Question about multi-disc games number order.

Recommended Posts

Thank you in advance for any and all help provided,

 My question is about multi-disc games. How do I distinguish the 2nd, 3rd...etc.. discs(Dead Space 2/L.A. Noir/FFXIII) when it comes to hiding the other discs. Is there a database to find the media for multi discs(like unity)? I install discs through the extra function(Aurora/FSD3) not via GOD. I know iso2god lets you rename discs before converting them, The extract feature also let's you rename before extracting but is there a better way to install multi-disc games? I get a smaller game extract so that's why I use that method instead. Or does it not really matter what disc number I use to launch the game?

It depends on the game if it matters, most games it won't make a difference (the ones where the story/game continues on the next disc... but games that have multiplayer on the second disc it does matter

Personally, I change the settings for the default view to add filter to add hide multi disc filter. Now it only shows me the first disc for every multi disc game. Much faster, and with utility scripts, easier. i could write you a script that does it, in like 10 minutes.

You can also use the 'Disc Number' subtitle in the game options, which will show you which disc number the selected game is.  Then you can choose to hide it, if its a number you don't want visible.

If you have ff13 extracted, you can copy contents from disc 2 and 3, into disc 1's folder.. keep disc 1 default.xex, and run it that way.. no need for multiple discs, saving you Gb's of space..

Would this work for most multi-disc games?
