1. Install the game. Update game, apply NO-CD if necessary.
2. Download attachment, extract to HD, NOT in Gamefolder.
3. Move _CommonRedist folder from game install directory to last dvd in extracted folder.
4. Run UltraARC_mod, Browse/Select Your installed game, Select the compression method to use (feel free to use it or not) ;)
5. Make iso files with the same name of folders.
6. Test the conversion, before burning ISO.

Enjoy!!! :)

Already tried that and got it to 3xDVD5. trying adding delta now to see if it fits into 2xDVD5.

welll tried to make it 2DVD5 using srep+delta+lzma and no luck. the uncompressed redist folder makes it go up to 4.48GB...
Now blanked some intro videos and trying again to make it fit

^What about change directx with webinstaller? Would it fit?

You could also just leave these files for a small DX setup, only ~6mb

Was going to use it, but don't know if omdj used the /Silent switch for it, if that's the case, it will give a nasty error... Will try with pakrat2k2's idea now...

Have you noticed there is an x64 version of almost every single file you named it here? seems like it will take a lil bit more than 6mb

srep+lzma it finish on 2 DVD 5

DVD 1 4.37
DVD 2 4.35

but if move commonredist to DVD 2 it size 4.48 over on DVD2

maybe 3 DVD5 is better on none compression

welll, finally made it 2DVD5...
- stripped directX like pakrat2k2 said, but keeping x64 version too
- Blanked 343_Intro.bik, Logos.bik and MSGameStudio_Intro.bik ( all of them are game loading intros and logos)
- compressed using srep+delta+lzma
results
DVD1 = 4.37GB
DVD2 = 4.37GB

I know, and I said its something on your end, it runs on Windows10 without setting compatability mode. Make sure all redists are installed.

GOOGLE > Halo Wars: Definitive Edition not running on Windows 10

try reading the results.

Fits perfectly on 2xDVD5 using lzma2 without trimming redists.

Just replaced "uiScrollingCredits.bik" with some dummy 1sek black bik file.

You can do the same with the logos/esrb/etc. Should give you another ~100mb.

I left with 3 DVD's even without any compression, I tried with srep + exe + exe2 + delta + lzma and even without DirectX it still goes over 120MB on a third DVD, it's no use putting high compressions in that game if even the files that are Out of the sound and video folders does not have a satisfactory compression, in my view taking a long time compressing the files does not compensate.

Anyone willing to do a DiskSpanGUI update for this?

Thank you very much in advance.
