Max Payne 3 - 4 DVD9 to 6 DVD5 *INNO SETUP* by REVO

WHY U NO DVD5 ?

From current look, you technically can't separate multiplayer and singleplayer files.

The most important size of folders is 16 gb of 'pc' folder and it was created as 'levels' not separated as single or multi content. Sorry guys.

V1.00 - Initial Release
V1.01 - Current Release

-Regkey about install directory has been fixed.


1. Install the game.

2. Download the attachment below. Open it with Unicode Version of INNO Setup Edit Game's Path according to your game's installed location:

#define ProgramFiles "D:\Program Files (x86)\Rockstar Games\Max Payne 3"


3. Click 'Compile' and order a pizza and drink your beer.

4. Create 6 folders and name them as: MP3_1, MP3_2, MP3_3, MP3_4, MP3_5, MP3_6

5. Move:

Setup1*.bin files, Setup.exe, Setup.ico, Setup.cab, Setup.ini, autorun.inf, Setup.dll to MP3_1
Setup2*.bin files, Setup.ico to MP3_2
Setup3*.bin files, Setup.ico to MP3_3
Setup4*.bin files, Setup.ico to MP3_4
Setup5*.bin files, Setup.ico to MP3_5
Setup6*.bin files, Setup.ico to MP3_6

6. Copy:

Redistributables folder which is located in DVD1 of Max Payne 3 to MP3_6
autorun.inf to MP3_2, MP3_3, MP3_4,MP4_5,MP_6

7. Edit all autorun.inf files except MP3_1 like below:

[autorun]
icon=Setup.ico
open=0

SIDE NOTES

Conversion is 6DVDs because of it, i strongly recommend to install game with compiled bin files, then burn them to DVDs.

4 DVD9 OPTION

If you want to use DVD9s instead DVD5s, use values below:

SlicesPerDisk=5
DiskSliceSize=1708200000

[pakrat2k2]

if the conversion went to 6xDVD5's, then why end at MP3_4 folder in instructions ? Missing couple of folders, or does it only 4xdvd5 ???

[pman626]

I hate innosetup. very dirty.

How come there is no layout.bin editor that will work????

old way = edit layout.bin and repack cab files into 3.9gb

no working tools ?

[pakrat2k2]

not since installshield updated. hasnt worked that way since V14 or V15 ??

[pman626]

you can download iscabview.exe and a bunch of other required dll files.

I just downloaded a working iscabview.exe extracted from the latest installshield evaluation version.

Isn't this enough to repack the cab files?

the old layout.bin editor can still edit the layout.bin file

EPIC FAIL.

I did this conversion in 2:00 AM i dont know why i didnt added 5th and 6th folder LOLOLOL

Fixed


I hate innosetup. very dirty.

dirty ? use freearc instead for more than 3k files, it will define 'dirty' word very different

[Chompower]

The folder "movies" weighs 8.05GB :eek:
All videos are in. bik .. long will it take to recode?
but, will save a lot of space.:D

WTF are you doing with iscabview.exe?:confused:

You need Iscab.exe for game repacking, but Iscab is no longer available from the 2010 version, however iscab v15 still working with that version, unfortunately from version 17 (2011), iscab v15 no longer works because it has been added unicode support.

Max Payne 3 uses v.18.0.329 (2012) of Installshield engine, and so the solution is a custom installer.

[REV0]

but, will save a lot of space.:D

If you re-code them or lower quality it can save you from 3-4 GB, which means 1 DVD5.

Even if you lower quality by %75 which is bad, you have to use 5DVD5 becuse you will have approx. 1.6 GB content from DVD6 anyway.

[foo8088]

PC folder is precompresable , arc > pcf > srep > arc can make it smaller , 4.8gb become 1.9gb

[prudislav]

Can this be repacked to 3DVD9 with inno?

[Prashantoo7]

Can u please create Max Payne 3 setup like DiRT Showdown created by yener90
with converter
its easy to repack it with freearc and imgburn :D

[REV0]

Sure, what else do you need ?

[REV0]

Setup has been fixed to V101 version.

And since you're not paying people to create conversion, stop requesting everything. I've spent hours to the theme and testing, and only thing you're saying is requesting something else.

Easy to say, do it yourself.

[prudislav]

just wanna ask - which number i should put here to have maximal usage of DVD9:
DiskSliceSize=1550000000
SlicesPerDisk=3

if i wanna do DVD9 installer ?

