To SB (any label probably):
- copy cd2
- copy cd1 (overwrite all)

Burn to DVD.
Install any option (checked with minimum).
Use no-cd.

Tested and working.


WARNING:
This method does NOT allow a FULL install.
Read next post on why.

Then I uninstalled the game and installed DVD version with "complete" install. After the installation the size of game directory is 740 MB. When I start the game it works fine except there are no music and voices. Other sounds are fine (those that are copied from CD1).
So, then I manually copied the music and voices files from CD2 to the game directory, and when I start the game it works fine. All sounds are fine and the size of directory is 1,27 GB (like in retail installation). But what's the point of making this DVD if I have to manually copy sound files after installation.
So, as I sad, the problem is that during installation of DVD version of the game, music and voice files from CD2 are not copied to the game directory
I tried this on 2 different computers.

Thanks for letting me know.

Read the thread. Did a -very- poor job by not testing a full install.

If there's a hex edit fix, I'll post it here.
Apologies to all.

most of these replace files isnt the same for both cds

[retro_codger]

Because the 'complete' install isn't working, I'm asking it be pulled from cd-2-dvd (current method is creating such a problem).

Won't be getting a chance to work on this conversion for awhile (have to physically borrow the CDs again).

IIRC, most of the replaced files wouldn't (?) be a problem. Then again, I don't know what the setup.inx file is checking for either.

:sad:
