I found this at a site I am a member of called cd-2-dvd.com As the name implies it tells you how to take a bunch of game cd's and make one game DVD. Anyway these instructions were posted by a person with the SN - Grumpy - so heres what he posted (it calls for a program called Orca to edit a .msi file. Orca is free and available at cd-2-dvd.com). Hope it works for ya - PeaInAPod :)

Farcry


1) Create a folder on your hardrive and name
it: FARCRY_1 (This will be the name of the DVD)

2) Starting from CD5 then CD4, CD3, CD2 and
lastly CD1 copy all folders and files to this
newly created FARCRY_1 folder. This will leave
the correct ‘Autorun.inf’ untouched. Overwrite
anything else that doubles up.

6) Download and Install ‘Orca’. Once Orca is
installed, Right Click the file ‘Far Cry.msi’ and
from near the top of the menu choose ‘Edit with Orca’.
(You may have to edit the properties of this file
and untick the ‘read only’ attribute, but as it is
copied to the harddrive it is probably already edited
automatically). When opened you will see 2 window panes,
go to the ‘Tables’ one on the left and scroll down to ‘Media’
Click on ‘Media’ this will show you the entries in the Right pane.
Change all the entries in the ‘VolumeLabel’ column to: FARCRY_1
Then ‘Save’ it.


4) Now burn to a DVD using the Label FARCRY_1.
