use WinRAR to unpack the rar files. Install and run Daemon Tools.

A little red icon will appear in your system tray. Right click on it. Choose Virtual CD/DVD ROM. Set number of devices>>3 (You might as well mount all the CDs at the same time. You can turn this down to a reasonable number later :D ).

Left click on the icon. Choose Device 0. A file requester pops up. Choose the first .iso/.cue or .nrg file that you unpacked. (not certain which format was used for this but Dameon Tools won't care.)

The FS2 installer should pop up if you've got autostart selected. If not just go to my computer and treat it like you would a normal CD Drive.  

Repeat with devices 1 and 2 to insert the other CDs when you're asked for them.

Nope, FS2 only. V never released the FS1 source.

Not that it can't be found however... :nervous:


But nothing has ever been done with it, as its coding is apparently more archane than FS2's...

*is sure Goober will say arcane is the wrong word*

Depends on what you want to say.  Arcane works (it's not spelled with an H :p) but you may have wanted to say archaic.