[yener90]

SlicesPerDisk=3
-> change this to 6

follow conversion, you will not have setup4*-setup6*

[prudislav]

SlicesPerDisk=3
-> change this to 6

follow conversion, you will not have setup4*-setup6*
thats not what i ment
DVD5 is 4.35GB and DVD9 is 7.95 GB so this will not work correctly for me

[GAMES_PC]

WARNING:


Since it has and need registry keys, i strongly recommend to install game with compiled bin files, then burn them to DVDs.

so this compilation not have registry keys? thx for advanced

Since it has and need registry keys...

Try to read it now.


To be more clear,

It HAS REGISTRY KEYS because of it recommend you to TEST before wasting your 6 DVDs. If you have lots of 'em, burn the darn thing.

[Prashantoo7]

Sure, what else do you need ?

Thks :D

[jabreek]

got error when running compiler using v01 "line 78: Source "N:\MAX_PAYNE3_V101\Include\packjpg_dll.dll" does no exist"

why?

[yener90]

disable antivirus software and then extract the files follow conversion.
after conversion finished, activate antivirus software again

[pakrat2k2]

[zyo]

6dvds? wow. Hopefully someone can shrink this monster a bit down.

[pakrat2k2]

the movies are only 8GB, maybe reencode down to couple GB. But what about the other 20GB, going to take some work to get it shrunk down for sure.

[dogyutz]

OMG? its very strong compression=lzma2/ultra64 it takes 3:20 hours to compile the files and 1:30 hours to install the game.

resampling the biks:
club.bik
clubride.bik
mp3_logo_bink_pt02.bik
s_fashion.bik
s_office.bik
s_pana.bik
s_stad.bik

and set compression=none
it takes 27 minutes compile and installing the game. :p :p

Great job REVO!

[hendra13042004]

Dude, i did the same thing set compression to none and it comes to 7 DVD but when i try to run setup.exe i have an error Runtime Error (at329:431): Could not call proc.

Whats happen ?

[dogyutz]

[mehrdad]

can you mi give script of inno setup to for example one folder copy in system32 when install the setup?help me please
sorry for my english

[mehrdad]

i just want to copy "Profiles" folder to USERPROFILE*Documents/Rockstar Games/Social Club* when install the setup. give script please

[sstanke]

Is this the final conversion or the game can put on less DVD's? Regards

[pakrat2k2]

Is this the final conversion or the game can put on less DVD's? Regards
can be put on less dvd's IF you cut out multiplayer & re-encode all Biks, & audio files. But thats alot more work then willing to take on right now, and may only reduce by couple dvds. Easiest is to change diskspanning to use 2xdvd9? and burn them, instead of 6xdvd5

[danicolo2k12]

Somebody can help me to convert this game from dvd9 to dvd5 ? I can´t do it with procedure you put here... Sorry for my bad english.... i´m uruguayan...
Somebody speak spanish here ?? Thanks

[Onizuka87k]

I think the best compression you can reach is about 11GB (so basically 1DVD9+1DVD5) but it need the resampling of all 1080p videos to at least 720p.
Fucking game! :p

Anyway GREAT JOB REV0! ;)

[Good Man]

reencode the video biks:
s_club.bik
s_clubride.bik
mp3_logo_bink_pt02.bik
s_fashion.bik
s_office.bik
s_pana.bik
s_stad.bik

:

what you mean ? edit the inno or add it on the inno sorry i ma nood :) in the inno ?

tk

[pakrat2k2]

Good Man, read this topic to understand how to reencode video biks. ( takes tons of time, and NOT easy to accomplish IF you dont understand basics )

hi how to move "profiles" folder in setup to C:\Users\YOUR USERNAME\Documents\Rockstar Games\Social Club .please give script for this action

[zyo]

Installation is painfully slow even on my SSD/Quad Core computer...
I am afraid in this case re-encoding is a necessity (I usually hate downsampling but 30mins to install a game is ridiculous).

[termic]

How delete multiplayer.

[REV0]

Wait yener90 conversion.

Stop trolling people's threads, this is the conversion you will find until someone else rip 1080p cutsenes to 480p and make the game a warez Rip.

If you want to wait yener's conversion go wait for it, but stop spamming in my thread and learn to say thanks first.

