INSTRUCTIONS:
--------------------------------------------------
1. Install Batman Arkham Origins, apply all possible patches up to v20131204 (tested).

Code:

Tip:

If you made this conversion before releasing unofficial patch 2 (~270MB) and want to use it... you can't :D

Please download my version of patch 2 instead (BTW it's 3 times smaller).

It's important to apply update v20131106 with no-cd before applying this one 

After that you have game updated to v20131125



Of course all official patches works great with this conversion

2. Download BAO_2xDVD5_or_3xDVD5.rar and extract it to any {TEMP} (NOT in {game_folder}). Be sure to have at least 13GB of free space on the drive.
Note: See Post #87 for file.

FIX: Download data3_preprocess_PROPER.rar and extract to {TEMP}\files to avoid missing files in some cases. Thx for The-revenge for informing about that.
Note: See Post #87 for file.

3. Go to {TEMP}, run compress (SP only).bat or compress (SP + MP).bat:
- choose your game folder,
- choose preferred language for audio (ingame & cutscenes),
- choose to shut down your PC after conversion or not (yes, you can go sleep now :D )

4. Make iso/burn content of BAO_# folders with any label

UPDATES:
--------------------------------------------------
31.01.2014: uploaded data3_preprocess_PROPER.rar to avoid missing files in some cases (thx The-revenge for info)

13.02.2014: uploaded BAO_2xDVD5_or_3xDVD5_v2.rar (after 931 downloads) with resized buttons to avoid text cutting in Italian (thx tanatos for info)

Nice flash animation. Very impressive! :D

SP-2DVD5 work with Update 1, 2, 3.
Test on win7 x64. Thx!

Waaaaay better then the original Setup. Thanks a lot.

very beautiful. Thanks.

how to do this with no compression, thx

1. Change method parameters in bat file to 0 for all archives.
2. Rearrange files in lst files.
3. Delete data3_preprocess.bat

I'm getting an error when compiling data2.cab. Cannot find these 3 files:

NewGotham_C4_Audio.upk
NewGotham_C4_FX.upk
NewGotham_C4_Static.upk

I have an original and it works 100% and always installs this way.

These are files added in update 3

Thanks alot BAMsE. Will and let you know how it's going.

Had a feeling i should have ran the last update. Oh well live and learn

Tested under windows 7x64 spanish sp only.

Flawless procedure, incredible artwork btw!

Thanks indeed and congrats for this high quality job ;)

A big update is out from Steam. 3.1GB. Only for bug fixes :eek:
Over 8.5GB of game files(~5GB SP/~3GB MP) said.

Ok i've updated my game and retested the conversion, but i've noticed that the following folder increases in size from 8gb to 11gb. Is this normal.

D:\Batman Arkham Origins\SinglePlayer\BMGame\CookedPCConsole

Almost every file in this folder gets modified. The game does start and plays, just wanted to know if anyone else picked up on this.

Fox22743 yes it's normal and necessary to fit the game on 2 DVDs

Thanks BAMsE,

Just to confirm:

1) My folder from original installation with all updates = 8gb.
2) After compression but before uninstalling original game, almost all files change in size, folder now = 11gb.
3) Installation with your version is exactly the same as #2 above (i.e. 11gb)

Did you somehow decompress original game files, so that you could recompress in your conversion?

I'll post some pics later just to show you what i mean.

EDIT:
Ok i just read through your .bat & .lst files, and i saw that you do decompress all those files and then repack. It's funny how the game still works with the file sizes changed. On older games it used to give a filesize mismatch error if anything changed.

Well great work as always BAMsE, wish i had even half your talent. I want to do a conversion on GTA IV + Episodes from Liberty City and try to bring it down to 4 dvd's total, and not each.
I know if i knew how to use precomp like peter and how to compress like you, then it would be possible.
