Can you update your conversion to fit the new expansion dawnguard and the new patch?

[mikey26]

just update ur version of the game and this conversion should world the same if not mistaken

[REV0]

It'll work, possibly, not sure about the size tho, better to wait senseman's reply

[mikey26]

dawnguard is around 2 gb extra since senseman used 0 compression in freearc i guessing with a bit more compression should fit onto 2 xdvd5.will test out.

[senseman]

UPDATE

Updated to CI 8.4.3
Added v1.7.7 Patch Support
Added Dawnguard DLC

[Grumpy]

@senseman

I have changed the title and will also change the name in the Index.

P.S: In future you can PM me for title changes. ;)

[senseman]

MULTI8 support added

[antohi]

where should I extract TESV 2xDVD5?in the skyrim directory?or separately?

[senseman]

where should I extract TESV 2xDVD5?in the skyrim directory?or separately?

extract completely (wherever you want)

[antohi]

I have another question I can't understand at all when I finish the compiling and when I try to install can I change the partition where I install the game?or it's predefined in the script?I mean ISS script.

[REV0]

You will apply number 6 according to your game's installed location. When compiling is done setup will start close it and continue to apply conversion.

And you can change the install location WHEN you want to install the game.

[antohi]

you have forgotten to point out in the tutorial.shouldn't the original install files deleted before the conversion?also there is any quality loss in the cut scenes in the game?

[25698412]

it works if I dont wanna install the updates and dlc?

[senseman]

it works if I dont wanna install the updates and dlc?

yes it works...Update v1.7.7 + DLC

[Kamyk95]

I presume it's also Hearthfire compatible?

[REV0]

I presume it's also Hearthfire compatible?

Apply the conversion BUT change the compression to lzma/max, try and tell us the results

[KaktoR]

Heathfire DLC ~140MB. Just do what revo say. I think it fits on 2xDVD5 (i cant test this because i dont use the texture pack).

[Kamyk95]

OK, I'll try.

[inovateqsa]

Cool, quick question though:

Does this install the game and DLC at the same time - Or can you choose which to install?
For instance I would like to install Dawnguard separate due to mods.

[pakrat2k2]

its based on what you have already installed, so it does everything. You cant choose what to install. Just install what you want including your mods then run the conversion it'll compress everything into a new installer.

[subzero242]

Using the conversion lmza/normal and lzma/max doesn't work.....normal make 3 dvd5 and max 1dvd5 and 1dvd9.....monday i try lzma2/ultra64....3h!!!!! :O

[inovateqsa]

nah, doesn't work correctly for mods - The 'Data Files' option in the Launcher is greyed out - so I cannot enable any of my mods. (unless maybe I get a mod manager).

Getting a mod manager is a bit of an irritation though as I want a 1-click easy installer for when a mod messes up my installation, which is just a matter of time.

Everything else works fine though.

If anyone knows why the 'data files' option in the launcher isn't work help would be appreciated.

If the DATA FILES entry is not clickable, you need to
go to your Documents\My Games\Skyrim directory, open SkyrimPrefs.ini and addthe following line under the [Launcher] section:
bEnableFileSelection=1

Hello friend, thanks a lot for your conversions!

I'm facing a problem with the conversion, I'm using the 3xdvd5 method and Disk 1 and 2 go fine but the third weighs 4.39 GB, now, I've installed this:

Game
Update .18
DLCs (3)
Hi-Res Textures package (2013)
Spanish Voices for DLC (for the 3)

How can I reduce that the weigh to make a perfect conversion?

Thanks for your help and sorry for annoying.

[Lothan88]

Ahhh and I forgot to tell you that for example, for the installer in Spanish the stressed letters are not shown. The font doesn't support the stressed characters, its says M sica in stead of Música and Intalaci n in stead of Installación.

just change compression or delete everything in DirectX10 folder,replace with web installer version

http://www.microsoft.com/en-ca/download/details.aspx?id=35

just change the Directx name in setup.ini to match new one

O.K. I thought that but if I want to change the font how can I do it? I guess that it comes with the precomp content and I cannot modify it. I haven't made my first conversion script yet.

Thanks for your answers but I'll ask again:

How can I change the font?

As I said I have no experience with scripts so I tried to find if there was a font file with your package and I didn't find it neither the background images, That's why I assume that backgrounds and fonts (everything related to the UI) come in the precompiled files. for me there's no problem to use English, however I cannot see much sense of having an entire game in Spanish and the installer in English. :)

[pakrat2k2]

open up setup.cab & replace the existing font file with one you want to use . The setup.cab, will be in Skyrim_DVD1 folder.

[senseman]

Your HD textures old ?

[Xaelin]

I did write all updates.Because , i tested one by one all updates.
Added update x and after used conversion each time.

Your HD textures old ?
Yes.

Sorry for my broken english.

[HellRazor]

If the DATA FILES entry is not clickable, you need to
go to your Documents\My Games\Skyrim directory, open SkyrimPrefs.ini and addthe following line under the [Launcher] section:
bEnableFileSelection=1

You can add this to your piece of code under [Files].
Source: "ini\SkyrimPrefs.ini"; DestDir: "{userdocs}\My Games\Skyrim";

I think that you need to start Launcher once for the file to get created. Then you edit it to add "bEnableFileSelection=1" statement and save the modification. After that, make folder called "ini" in same folder as InstallerScript.iss and move SkyrimPrefs.ini to that folder.

Also, you should change the order of Installations of original files from Update v1.9.29.0 => Dragonborn DLC to Dragonborn DLC => Update v1.9.29.0...
Dragonborn DLC was released in February, Update 1.9 was released in March. (Cosmetic Change)

[senseman]

I did write all updates.Because , i tested one by one all updates.
Added update x and after used conversion each time.

Yes.

OK and use new HD texture pack ( v2013 4.7gb ) because with HD texture 2xDVD5 not possible

In addition to high resolution textures in the main game, the update adds improved textures for Dawnguard,Hearthfire,and the newly-released Dragonborn

How to use:
Follow senseman's pointers from the first post.
After step 3, unpack my archive to the same folder as you did his files (Consider this as step 3a).
Overwrite his setup.cab and setup.ini. Continue with step 4 and further.

[Ewan]

Excuse me, I stumbled upon this problem when I was trying to install DVD1:

http://www.wbb-img.com/images/3396Untitled.png

I successfully burned the files and everything.

Any help or tips will be very much appreciated :D

[pakrat2k2]

2dvd5 or 3dvd5 version ?
do you have the whats listed for the separate versions all installed ?

[Ewan]

Well, I actually got 4 DVD5s after compiling. In the DVD1 folder there was a "4.bin" or something like that.

Basically the installation was a success, apart from the Dragonborn thing :)

[pakrat2k2]

do you have the legendary edition installed ?
3xDVD5 => Main game => High Resolution Texture Pack v2013 => Dawnguard DLC => Hearthfire DLC => Dragonborn DLC => Update v1.9.32.0

Everything listed MUST be installed, or you will encounter issues. You've done all 7 steps without missing anything too ?
