[gatosky1620]

*Splinter Cell: Blacklist - 5DVD5*

Script: yener90 CIU v1.0.0.6
Thanks: Peterf1999 for compression method
Thanks: REVO for File list and registry entries

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Install the game, and the last update v1.01.

2. Download the attached file, decompress wherever you want (not in game folder).

3. Go to game´s directory, move the originals unistall files (example: unins000.dat and unins000.exe) if there, and replace after conversion.

4. Go to game´s directory or retail DVD and move the "Support" folder to "SCBL_1.0\DVD_5" folder

5. Run Compress.bat, type your game's installed diectory and wait for Finished!

6. Make ISO and test before you burn. You can make ISO automatically with ImgBurn if you have installed.

Done.

UPDATE 1.1
-Fix registry entries

[pakrat2k2]

File uploaded to this forum, will have moved so not on 3rd party site.

nice job on the conversion, btw :cool:

[haazmaaz]

gatosky1620, can u give info about compression time and installation time ?

[prudislav]

does it have proper regentries for upcoming patches? (i think they were in some uninstall secion in registry)

[Newbie]

@haazmaaz

It all depends how strong your PC is.

@prudislav

I don't know....

But even if it doesn't have, I'm sure they will be included in "conversion update"...

You shouldn't worry already about it.

@gatosky1620

Great work, it looks really nice.

[rated01]

is there any way to change compression to none?

[Newbie]

I think you can change it.

Right click on compress.bat - Edit - and now instead of this part

-msrep+lzma:a1:mfbt4:d256m:fb128:mc1000:lc8

put -m0, as I can see that is for No compression.....so in .bat file it should be:

arc a -ep1 -r -w.\ -m0 [email protected] -dp"%choice1%" .\DVD_1\%arc%
And do that for all lines.....

Try, it should be pretty fast....

If he properly took the regkey from my conversion, yes it will support upcoming updates. As alternative you can burn the V1.01 game and put new updates in 5th dvd.

I've tryed to install the update 1.01 from Ubisoft at your game conversion and it's says that the game was not found.
No matter what reg entries will you use, for Ubisoft games you need to apply the patch/updates before doing the conversion. So, in order to burn the game to DVD's, you need to wait 2-3 months or more for all the updates of the game.

And is there a specific reason not to report here ? If you have such a problem, why didnt you report this in the thread ?

[mrmustatza1]

I'm just saying man. I am not judgeing you or something like that... I have a big respect for all of your work @fileforums.
I didnt report on that thread because I'm sure you know that about Ushit games. I posted here because I saw you and prudislav talking about upcoming updates for the game.

Well if there's a problem with the conversion, i'd like to fix it. If you could've told me in V1.00, i would've fixed it by now

[Newbie]

@mrmustatza1

".....for Ubisoft games you need to apply the patch/updates before doing the conversion...."

Nope, not true.

I'm doing it this way.

Don't create uninstall key with inno.....

...but include uninstall regitsry keys of the "original" games.

Tested with two programs and it works fine - Inno and Setup Factory....

Cheers

The problem is that the Ubisoft "update software" doesnt detect games installed by yenner's conversion. You can test what I am saying by trying to update these games (after you installed them using yenner's conversion): Far Cry 3, AC Collection, Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Future Soldier, Splinter Cell Blacklist.

@Newbie
I'll try your theory and report back.

I'll request something from you, install the game with my conversion. Try to install V1.01 update on it, it should say game is already updated to v1.01

If it says game not found, i'm gonna give you a setup.exe to check which has more regs in it

[prudislav]

its just missing registry entry - it checks somewhere in unistall section of registry

Done.

PS I've installed your second conversion. If i'm not wrong, the v120 is the third one. I will try with v120 and report back.

[REV0]

Done.

Ok, check my thread and download V1.20 setup, it's gonna be PITA but i'll request you to reinstall the game with new setup

[pakrat2k2]

already testing V1.20 but in middle of compressing gamefiles, so will be at least 1-2 hrs before report back.

You're compressing first time right pakrat ? Because compressing is not necessary it's only setup.exe update

[pakrat2k2]

yes, had d/l files extracted & thought had started compression last night, but was an error in copy/paste & it wouldn't accept original folder name, so had to remove 'special' codes from folder name to get it to compress files... about 40% complete now.

Roger, waiting your input

[mrmustatza1]

Reinstalled using v1.20 and still the same message: "The setup has detected no version..."

Try one more time the latest one in my thread.. I tested myself and it works properly

[mikey26]

hi revo i will have a crack at it i am fairly good at doing the regs for crappysoft titles i will give u feedback asap.

[rated01]

how i change it to 5dvd to 7 or 6dvd conversion?

[persiastore]

Is it possible to convert without change the setup?
Look like Assassin's Creed III

[mrmustatza1]

Now it's ok. :)

[REV0]

Now it's ok. :)

Oh thank god....

Geezzz what a mess it was

[pakrat2k2]

Oh thank god....

Geezzz what a mess it was

still is somewhat.. IF you install base game without update, it reports game is at 1.01.00 already & you cant install update 1. ( 120HF set )

I think 2 versions need to be there, 1 for base game-NO updates, and other for game that is at 1.01.

Vanilla version causes problems, lots of performance issues, besides NO-CD works with both version, it's better to burn updated game IMHO

[mrmustatza1]

Yeah. I'm glad that you solve it.

// I'm looking forward for it :cool:
/// There's a lot if time till 20th november.

[REV0]

Yeah. I'm glad that you solve it.

Yeah, see you in Division... I better prepare the conversion right now JFC

Mother of god... I forgot fucking Watchdogs...

