In fact, I am pretty sure I can trim the size down even more. I already removed three obsolete biks unused by the game at all -- AdvCombat ones that are from the XBOX360 version (they show the power wheel) and I noticed that some DLCs duplicate biks that are already in the base game. On the next playthrough, I'll move the culprits elsewhere and see if it causes any bugs. If not -- another 150 MB down the drain.

I dont remember that Advcombat is exist for PC exc. or i do remember wrong ? It could be correct tho, i also saw PS3 videos on X-COM lol.

have a list of files that you DONT want to touch as well as link for that editor?

First of all, AFC's and PCC's. It is a nonsense to make a full list, but remember this key:

LANGUAGE-relevant AFC's and PCC's have _INT in filename for English version. If you want English-only, delete any and all that have identical names to the English ones but different language suffix (like _DEU for example). Do NOT remove any files that have no language suffix!

As for a tool to edit SFAR files, use this:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/me3e...d?source=files

One word of warning though: DO NOT EDIT THE MULTIPLAYER DLCS! (DLC_CON_MP#) I do not know how far does the EA protection go, but they stated that modifying files relevant for multiplayer might ban you from MP. SFAR files MAY be investigated by checksum so don't remove any language files from these four. You'd save 100-150 MB MAX, so it's not worth it.

Single-player DLCs are quite another matter. I decreased Leviathan's size for about 500 MB.... :D

EDIT:

@REV0:

AdvCombat are the biks with tutorials on how the Mass Effect 2 combat system is to be used for maximum efficiency. There are six files in total for the PC version:

- AdvCombat1.bik
- AdvCombat2.bik
- AdvCombat3.bik
- AdvCombat1_PC.bik
- AdvCombat2_PC.bik
- AdvCombat3_PC.bik

As they demonstrate something the XBOXers call the Power Wheel, it is obvious that only one version is used. The ones without the _PC suffix demonstrate the X360 ui and therefore are unused ingame.

Hi everybody!!!:)
Have installed the whole 3 games with their DLC's, and here is the final size of each one:

13300 MB for ME1 (without any modification)
20300 MB for ME2 (without any modification)
16400 MB for ME3 (without any modification) "Omega DLC not yet released."

Size of the 3 games together -> 50,1 Go

ME2 - 20 GB? How *many* languages are there?! :D

Only French!
It's due to the number of dlc's.:D

In that case you didn't remove languages from DLCs (they install in ALL languages always).

You a right!

Want me to make update with Launch Trailer of Trilogy ?

Otherwise i'll go with this:

Why not?
It will look nice!

I'd suggest you to keep a version without the video nonetheless, as video will be with just one language version. And Mass Effect games come with a variety of languages.

Done, i uploaded it separately check the first post.

Cheers.

PS: Expect another conversion with 'Trilogy' logos, instead of Collection, i'll do it once i obtain the box

Hi REVO!;)
Final result of conversion of "Mass Effect Collection":
Compression=lzma2/ultra64:D
Size=31,9 Go

Ultra ? Wow, how many hours did you leave computer open LOL
