open the COD4_DVD2\Setup folder and Delete the ‘rsrc’ folder.
14) Open the COD4_DVD2\Setup\Data\Mods folder and Delete the ‘ModWarfare’ folder.
15) Open the COD4_DVD2\Setup\Data\main folder and Delete the following files:
iw_00.iwd
iw_01.iwd
iw_02.iwd
iw_03.iwd
iw_04.iwd
iw_05.iwd
iw_06.iwd
iw_07.iwd
iw_08.iwd
iw_09.iwd
iw_10.iwd
iw_11.iwd
localized_english_iw00.iwd
localized_english_iw01.iwd
16) Open the COD4_DVD2\Setup\Data\zone\english folder and Delete the ‘village_defend.ff’ file.
17) Again from the Call of Duty 4 DVD9 copy the ‘autorun.inf’ file to the COD4_DVD2 folder.
18) Using the Notepad open the Autorun.inf file and edit as shown below then Save it:
[autorun]
open=0
icon=Setup\data\CoD4.ico
19) Burn the contents of the COD4_DVD2 folder to a DVD with the Label: COD4_DVD2
Installing
The install sequence will be DVD1, DVD2 then DVD1 again.
Because the install finishes with DVD1 it is better to include any patches, cracks etc on DVD1.
