C&C First Decade DVD backup

[BarryB]

I think it can!

I used ReWritable DVD's to test though, and this was doing a COMPLETE 9.8GB install

1. Copy everything except the DATA8.CAB to DATA14.CAB files to one DVD. You don't need a volume label for either DVD.

2. Copy the DATA8.CAB to DATA14.CAB files, launcher.dat and the 'support' folder to the second DVD.

3. Install from the first DVD and when asked 'Please insert disk 7 that contains the file data8.cab' insert the second DVD and continue installing

Better still, you can copy it to 13 CD's if you want

So, its 100% confirmed that the game will work backed up this way??

Also, will I able to install just 1 game, or I need to install the whole package??

Thanks!

Also, (sorry for the double post) can I put a folder with all the nocd fixes on one of the dvds??

@Aldarion666

can I put a folder with all the nocd fixes on one of the dvds??

Yes.
Providing it will fit of course! I dont have the games myself so I dont know how big it all is but I really doubt it would be to big to fit another folder containing the cracks etc.
It works for all the CD2DVD conversion I do.

Why did they produce a dual-layer version when the entire thing already came out on a single layer DVD?
