*Directories that exist on multiple discs (e.g. ROBOT and VMD directories) must be merged together, not replaced. | *Directories that exist on multiple discs (e.g. ROBOT and VMD directories) must be merged together, not replaced. That means, that files from *all* CDs should be kept in them, as some OSes like Windows and macOS may prompt you to remove the old directory contents and keep the new (that is called "replace"). | ||
*Rename the RESOURCE.SFX from each CD to RESSFX.00<cdnumber>, and the RESOURCE.AUD from each CD to RESAUD.00<cdnumber>, to match the corresponding RESSCI.00<cdnumber> file that exists on each CD. | *Rename the RESOURCE.SFX from each CD to RESSFX.00<cdnumber>, and the RESOURCE.AUD from each CD to RESAUD.00<cdnumber>, to match the corresponding RESSCI.00<cdnumber> file that exists on each CD. | ||
For example, CD1 contains these files: | |||
RESSCI.001 | |||
RESOURCE.AUD | |||
RESOURCE.CFG | |||
RESOURCE.SFX | |||
Rename | |||
RESOURCE.AUD -> RESAUD.001 | |||
RESOURCE.SFX -> RESSFX.001 | |||
If you're prompted to keep the old file extension, say "no", otherwise you may end up with RESAUD.001.AUD and RESSFX.001.SFX which is incorrect | |||
