Thanks a Lot ravd ^^

Yes it can be made into full backup DVD5 or english only DVD5

There is 2,7 GB of BIK files which need to be compressed down to 2,0 GB for english only and down to 1,7 GB for full backup

You just need to learn about how to compress with RAD Video tools and how to compress BIK files with multiple audio streams (not all biks have multiple audio streams)

Compressing so many biks takes LOTS of time so suggest too make 2xDVD5 instead

tested / working :eek:

Thanks RAVD

:D

Do you have these files in dvd2

\disk2.txt
\Setup\disk2.txt

:D didn't know Prince Caspian was exactly similar, but i took some pointers from turok, expecially CDSWAP and disk1.txt things

i noticed you manually wrote all files which goes to dvd2 in caspian conversion

What i wrote in this PURE conversion does same but now you can move any files/folders from Game folder to DVD2, and it still works

Only thing is that there must be atleast one file in root of Game\ folder or my conversion will error file *.* not found

100% work.

VISTA x64

thats weird cause installer installs all files what it can find in game folder, if there is none then installer will still finish installation, depending what button you press. It will error "file *.* not found" if you have no files on root of "Game\" folder (3 .dll files)

DVD2 game folder should be like this

Game\Data\Movies\*.*
Game\Data\Microsoft.VC80.CRT\*.*
Game\binkw32.dll
Game\fmod_event.dll
Game\fmodex.dll

or is there dll files in game folder in multi7?

seems its not installing these files into install folder, these are not necessary and are only used for game registration, but copy eReg folder from dvd to installed pure folder and test if you think is causing problems

eReg\data.bmp
eReg\DSN1.exe

you might be right, so filecount for multi3 should be 13 not 11? this might be problem with not installing ereg files, but original ini for multi7 has filecount 17 but last readme ends at 19

But i'll add those changes to conversion, FileCount=13 for multi3 and FileCount=21 for multi7

Thanks for pointing that out mondragon

maybe someone check with orginal version if with orginal ini
installer copy Readme_RU.txt and files/folders Localized\Russian\
naturally for russian version

edit
ereg orginal ? section
mine in caspian converted
edit
mine ereg works for all language
maybe in these conversion only for english

@ RAVD

Thanks for the tip mate, but it's not wotking.

CONVERSION - 10.108 files / 761 folders
ORIGINAL - 10.116 files / 763 folders

I've copied "eReg" folder in Pure default folder, and also "lang.ini" and "PURE_eManual" (these 3 were missing), but a couple of files are also missing in DATA folder - 3 files / 1 folder.

@Stevi
in what language you install
can say more specific what files?

you can use md5summer to create checskums of installled folder for orginal insaller
but that takes time
and use that checksum to check converted installed folder

edit
dont have acces to game
q: how many files is on dvd2 ?

@ mondragon

I've installed in English.

I' don't know which files, i've just compared DATA folder for conversion and the original (right click/properties), and it's smaller for 3 files and 1 folder.

DVD2 - 454 files / 40 folders, without NO-CD files.

for mutli3 version i use these install.ini
10116 dvd9 = 10116 2xdvd5
tested with english

edit
and finish testing ravd multi3 - again 10116 files in correct place ;)
guys better check what you do :P

ravd why you not post on cd-2-dvd :)

@ RAVD

Thanks mate for the updated ini. It's finally working! ;)

Here is my edited "install.ini" for people that can't get it to work:

http://rapidshare.com/files/147497593/install.ini.html

Enjoy mofo's ! :D

megaupload link for re-compressed movies: megaupload
the file size is 586MB - enough for a DVD5 (it will let you ~150MB free for stuff like crack, wallpapers, trailers, trainers, etc.)
Total DVD size after apply movies re-compressed: 4.22GB

DVD9-2-DVD5 (Multi3: ENG/FRA/SPA)
Instructions:
1.- Create a new folder an name it PURE
2.- Copy all the files from your DVD to that folder
3.- Extract the content of the PURE_Movies.RAR into setup\game\data and overwrite all folder & files
4.- Grab the crack from GCW & Trainers (if available)
5.- Name the DVD PURE and burn it!

Installation tested & working :)

rapidshare links tomorrow (3x196MB)

Rapidshare links for re-coded movies:

Part 1/7
Part 2/7
Part 3/7
Part 4/7
Part 5/7
Part 6/7
Part 7/7

It has to be in 7 parts because RS gives me error if I upload through the web page so I have to use the uploader tool and it only allows me to send 100MB at the time.

Enjoy!

you have the path in the uninstall section.
you find "Disney" entries but they contains only "pure\1.0" and nothing more.
never find an entry with the "Black Rock Studio" name on it.

They stated a DLC may come out but nothing about a patch.
The multiplayer is dead in this game :( and people complains about the number of keys needed to perform the tricks and the loading times in high-end machines.

then better add that uninstall section manually in inno
and add that
c:\Program Files\InstallShield Installation Information\GUID
folder to inno to skip running orginal exe

have vista or xp?

edit
lzma =3979 with dx9

script for inno
install Inno Setup
open empty script
paste my code
save in folder: [for example with name pure.iss]
c:\Program Files\pure.iss
must be saved in folder where you have installed game
if you install in
c:\Program Files\Disney Interactive Studios\Pure\
then pust script iss in
c:\Program Files\

compile [need 4gb free space on the same partition
after compiling finished put direcx folder from dvd to
c:\Program Files\Output\

thats all

its simple script, tested on english but must works on every language

edit
added GAMEUX registry section
vcredist.exe [put vcredist from dvd9 to output place]
edit2
fix parameters for vcredit- take option from dilaunch.ini

Your script do the job pretty well mondragon.
Some things are left uninstalled like VC++ but I think it doesn't harm.
I see you don't compress the videos since they won't compress at all and you avoid the registry entries for the uninstaller and the gameux (if you upgrade from XP to Vista)
Some games like CoH stores all the information needed for patching there.
Check here: \HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Ga meUX\GamesToFindOnWindowsUpgrade\{2FBD6992-D28B-45CB-8E52-177E6B07DAD5}

The compression uses a total of 3.4GB. Pretty impressive.

probably that resolve one thing

for now i skip uninstaller section - it need more knowledge to do it proper [for example date isnt static ]
gameux see but dont know for what really is used
some games uses uninstall section to install patch

gameux looks easy to add [but probably need register dll]

edit something about GameUX for windows
game ux for windows on msdn
some progs to GUX
Game Definition File Editor

I don't see the uninstall problem - maybe because am green in this stuff.

About the GameUX am going to check what I can do. It can't be hard to master and many game includes the "gameuxinstallhelper.dll" which has all the necessary functions to register and remove a game.

what do I do with these files ? are they empty ? why create them ?
I don't understand this.

also, will the conversion on the first post of this thread work fine ?
I have the 3-language version.

that disk1.txt and disk2.txt are empty
needed for installer , it search for it and with it recognize disk

Installer won't recognize second dvd as DISK2 if there is no disk2.txt files

Conversion is working correctly, but i suggest doing nando2002 dvd9 to dvd5 conversion with compressed biks

It's easier to do and fits on one dvd5

ravd multi3 conversion works for me. thanks !

Thanks. Works fine. :D

multi3 conversion to 2 DVDs works great :)

100% working.
i made the conversion and tested it in vista ultimate x64

Will be later a 1xDVD5 MULTI7 conversion for 1 language?