You can't they're not separate.

guys this inno if you want Compile the game do it if you dont want Wait yener90 conversion but respect the man who tired to make this inno for us

for me great work revo :)

Thanks for your comment damar15, sometimes i'm thinking why am i doing this.

@REV0
Very important conversion question I think you didnt explain to well.

3. Click 'Compile' and order a pizza and drink your beer.

Once we order the pizza, do we wait for the pizza to arrive before opening our beer? :P

On a serious note, yes people will always expect more and some are never gratefull for what they receive, many have no idea how much time actually goes into some of these conversions. But most are very appreciative of what people like yourself do. Just ignore the negative questions or responses and concentrate on the good comments.

Well done mate, nice work.

Now, about the opening of the beer? :)

You're right: Many members of the forum don't know how much time it's invested in the conversion making.
About the beer, i think you could drink two (one before the pizza arrive and one after the pizza arrive);)
And about the conversion: THX for the conversion. You have done a great job (as always) :P

[REV0]

Thanks for your comments, much appreciated everyone, and considering conversion time 2 beers might not be enough lol

[zealot10]

can cut multiplayer files and put into 5dvds?

[REV0]

Many people including me, already replied multiplayer cut-off question, in fact i also replied in thread. Try to read my explication.

[zealot10]

thanks and sorry for misunderstanding REV0

[The-revenge]

many people looking for impossibile things...I think that this compressions is a great job, due to a many time spent to do this; the game size compress from 28 to 25 gb, but don't forget the price of support : 4 DVD9 = 2 euros, 6 DVD5 = 60 euro cents!!
For this reason I suggest to thanks every people make this conversion and share this for the comunity!!
(sorry for my english)

Like how DiRT showdown has converter files its easy with it
just run the converter and it will start repacking the game :p

The game installed ok on 32bit win7, but .net installer doesn't work properly I think the installer tried to install 64bit instead of 32bit.
Also the shortcut should point to launcher instead of the main exe?

It changes, the 'serial number' kinda folder is changing every Game Club installation, you cant know what number it'll be as folder name after installation.

Revo Got Something Wrong

the end does not install the Social Club, DirectX and ETC ...

you found it?????????

Did you copy their folder ?

The game installed ok on 32bit win7, but .net installer doesn't work properly I think the installer tried to install 64bit instead of 32bit.
Also the shortcut should point to launcher instead of the main exe?

Shorcut depends,

MyExecutableName=MaxPayne3.exe change this line in setup.ini with PlayMaxPayne3.exe

I'm using directly exe file, no problems so far.

Thanks REVO!!Conversion works perfectly!I had a single problem,after finishing the conversion I installed the game in French but the game started in English!!The game supports only English or would be added something to a registry?
After I installed the game, it appears in,, regedit,,:

You will edit lang code in script, change it to 1036, one you have.

[Optixs]

It fits on 3xdvd5 with videos resampled ~ 10 gb, on 4xdvd5 without resampling work.

I already made the archives, i don't recommend to anyone to do it, because it requires too much time :eek::D


Peter can you share those archives, that will help me alote ...thank you.

[pakrat2k2]

silviugut

add to the lang = ptbr, OR if you want installer in your lang, remove all except the ptbr

the proper code for ptbr--> Portuguese - Brazil 1046 which is not needed.. you have the code section proper in installerscript.iss

Root: HKLM; SubKey: "SOFTWARE\{code:GetAppPublisher}\Rockstar Games Social Club"; ValueType: string; ValueName: locale; ValueData: {cm:LanguageNR}; Flags: uninsdeletekey;

just delete the original setup.exe, and compile the script again. it will create new exe for you that will work properly
so game installs / plays in proper lang for you.

why conversion to 7 dvd if you can make it in 6 ? :P

[Th3Raven]

Sorry REVO I tried it for twice, installed and uninstalled the game, and it did not work.
Thanks anyway:).In Setup.ini the first lines shoul look like this:
[InstallOptions]
ApplicationName=Max Payne 3
Publisher=Rockstar Games
MyExecutableName=PlayMaxPayne3.exewhy conversion to 7 dvd if you can make it in 6 ? :P

Maybe because the time needed for making in 6 X DVD5(takes hours even on a high end PC)

[jackstuff]

why conversion to 7 dvd if you can make it in 6 ? :P

Because Conversion Takes Lots of time, And at Installation process it also takes so much of time to complete
so by expending on one dvd more make a time saves & i don't think so that one dvd can shake your budget

