You could try creating folders cd1, cd2 etc and copy the contents of each cd into the appropriate folder then onto a dvd. It worked once with office on about 15 floppies onto a cd and it worked fine except for the autorun


No just put all the contains of your copyrightted fs9 for your personal use, not to be redistribute wich be a very ilegal, without folder of the 4 cd's into one single folder some commands are equal it will ask if you wanna replace it say yes or no it wont make a difference then youll have a folder fill it up with the contain of 4 disk and hit the fs9.exe it won ask to change anything,i mean cd the entirely instalation will start and end ...that's all,but i recomend there's no difference a little bit of work of changing 1,2,3,4 is the samething
and you'll be 100% sure that the instalations from the legal copys will be correct

Right just a little update for anyone actually wanting to know if it worked or not...ive been away and only got time to do it recently

long story short, i copied everything from each CD into a temp folder, then, opened Nero, select DVDISO, then drag everything from the folder into nero, burn, voila, it actually works, even auto starts and all that...

so much easier and faster.

I recommend you install a programm like "Virtual CD" and save all disks on hard drive. (Or DVD) Then you can install the game...

After installation...

For Playing: The program will create virtual drive and a file and you can tell to put in the cd (which is really a file on your hd) and play the game.

Or you do install it and use a NOCD-FS9.exe

It can be done, like ALROT said before. I've done it as well, and with the intall prg working regularly.

For obvious reasons I can't tell you HOW, but it can be done.
