Any ideas please?
So you solved it ? Also to be sure, redist installed on DVD1 not in DVD4 right ?

Open Installerscript.iss, find this value:

DiskSliceSize=1556000000

Change it with:

DiskSliceSize=1380000000

Thanks again REV0 -this mod means that the game now spans to 5 x DVD's right? Anyone else folowing this thread and REV0's instructions on how to get the installer working correctly will also need to re-modify the clean.bat file to move the new setup files to the correct DVD number etc.

REV0 Is there anyway you can think of to get this to fit to 4 DVD's instead of 5?

Would it also fit on to 2 x DVD9 if the "DiskSliceSize" was changed?

Change compression level to 'lzma'. The current one:

Compression=none

Maybe it'll still fit to 4 DVD5s.

And yes, theoretically it can fit in 2 DVD9s. For this, increase slicesperdisk value in installerscript. Current one is 3, raise it to 6 or sometihng

Cheers
