No need to worry houcine80, problem is yet again on robbos21's end.
Conversion finished perfectly.
DVD1(HDOK_1) - 4.37GB
DVD2(HDOK_2) - 2.57GB

The ONLY thing that could be changed is in Ultraarc.ini
ThresholdPercent=5 changed the 5 to 30 ( just creates less files, still output same sizes )

robbos21, check freespace on HD & turn off AV while doing conversion. Completed without ANY issues W7X64 here.

I have 5.5 tb space so not a problem do these and don't use any AV either.
It finally worked after few times reset system and lot data files each dvd too but fine anyway ;):)

to which exe ... the shorcut points to???
Expected it wil be just DesertsOfKharak64.exe in root as its on steam , but seems like its not as it doesn't even create the shortcut

does NOT even create shortcut ( steam version or otherwise )

[Executable1]
Name=Homeworld Deserts of Kharak (x86)
Exe=DesertsOfKharak32.exe
ExePath=Win32
Parameter=
Icon=Setup.ico
GDFBinary=

[Executable2]
Name=Homeworld Deserts of Kharak (x64)
Exe=DesertsOfKharak64.exe
ExePath=Win64
Parameter=
Icon=Setup.ico
GDFBinary=

Needs to be corrected as new content out now as well.
Which has increased game size to 15400 now.

could you make the alternative version with just 64bit as root
aka:
Exe=DesertsOfKharak64.exe
ExePath=

houcine80
02-05-2016, 07:29
What will the exact path

Exe=DesertsOfKharak64.exe
ExePath=
OR
Exe=DesertsOfKharak64.exe
ExePath=Win64
??????????????

empty ExePath=

means the file is in root folder of the game., for the STEAM version of the game.

The non-steam version of the game has the path I specified.

yep steam downloads the Win64 or Win32 version depending on your system .... nonsteam version for some reason includes both which kinda doubles the game size .... same goes for games like Hard West, Final Fantasy IX and ...others

for the installer to actually use the {app} folder rather then the {appdata}\.... folder add this to the setup.ini ( doesn't matter if it matches or not, just need to be there )


[ExtractSettings]
FreeArcFile1=Data1.cab;DestDir:{app};Disk:1;
FreeArcFile2=Data2.cab;DestDir:{app};Disk:1;
FreeArcFile3=Data3.cab;DestDir:{app};Disk:2;
FreeArcFile4=Data4.cab;DestDir:{app};Disk:2;
FreeArcFile5=Data5.cab;DestDir:{app};Disk:3;
FreeArcFile6=Data6.cab;DestDir:{app};Disk:3;
FreeArcFile7=Data7.cab;DestDir:{app};Disk:4;
FreeArcFile8=Data8.cab;DestDir:{app};Disk:4;
FreeArcFile9=Data9.cab;DestDir:{app};Disk:5;
FreeArcFile10=Data10.cab;DestDir:{app};Disk:5;
FreeArcFile11=Data11.cab;DestDir:{app};Disk:6;
FreeArcFile12=Data12.cab;DestDir:{app};Disk:6;


Tested on Wolfenstein - The New Order which is 9xdvd5 it used the {app} folder for merging the files.

This only applies for Ultraarc Versions.

ok finally got to try on current steam version , using the "x64 only" setupfix... still doesnt create shortcut

- exe should be "DesertsOfKharak64.exe" in root (+ maybe \TechnicalManual\DoK_Manual.exe for Expedition guide DLC)
- Size is 8.5GB
