Vampire The Masquerade - Redemption

[taltamir]

You can convert the two CDs to a single install DVD easily:

1. Copy CD2 (play disk) to a temporary directory.
2. Copy CD1 (install disk) to the same directory, overwriting everything...
3. Make an image with a name of your choice (mine was VampireTMR). The original names were VAMPIRE_PLAY and VAMPIRE_INSTALL but that doesn't matter.

Note: For it to work properly you have to copy the play disk FIRST.

This creates a single install DVD, where the intall disk menu comes up rather then the play disk. The difference is that the play disk menu does not mention anything in regards to installing... while the install disk menu has a play button that simply tells you to insert disk 2 in order to play.
This ofcourse is only a problem for someone who has the original CD2.

To overcome this use a no CD patch. (gamecopyworld has a bunch)
Note that you HAVE to remove the "read only" tag from the vampire.exe file to apply any of the patchers from game copy world, otherwise they simply fail to patch the file...

In that case you need the whole conversion done in Inno or CI.
From what I've seen GoG releases their games as 1 big .exe file.

Ultimately, you can just add autorun.inf next to the setup file, edit it to open setup on Disc insert and burn it.

If I am not mistaken with the name of the released Setup file, your Autorun.inf should look like this

[autorun]
open=setup_vampire_the_masquerade_redemption.exe
