Mafia: How to install & play (EASY)
It's very easy to install & play Mafia. This method worked for me:
First I made a folder on my C-drive called MAFIA. Then I copied the contents of all 3 CDs to that folder, overwriting files when the computer asked me to. Next I went to the homepage of MEGAGAMES (w*w.megagames.com) and downloaded the nocd patch from GimpsRus. I unpacked the file GAME.EXE to C:\Mafia\MafiaGame\ overwriting the original GAME.EXE file. Then I made a shortcut to GAME.EXE (in the MafiaGame folder) on my desktop. I doubleclicked the shortcut and VOILA !!!!! Somehow the game works perfectly without even installing it. The only thing install does, is copying the folder MafiaGame from the 3 CDs to your C-drive. I hope this solution works for all of you !!!!! It's a KICKASS game !!!!!

Hiya peterfriis, just wanted to post the same thing to the forum...
 Yeah, no need to fool around with installation, just copy the CD contents into a directory and get a no-CD patch...However, be warned, the gimpsRus no-CD patch contains some modifications (when compared to the unwrapped executable by Fairlight) whose reasons I couldn't find out! These _may_ cause the game to lock up or behave erratically. I suggest that you use one of the other two no-CD patches: Fl@sh or BH/Evo (these are also based on the Fairlight unprotected executable). Happy gaming, Joe
