First, create a folder on your hard drive called Silent Hill 3. Then start by copying all the contents of discs 1-4 into the main folder. Then copy all the contents of disc 5 except “sound_3.cab” into the main folder. For the “sound_3.cab” file, copy it to any other folder, then rename it to “sound_32.cab”, and move that file into your Silent Hill 3 folder. The reason for this is that both disc 4 and disc 5 have files called “ sound_3.cab”, so to use both without overwriting either one, I renamed the second one, and then edited the .msi accordingly. [As follows]

Next, open Silent Hill 3.msi in Orca, and navigate to the Media tab on the left. On the right you’ll have over 40 rows to of entries. In the cabinet column, there are 2 “sound_3.cab”’s, on listed one disc 4 and one on disc 5. Rename the one on disc 5 to “sound_32.cab”, so now during install it will use the file you renamed earlier. Next, change every entry under Volume Label to disc1. Save the file and close Orca.

I also made a new subfolder called Crack and stuck my nocd patch in it. Then I burned all the contents of the Silent Hill 3 folder to DVD with Nero, with the label disc1. You’ll need to manually copy the cracked.exe in to the install dir order to play the game.

It's working. I also added widescreen patch files. Thank you.
