:confused: The external compression (filter mode) use arc.exe,srep,precomp,arc.ini.

The command lines are listed in compress.bat file.

Hi Peter! Thanks for this great (and unexpected) conversion!

One tiny question, do you know which files should I keep in order to play with english voices + spanish texts/subs? I tried multi2 conversion but it doesní fit for a few mb (cutting off entire support folder). I am playing it like that atm, executing the game with spanish command line and selecting "english voices" from the in game options menu.

Kind Regards as always, and Buon Capodanno!!! :D

Please stop asking questions about other conversions in the wrong Threads!
Its confusing and disrespectful hijacking other topics with your own irrelevant questions!!

Hello Peter thank you very much for this FC3 installer, AWESOME.
I'm a total newbie. I just wanted to ask a few quick questions; here goes.

Firstly: The 15 files you said to remove from the directory will not cause any problems to play the game, will it?

Secondly: I want the game to play English and subtitled (Closed Captioned) in English.
Removing those mentioned files will not cause me to lose my native English language?

Thirdly: Can I use the files posted to compress any other games?

Now I know the compress.bat file will need to be edited and also the autorun.inf file.

Also the FC3 sub folder where the Autorun.exe, autorun.ini and the Setup.exe needs to be changed.

Last but not least: How do I make an Autorun.exe and a Setup.exe?

Thanking you in advance for your superior and awesome work.

Regards,
Errol

Errol 31-12-2012 21:17

Hi Peter I did everything as you said...Downloaded your files and started the compress.bat file. Everything compressed perfectly...Then I made an ISO image and mounted it on my virtual drive to install FC3.

Just about a minute or so into the installation I got this two error (look at pictures below) so I clicked OK and OK...continued to install everything went fine after that, then finished installation.

Then I started the game everything works perfectly.

My only problem is the two errors I picked up in the early stage of the installation. Can you help me to fix it?

P.S. Forgot to say that just as I started to install it asked me to install xvideo decoder!!! Why?

BTW: HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU AND ALL MEMBERS.

error message maybe because you missed step #5..

5) Copy from DVD9 to 'FC3_1xDVD5\FC3' folder :
'Support' folder (except dotNetFramework folder)

check your ISO & make sure the Support folder is there!

If you mean of using precomp.exe,srep.exe,arc.exe, the answer is yes.

You need Inno Setup installer and knowledge of Pascal (programming language)

Thank you Peter for the helpful answers.

I do have a small amount of knowledge using Inno Setup via ISTool or Inno Script Studio.

But as far as "Pascal (programming language)" thats out of my league.

However, if you know much about ISTool or Inno Script Studio GUI can you just tell me how to...There is a tab called Disk Spanning on the Setup Option and I'd like to know what I can add or do on that tab to make separate Bin files just like what you scripted in your compress.bat file?

pakrat2k2 07-01-2013 15:14

start up INNO ( ansi / unicode ) version on its own, then click on help the documentation for diskspanning is there.

vasu001 10-01-2013 09:17

hey peterf1999! just a little question....

what is multicommon folder for anyway,is it needed for multiplayer so that i can delete it,also which files should i delete to remove multiplayer as well ?........

kvernoso 14-01-2013 10:41

Great Job, Peter! Works perfectly!

My preferred language is pt-br and the game is in english. Problem solved: I added "-language portuguese" after the "path_instalation\farcry3.exe" in properties of shortcut. All menus, subs and tips are in pt-br and the voice is in english!

thanks man!

Does this conversion work with the 1.05 update?

sarmadi 06-07-2013 07:25

"WARNING: Freearc returns an error in archive Data2.bin
Do you wish to retry Y/N"
What's that mean this error?

pakrat2k2 06-07-2013 07:48

just that, some error happened. re-run the compress.bat if you didnt retry to create the second bin file. Just make sure nothing else is running in background.

lethanhsoft1 14-07-2013 04:18

Error. Please help!

Same error, can you help me? Thanks. I think file Data2.lst is missing :(

pakrat2k2 14-07-2013 09:47

follow the instructions properly.

if you edit compress.bat & you'll see that there is supposed to be only 1 file. there is no data2.lst file.

you missed a step somewhere.

hibrido lirico 23-07-2013 18:42

Did you notice that when you delete fc3_main_vistas.dat and fc3_main_vistas.fat, the islands become invisible in the distance?

kokousic 08-08-2013 23:51

Is there any way to increase/enhance the compression level?

robbos21 24-03-2014 05:39

No does not fit dvd5 as stated as register 4,76gb on disc so waste time doing this anyway.

Data 1.bin reads 940,910 kb (918mb)
Data 2.bin reads 3,987,615 kb (3.80gb

And that is with and without the redist folder as well !!!!!!

and reads 400mb overload of files just the same as the copy i have is 4.76gb as well !!

pakrat2k2 24-03-2014 14:59

did you follow ALL the steps properly ( especially step 5 ( removing those files ) ?

yes all files were removed :(

pakrat2k2 24-03-2014 17:49

game is at version 1.04 & haven't updated past that ( don't know if this conversion
supports anything past that, or if any more updates after that either ?? )
