just follow conversion steps, do "village_defend.ff" file differently, move that to dvd2 too and in editing msi with orca no need to make 4 row, if english version then just this on 3 row

DiskId = 3
LastSequence = 201
DiskPrompt = COD4_DVD2
VolumnLabel = COD4_DVD2

Copy from DVD1 to DVD2 these files too, just for safe side if needed after install

FirewallInstallHelper.dll
ISSetup.dll
PB.cab
Setup.ini
WindowsInstaller-KB893803-x86.exe
autorun.inf
instmsia.exe
instmsiw.exe
pbsvc.exe
setup.exe
splash.bmp
version.inf
DirectX\*.*
Docs\*.*
Extras\*.*

of course edit autorun.inf in DVD2 like they told. But like i said i don't have game so don't know if it works and is there reason not to end install on dvd2?

Hey thanks once again ravd. You really know how to simplify things. I liked your guide for NFSPS and now you've done it again. Your method works perfectly. Tried and tested!

But, I would have liked to get most of the COD4_DVD1 filled up to the max before splitting the rest to COD4_DVD2. That way, I can put all the 'extras' on DVD2, and for convenience, that's the DVD the installation ends on. Or is that not possibe?

Thanks!!!

Why would an image that is unreadable become readable once burnt to disc? I don't get that. You obviously messed something up in the image.

My second DVD wasn't being read either, until I saw this:

Why the value DiskPrompt and VolumeLabel cannot to be differents?

Thanks for mentioning this. Although the guides in this thread do say that DiskPrompt and VolumeLabel should be COD4_DVD2, I tried to get clever and use the full name "Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare DVD2" for DiskPrompt because in the original msi file, the DiskPrompt value was "Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare". I thought I could use something similar for my DVD2 (I left the VolumeLabel as COD4_DVD2). But it turned out that DVD2 couldn't be recognised.

After reading the above post, I changed the DiskPrompt and VolumeLabel to be same and it worked!

PROPER tutorial for Polish version.

1. Create a Temp folder and name this folder COD4_DVD1 -this will be the name (Label) of DVD1.
2. Copy all the contents of the original DVD to this folder.
3. In folder COD4_DVD1\Setup\Data\main delete folder video and following files:
   localized_polish_iw00.iwd
   localized_polish_iw01.iwd
   localized_polish_iw02.iwd
   localized_polish_iw03.iwd
   localized_polish_iw04.iwd
   localized_polish_iw05.iwd
   localized_polish_iw06.iwd
4. If You want create folders for any Updates, Patches or Cracks.
5. Use ORCA and edit CoD4MW.msi, select Media in left window and change values in right window like this:
   

   DiskId          LastSequence        DiskPrompt      Cabinet       VolumeLabel
   1                     5              COD4_DVD1        PB.cab        COD4_DVD1
   2                    132             COD4_DVD1                      COD4_DVD1
   3                    192             COD4_DVD2                      COD4_DVD2
   4                    199             COD4_DVD1                      COD4_DVD1

6. Make image/burn with name (Label) COD4_DVD1.
7. Create another Temp folder and name this folder COD4_DVD2 -this will be the name (Label) of DVD2.
8. Copy all the contents of the original DVD to this folder.
9. Delete folder DirectX, Docs and Extras.
10. Delete any files form folder COD4_DVD2 except autorun.inf and edit that file in notepad like this:

    iw_11.iwd
13. Make image/burn with name (Label) COD4_DVD2.

Install sequence will be:
DVD1-DVD2-DVD1 - with no errors (bez błędów)


EDIT:

I download CoD4MW.msi for French and English game version from this thread and you can use my tutorial for this game versions if you edit property msi file with ORCA.

If you want use my tutorial for French version game you must edit CoD4MW.msi like this:

DiskId          LastSequence        DiskPrompt      Cabinet       VolumeLabel
1                     5              COD4_DVD1        PB.cab        COD4_DVD1
2                     64             COD4_DVD1                      COD4_DVD1
3                    124             COD4_DVD2                      COD4_DVD2
4                    199             COD4_DVD1                      COD4_DVD1

If you want use my tutorial for English version game you must edit CoD4MW.msi like this:

DiskId          LastSequence        DiskPrompt      Cabinet       VolumeLabel
1                     5              COD4_DVD1        PB.cab        COD4_DVD1
2                     66             COD4_DVD1                      COD4_DVD1
3                    126             COD4_DVD2                      COD4_DVD2
4                    199             COD4_DVD1                      COD4_DVD1

If I get CoD4MW.msi for other languages I can tell how property edit them to use my tutorial.

Sorry for my English.
