Does someone know how to burn a .isz file?

How to burn ISZ file:

Step 1

Install Daemon tools. When you do this, it will restart your Computer.
When it restarts, it will complete the setup.(Be careful however as there is one part towards the end of the install that if you click to accept, will sign you up to annoying adware Simply click decline)

Step 2

Install ISORecorder and ImgBurn (You only need to install imgburn if you dont have a burning program already, that is capable of burning iso's

Step 3

The latest version of daemontools has ISZ support.

So, rightclick on the lighting bolt on your taskbar (daemontools icon)
then goto --> Virtual CD/DVD --> Device 0: (There should only be one) --> Mount Image.
Navigate to your isz image file. This will mount you isz file as a virtual cd. It will appear as if you have inserted the cd.

Step 4

Find the virtual cd in my computer. Right click on it. ISORecorder should have added an option to "Create Image from CD" - click on it. Follow the cd recording wizard.

Step 5

You will now have an iso file, made from your original isz. You simply burn this with imgburn or just about any other CD burner(Nero).

@peterf1999
Thanks for your help and instructions,
your conversion works for me.

I made from Multi7 1xDVD9 to
1xDVD5 English Only; dvd size 3.60GB,
1xDVD5 Eng & Spa; dvd size 4.09GB.

I also edited "Support\localization.ini" file for selecting only avaliable languages.

Put space char for deleted languages in [LOCALES] section,
like this;

Thanks "peterf1999" 100% Working ..
Tested on W7 64bit

Thanks peterf1999, Multi7 working on win XP proSP3 x86

Ok I tested myself :) The answer to my previous question is yes, The installation automatically extract the compressed .big files and replace the dummy ones.
I created the archive selecting from within "data" folder!

I've uploaded a batch script I created for replacing automatically the ".big" files with dummy files after creating the FreeArc archive.
Extract both files "dummy" and "dummy.bat" into Your "data" folder then double click on "dummy.bat", and that's all :)

Create new files with the same names, e.g. in Notepad/Wordpad, leave them empty and save them.

Use those dummy files

I tested peterf1999's guide twice already and it works perfectly! I have even burned the DVD and installed from it!
BE SURE that You have EXACTLY the same version of the game!

The idea of compressing some files and replacing them with dummy files (files with the same name, but empty, zero byte long) is great and trivial at the same time, so if You can't manage to use the msi files downloaded from here You can build Your own 1xDVD5 version very easily:

- Copy all the content of the DVD9 in a temp folder
- compress with whatever software You like(WinRAR, Ace, FreeArch..) the biggest files inside the temp folder(usually .big) in an archive(use best compression ;) ) that You will put apart.
- now delete EACH big file You compressed (that is now inside the archive) and REPLACE each with an empty file HAVING THE SAME NAME OF THE ONE DELETED (You can create a new notepad file, and rename it) .. BE SURE THAT BOTH FILENAME AND EXTENSION MATCH! BE SURE THAT Your Explorer shows the extensions of ALL FILES! This trick cheats the installer that will think it is installing all the files! So You do not need any modded msi file!
- create the DVD(You can create an ISO and then load it with Daemon Tools for testing!) with the same DVD label of the original DVD9, putting inside all the content of the temp folder. You can save the archive with the original big files compressed either in the same DVD, if there is enough space, or in another DVD.
- install the game from the DVD You have just created.
- Now extract the files in the archive REPLACING the dummy files inside subfolders of the installation folder (e.g. c:\program files\EA Sports\FIFA 10\)..

The idea is very simple, and requires very basic computer knowledge, if You do not manage to do it, feel free to ask ..

Regards!

You are welcome :)

Well Nero as far as I remember is always complaining for long file names and so on.. I tried also burning images created with UltraISO with Starburn and it worked always fine ;) ..But with Starburn You can create ISOs very easily.
It exists also in portable version.. so even not needed to be installed.. can stay on a pen card :)
Try before with a rewritable DVD5 :)

Make the iso and then burning Starburn always works perfectly.
I think it is the fault of the too old version of Nero Burning Rom
Before I had a 7:11 with XP installed and I never had problems and now find I had to install the older version 7.5.

Starburn, is a piece of s*** :D

Use IMGBURN, the best free burning software ;)
