Deus EX - Invisible War

[reddragon105]

yeh of course you can do it. i've done this with a few games lately. although doing it with Deus Ex: Invisible War isnt going to save you much space.

just make a folder on your hard drive and copy all the files from all the disks of the game into the same folder. its best to do disk 1 *last* as it will have the autorun files and menus etc that you will need to use, and you'll want to overwrite any that have come from the other disks.

then burn it to DVD and give it a shot. should work with most games. use a program such as Magic ISO to create an image of the DVD first, then mount it in Daemon tools or whatever to test it, so that you dont waste any DVDs in the event that it doesnt works.
some games may ask you to browse to a directory part way through installation, thats no problem, just point it to the correct place on the DVD. some (like the recent case of Doom 3) actually ask for the disks and check the volume titles so you've got to edit the install file, which is a simple job.

so far i've done this with Enter the Matrix, Secret Weapons Over Normandy, Knights of the Old Republic, XIII, Thief Deadly Shadows, Splinter Cell 1 & 2, Gothic 2, Dungeon Siege Legends of Aranna, all successfully. i also tried Mafia but that wouldnt work and i couldnt figure it out.

i used to have the USA version of DE:IW on 2 CDs, when it came out in the UK i got the DVD version here. i compared the files of the 2 versions and they were so similar that i see no reason sticking the 2 USA CDs together wouldnt work. remember to stick the patch(s) and crack(s) on the DVD for convenience