ERROR: can't allocate memory required for (de)compression in lzma:133mb:normal:b t4:128:mc1000:lc8, use -lc/-ld to limit memory usage...

is there any solution?

[Newbie]

@Oldguard1990

Did you change anything since that looks weird.

Since I see this in .bat file:

-msrep+lzma:a1:mfbt4:d256m:fb128:mc1000:lc8
And it seems it can be fixed if you change above to:
-msrep+lzma:a1:mfbt4:d158m:fb128:mc1000:lc8

your pc's ram not enough, it tells you how to fix it.
use -lc/-ld to limit memory usage...

nothing happens

[Newbie]

@pakrat2k2

What does he need to do.

In case I got the same error once in the future.

Edit arc.ini or....and if yes, how it should look like e.g.

packcmd = srep {options} -m3f -l512 -c256 -a4 -lc/-ld $$arcdatafile$$.tmp $$arcpackedfile$$.tmp

or...

Thanks

[Oldguard1990]

@newbie
then as it should be?
You can send a screenshot file please so that we solve the problem

[Newbie]

@Oldguard1990

I can't help you.

As you can see I have the same question for pakrat2k2.

I think that you need to edit arc.ini file so it should look like this:
[External compressor:srep]
;options = l%d (minimal match length, default=512)
header = 0
packcmd = srep {options} -m3f -l512 -c256 -a4 -lc $$arcdatafile$$.tmp $$arcpackedfile$$.tmp
unpackcmd = srep -d -s $$arcpackedfile$$.tmp $$arcdatafile$$.tmp

[External compressor:precomp]
header = 0
packcmd = precomp -intense0 -c- {options} -o$$arcpackedfile$$.tmp $$arcdatafile$$.tmp
unpackcmd = precomp -o$$arcdatafile$$.tmp -r $$arcpackedfile$$.tmp

But I'm not sure, you can test it if you want.

Here you can read more about it:
http://freearc.org/FreeArc040-eng.htm

Search for Use of memory.

Hope it helps.

[pakrat2k2]

not in arc.ini but commandline.


Use of memory

If 75 % from the general(common) volume of physical memory are not enough for the chosen algorithm of compression the program automatically reduces the size of the dictionary/í½«¬á/... So that to go in in this volume of memory. This restriction can be removed(taken off) by means of an option–lc–or to establish(install) own, for example–lc128mb. Also it is possible to establish(install) restriction on volume of memory which is required for unpacking created archive, by means of an option–ld. The size of memory can be set and in percentage of the general(common) volume of the RAM, for example–lc25 % (adjustment(option) by default:–lc75 %–ld75 %; instead of % it is possible to use the letter p, for example–lc25p). At unpacking the option–ld also operates volume of used memory, but opportunities of this management are insignificant – it(she) can use only preservation of intermediate data in files on a disk if the algorithm allows it.
The option–md establishes(installs) the size of the block (for block algorithms (http://www.haskell.org/bz/FreeArc040-rus2.htm#_Блочные_алгоритмы_1)) or the dictionary (for LZMA).
If the general(common) volume of data packed into one solid-block is less than size of the block/dictionary the size of the block/dictionary for this solid-block in appropriate way decreases. Therefore real consumption of memory can appear less displayed. The algorithms of compression really used in each created solid-block, and to memory it is possible to display their requirements an option–di + $.
The program uses the buffer of anticipatory reading for acceleration of compression of small files. By default the program tries to allocate for it(him) 16 mb or the size of the block of data at use of block algorithms (http://www.haskell.org/bz/FreeArc040-rus2.htm#_Блочные_алгоритмы_1) – looking that more. If necessary this size automatically decreases so that together with the memory necessary for algorithm of packing, it(he) did not exceed 50 % from volume of the RAM of a computer – down to use only 1 Mb. You can establish(install) the size of this buffer, for example - cache=100mb or - cache=40 %. The option - cache-establishes(installs) minimally possible(probable) size of a cache (equal 64 kb).
FreeArc tries to use resources of a computer on a maximum. We shall consider(examine), for example, work by different machines(cars) of a method–m5, 384 Mb of memory using totally. By the machine(car) of all about 256 Mb of the RAM the algorithm will be broken on two parts using on 192 Mb, and these parts will be executed consistently, and data between them are transferred(transmitted) through an intermediate file. By the machine(car) about 512 Mb of the RAM both parts of algorithm will be carried out in parallel, and data between them to be transferred(transmitted) through memory. At last, by the machine(car) with 1Гб the RAM besides it(this) will be allocated 64 Mb for the buffer of anticipatory reading. Thus, results of compression by all machines(cars) will be identical, but the more to memory is accessible, the all will be faster all over J.

If you need to limit in addition volume of the memory used for packing or unpacking add options–lc/–ld. For example:–mx–lc1gb–ld256mb sets the maximal internal compression limited 1 gb of memory at packing and 256 Mb at unpacking.

so try above limits.. change lc8 to -lc1gb -ld256mb ( otherwise the lc8 on its own will use 75% of system memory ( total memory in system )

that's why its so important to NOT do anything else when running the compression for these conversions. Turn off any background programs / processes not essential for pc to run. Do it at night when going to bed & should be finished when you get up in am.

[Oldguard1990]

then what I understood is that you have more than 2 GB of RAM pa do these conversions? and what about the resources media pc? :(

[mikey26]

mate check ur setup.ini....i think u spelled ubisoft wrg (ubisfof)

[el_piskui_gulachat]

as would the script, no compression

[zyo]

this compatible with 1.0.2?
