WHY U NO DVD5 ?

From current look, you technically can't separate multiplayer and singleplayer files.

The most important size of folders is 16 gb of 'pc' folder and it was created as 'levels' not separated as single or multi content. Sorry guys.

V1.00 - Initial Release
V1.01 - Current Release

-Regkey about install directory has been fixed.

1. Install the game.

2. Download the attachment below. Open it with Unicode Version of INNO Setup Edit Game's Path according to your game's installed location:

Code:

#define ProgramFiles "D:\Program Files (x86)\Rockstar Games\Max Payne 3"

3. Click 'Compile' and order a pizza and drink your beer.

4. Create 6 folders and name them as: MP3_1, MP3_2, MP3_3, MP3_4, MP3_5, MP3_6

5. Move:

Setup1*.bin files, Setup.exe, Setup.ico, Setup.cab, Setup.ini, autorun.inf, Setup.dll to MP3_1
Setup2*.bin files, Setup.ico to MP3_2
Setup3*.bin files, Setup.ico to MP3_3
Setup4*.bin files, Setup.ico to MP3_4
Setup5*.bin files, Setup.ico to MP3_5
Setup6*.bin files, Setup.ico to MP3_6

6. Copy:

Redistributables folder which is located in DVD1 of Max Payne 3 to MP3_6
autorun.inf to MP3_2, MP3_3, MP3_4,MP4_5,MP_6

7. Edit all autorun.inf files except MP3_1 like below:

Code:

[autorun]

icon=Setup.ico

open=0

SIDE NOTES

Conversion is 6DVDs because of it, i strongly recommend to install game with compiled bin files, then burn them to DVDs.

4 DVD9 OPTION

If you want to use DVD9s instead DVD5s, use values below:

SlicesPerDisk=5
DiskSliceSize=1708200000

if the conversion went to 6xDVD5's, then why end at MP3_4 folder in instructions ? Missing couple of folders, or does it only 4xdvd5 ???

I hate innosetup. very dirty.

How come there is no layout.bin editor that will work????

old way = edit layout.bin and repack cab files into 3.9gb

no working tools ?

not since installshield updated. hasnt worked that way since V14 or V15 ??

you can download iscabview.exe and a bunch of other required dll files.

I just downloaded a working iscabview.exe extracted from the latest installshield evaluation version.

Isn't this enough to repack the cab files?

the old layout.bin editor can still edit the layout.bin file

dirty ? use freearc instead for more than 3k files, it will define 'dirty' word very different

The folder "movies" weighs 8.05GB :eek:
All videos are in. bik .. long will it take to recode?
but, will save a lot of space.:D

WTF are you doing with iscabview.exe?:confused:

You need Iscab.exe for game repacking, but Iscab is no longer available from the 2010 version, however iscab v15 still working with that version, unfortunately from version 17 (2011), iscab v15 no longer works because it has been added unicode support.

Max Payne 3 uses v.18.0.329 (2012) of Installshield engine, and so the solution is a custom installer.

If you re-code them or lower quality it can save you from 3-4 GB, which means 1 DVD5.

Even if you lower quality by %75 which is bad, you have to use 5DVD5 becuse you will have approx. 1.6 GB content from DVD6 anyway.

PC folder is precompresable , arc > pcf > srep > arc can make it smaller , 4.8gb become 1.9gb

Can this be repacked to 3DVD9 with inno?

Can u please create Max Payne 3 setup like DiRT Showdown created by yener90
with converter
its easy to repack it with freearc and imgburn :D

Sure, what else do you need ?

Setup has been fixed to V101 version.

And since you're not paying people to create conversion, stop requesting everything. I've spent hours to the theme and testing, and only thing you're saying is requesting something else.

Easy to say, do it yourself.

just wanna ask - which number i should put here to have maximal usage of DVD9:

Code:

DiskSliceSize=1550000000

SlicesPerDisk=3

if i wanna do DVD9 installer ?