:rolleyes:

Hey Revo
I Compile the game
and when i start the setup.exe
it says " file missing"
and when i copy and paste setup.zip file which is in the MAX_PAYNE3_V101.rar
the setup runs :P
I think its becauz, the files of icon the music while installing are all in the setup.zip
file
so the setup.exe ask for it
is there any way to compile the setup.zip file while compiling the game ?? :D

Check this images :-

hi man read the instructions in the conversion of revo omg :eek:

copy the ( Setup.exe, Setup.ico, Setup.cab, Setup.ini, autorun.inf, Setup.dl)
in dvd one

http://www2.0zz0.com/2012/06/09/18/441606785.png

and conversion work perfect so you do it wrong :)

[HerrDoktor]

Ehrm ...

Hi, sorry I'm a bit new and I've tried the method to split up the game.
Got it in 6 dvd5.
I use setup, choose directory and let it install ... the installation lasts 1 second and looking at directory under Rockstar Games there is the folder Uninstall with a bunch of icons and files and a dll ... that's all this setup is installing.

Can't figure out what's wrong :|.

[REV0]

Make sure you pointed correct path also there shouldnt be any semicolon ( ; ) in front of the path you will edit (check description)

[HerrDoktor]

Thanks Rev0 for support :).

So, I used again Inno Setup and I left it centrifuge my Max Payne installed directory.
I've obtained again *.bin files, but this time at the end of the splitting process (which launches setup.exe), I didn't press cancel like first time but "install/uninstall" - does Inno script launches setup.exe at the end of the process?
Now installation looks fine, I'll run more tests.

To modify setup.ini it's only about changing "MyExecutableName=MaxPayne3.exe" for "MyExecutableName=PlayMaxPayne3.exe" ?

If it created bin files, that's good. And yes, after compiling INNO always run setup.exe.

Setup.ini edit will do the job.

[HerrDoktor]

Ok, but that's part of the process like recording a "macro"?

I mean INNO launching setup.exe does affect something in installation process after that?
Probably got my first try screwed by something (first attempt stopped after 30 minutes because Windows 7 reserved access to a file into install dir). Second attempt produced unusable installation.

It has to be said though I had Nod32 running, even with protection disabled. That could be the cause.

[HerrDoktor]

Lol ok install now is fine but game doesn't start.

I made a clean split from a Max Payne 3 installation with patch 1.0.0.29 + cure. Blocking that useless Social Club and logging in, games freezes at black screen with wide "MAX PAYNE 3" text. :D

Trying a new installation + patch + cure and again new splitting with Nod32 completely turned off. :\

[REV0]

Blocking Social Club is not a wise idea, also run the game from 'PlayMaxPayne3.exe'

[HerrDoktor]

Ok solved, no clue on what cause installation issue on first try.

Second try went good; logging problem is related to a mis-uninstalling of Rockstar social club :D.

Works great, thanks Rev0!

[X-Code]

conversion are Ok, but at the end of installation i need to manually install Social Club cause conversion didn't install automaticly and also copy profiles folder to my documents\Rockstar Games\Social Club

how to fix these problem ?

sorry for bad eng.

sorry for bad eng.

Social Club installation was added to setup.ini, so it should've installed it right after the game... Check your social club setup and also it's place.

About the copy-paste thing..

Everytime you install social club, the values it'll add to reg key and documents are changing. Because of that, yes, you have to copy them manually, because there's no way to predict in what name it'll create folders and reg keys.

Hi Chaps....

After doing initial install, is it then possible to update like this:

* v1.0 = v1.0.0.17
* v1.1 = v1.0.0.22 = Update #1
* v1.2 = v1.0.0.28 = Update #2
* v1.3 = v1.0.0.29 = Update #3
* v1.4 = v1.0.0.47 = Update #4
* v1.5 = v1.0.0.49 = Update #5
* v1.6 = v1.0.0.57 = Update #6
* v1.7 = v1.0.0.78 = Update #7

Before going ahead and doing the conversion, or is there anything I need to do before the conversion. I am just asking because it could be a wasting a lot of time if I don't get it right in the first place.

It would be nice to have all updates in place before conversion to save time later on.
Many thanks for any replies,

According to senseman's post;

1. Install the game and all updates.
2. Open iss file and add senseman's regkey in registry section
3. Save it and compile (start conversion)

It should be OK.
