Yeah. Me too.. do we need older versions of inno setup?

no the problem is the [Languages] section of the InstallerScript.iss

CHANGE MessagesFile: Languages to MessagesFile: .\Languages then the compiler will NOT look to your default INNO Unicode languages folder which DOES NOT have all the languages listed in the script, BUT the Language folder WITH the script DOES have them.

Then you wont get as many error messages when compiling the script.

you can use 7-zip / winrar, whatever.. just make the archive with default name then rename it, move back into folder with setup.exe, ini, ico etc.

1.4 doesnt work anymore
tried in unicode of latest innosetup.
Got a bunch of language warning and warning line then finished in 5 seconds

Aha I see, you commented out the first line by mistake.

Still getting the same error like marinez. tried changing "MessagesFile: .\Languages" value and its still the same.

Just few seconds and it stops.

ignore those language errors!
its because some text not translated to every language.
it also not required in the setup ;).

-> delete just the sign ';' in front of and change "F:\New folder" to your game folder.
then it should work fine.

for me looks like this:

guys, i just compiled the 14 version, the one i uploaded to here, and it compiled without errors.

You will edit your installed game location that's all, do not touch nor play with conversion.

So, if you'll excuse me i'm going to enjoy with my Boxed Collector Edition of ME3.

i did it..... but still error same leslietwk 's post. it error about language. how to ignore those language errors...

Hah! Finally started! 1:20 to go. Thanks for the help.

that little ; sign effects the whole thing.

Thanks yener90! You made me day!

marinez: I added a \ at the end of folder name.

"F:\Program Files (x86)\EA Games\Mass Effect 3"

to

"F:\Program Files (x86)\EA Games\Mass Effect 3\"

:D

But shouldn't make a difference in unicode right..?

no difference :D

marinez
ignore them XD
compiler tells you that some lines are not in in some language and therefore uses the english texts. thats all, not an error.

marinez

I am guessing your path to the installed folder is not correct.

i just change

D:\ME3\Mass Effect 3

to

D:\ME3\Mass Effect 3\

and still got same error...

Thank you everyone for help.

conversion complete but game cant install from mf31...it show that cannot find specified path

i got this error when i try to install:

EDIT:
fix now, i put setup.cab; setup.exe; setup.ico; setup.ini (ME3_V14_REVO.rar) and now work fine.....sorry

Hey, what are the attached files I have to put on the first DVD?
Because I think I have some files that are of more.
The autorun.ini does not automatically open the first DVD,
this is the REVO code:

[autorun]
OPEN = 0
ICON = Setup.ico

Maybe I should be specifically targeted to some other file?

Thx, bye. Sorry for my English. :D

I have a 32bit of windows 7 and the installer attempts to install 64bit of libs which results an error page. Is there anyway to make it install the proper version based?

Edit the PATH correctly to where you have game installed, FIRST line in ISS script, REMOVE the ; from front of line...
#define ProgramFiles "F:\New folder\"

OPEN=Setup.exe

Look at the bottom of Setup.ini under [LauncherSettings]
anything that relates to X64version = 0 X86=1

Thx pakrat2k2, it works OK. Now I have another problem:mad:
with the installation menu shows me symbols instead of
letters. Any ideas? I hope not to annoy, the language
of the installer is in Spanish. Thx. :)

http://img827.imageshack.us/img827/2040/menuerror.jpg

anyway to detect and install the correct version automatically?

Emparador,

Dont play with language.iss. Now, redownload the delete older one open install iss with UNICODE OF INNO SETUP and edit installed location of the game

Zyo,

Even you got errors with x64 setup will complege without problems. In x64 based system both versions are installed. Dont mind errors you have, like you shouldnt mind language errors durin inno compile.....

To CE Edition users, OST has additional700 mb in bonus folder, because of tha you may see additional bin files for DVD4

And ill edit autorun thing to be more specific, it seems there are people who dont know open=0 applies for dvds except 1.

hello, please add these values ​​to the inno script. these serve to make the voices work according to the language of installation.
I think the values ​​are correct, but if you can not modify them and check them
sorry for my bad English.

Hi how to create these files

Install-1a, 1b, 1c bin files to ME3_1
Install-2a, 2b, 2c bin files to ME3_2
Install-3a, 3b, 3c bin files to ME3_3 if exist
Install-4a, 4b, 4c files to ME3_4 if exist

lipchak, easy do it yourself, replace the lines you have in your post under the [REGISTRY] section if the InstallerScript.iss file. Then test to see if it creates the correct reg entry for your language choice.

edit the InstallerScript.iss, change first line to where you installed the game.
The \" MUST BE THERE. save the file, then compile it. This will then create the Install-* files, and you move them according to directions in first post.

Is there a way to compress it to 2DVD5? I have english version, and it's 10.5 gb, when i compress it than it's 9.78, so it's not a very good compression :(

2 ways to do it.

1. edit iss script & change your install game path ( line #1 )
2. dont touch ISS script, but use external compression ( files listed in setup.ini ), BUT
you have to play around with archives so they fit onto 3xdvd5.. Biogames\movies contain Bik files @ 3.19GB they dont compress at all. CookedPCConsole folder contains 6.51GB of data you will need to compress that with freearc into smaller 4GB chunks.

So NO real way to get it to fit onto 2xdvd5, smallest MAY be 3xdvd5 but depends on which version you have of the game. Its all about the archives & how you compress them wether you can get it all to fit on 2xdvd5 or 3xdvd5

OMG,it fits also on one dvd5, instead you wasted 3 dvds :eek::D

LOL HOW??? plz can you make some conversion that fits on 2xDVD5 without resampling videos?

The error itself seems to be related to special characters. What are the lines I have to modicar within install.iss?

Thx, bye.:)

my god dont you people read ??? step #1 tells you what to change. and which version of inno you need to be using. DONT USE ANSI version of inno for this script.

Stop playing the conversion, it works fine tested more than ten times i told you to edit installation location of the games you will edit this line with unicode of inno setup, end of story.

Game has option to change language and subtitle option in options menu no additional regkeys required.

And i dont like resampled low quality cutscenes so this conversion is 4 dvd and cutscenes dont deserve to be low quality, trust me. Try harder tou can fit it into one floppy if youre interested.

Pakrat, no they dont read dude.

I do not know how to start a feed begun compress files,Maybe a tutorial

I added a warning to the beginning of the guide about using the proper version of Inno Setup. I suggest that you guys start all conversions with a list repeating of the most important details, the obstacles over which most people may trip - or already showed to often trip.

Worked perfectly in Win7 64Bit with 3xDVD5. I used CI 7.2.5. Thanks Revo!

My final size:
DVD1: 4,35GB
DVD2: 4,30GB
DVD3: 4,03GB (DLC included)

After the conversion is finished, I still don't know which files ( other than bin files of course) must be moved to "ME3_1" folder?
If I launch install.exe i get this message "Setup couldn't find necessary files".
Can anybody help? Thanks.

ME3_1: Autorun.inf; Install.exe; Install1a.bin,1b,1c; Setup.cab; Setup.exe; Setup.ico; Setup.ini

ME3_2: Autorun.inf; Install2a.bin,2b,2c; Setup.ico

ME3_3: Redist folder; Autorun.inf; Install3a.bin,3b,3c; Setup.ico

Make ISO's and test! :)

Thanks man for the help! Going to try that!!! :)

Everything works perfectly, great job done REV0 and Yener 90.

thank you

is there somewhere converter for Mass Effect 1 and 2?
