Latex multiple picture inside a single one figure

Question

There is a few paragraph of dummy text. After that I want the figure to be forced below the text. The figure contains multiple includegraphics pictures, and it does not fit into one page, thus the figure should cut in half at a certain point (latex should decide where, when the page is full).

Currently what I have:

Page-1

Page-2

You do not want a float, so simply remove the figure

This puts each row into a separate figure. The first uses [b] and the rest [bt!] to bypass the \@botnum and \@topnum limits. This forces the floats to either be at the top or bottom of a page, making them contiguous.

I commented out all the irrelevant or unused packages.

The first four floats are placed in \@botlist immediately and \pagegoal is reduced accordingly. The remainder are placed in \@deferlist until shipout (\newpage) when they are moved to \@toplist on the new page.
