The best way to do this, is not by merging the DVDs but by creating BIN/CUE files of all 6 CDs. Then you can burn these BIN/CUE files on DVD and imgmount them in DOSBOX. That's IMGmount, not regular mount. With imgmount you can mount lots of BIN/CUE files and use the CTRL F4 (I believe) command to swap CD images inside Dosbox.

so basicly i put like 6 .bin/cue files on a dvd and than select them to be mounted when starting dosbox through imgmount?

well if that works thats great but does that mean i wasted a cd with the merger method?

Might depend on the exact version of the game, and stuff like that,
so you'll never have a definite answer to that.
Safest thing to do is to create the 6 cue/bin pairs of the cdroms as
red_avatar said, leaving them on the harddisk. Then check if the
game works fine, if it does burn the stuff on a dvd.

okay, ill try that..thanks for the help..im pretty close to finally playing one of my all time favorites..ill update this thread if it worked or not 😀

im now able to play pandora directive. Thanks a million ive been trying since 2001 to get it working again and always with a lot of bugs. It works smooth now and i will burn a dvd of the images soon (i made .iso instead of .bin/cue and it works just as well)

Thanks for the support and help to everyone who helped me now and somewhere 2004 😜

don't complaign if the music doesn't work then 😉
(I don't know if the game uses audio tracks or not)

Nope 😜 it uses MIDI. I just use Bin/Cue because it's more faithful.
