At the very first biggest greetz fly to yener90 'coz this conversion uses his CI source.

UPDATE: I'm sorry for wasting your time on converting biks via previous
bik_conversion_v.2.rar.
Proper
bik_conversion_v.3.rar greatly improves video quality and (paradoxically) straightly reduces conversion time from ~16 to ~8.5 hour on
[email protected]
I strongly recommend bik converson via
bik_conversion_v.3.rar to gain near-original quality.
You can update the game to 1.03 and it still fits on DVD5
1. Install the game and
RADTools
2. Download
bik_conversion_v.3.rar and extract to
{game_folder}\data\videos folder.
Note: See Post #36 for file.
3. Go to
{game_folder}\data\videos and run
1#resample.rlst
You can pause it and resume later.To do this click
'STOP' button in
RAD Batch Editor. Let
Bink Video Compressor finish actually converted file. Click
'SAVE AS...' button in
RAD Batch Editor and save as
1#resample.rlst. Next time you run them, it'll start from next file.
If you must abort conversion immediately there is 2nd method. Click
'STOP' button on
RAD Batch Editor and it'll generate
"# Error returned:" message at the beginning of line with actually converted file. Delete
"# Error returned:" text, click
'SAVE AS...' button and save as
1#resample.rlst. Now click
'CANCEL' button on
Bink Video Compressor and answer
'NO' if asking about keeping partially converted file. You can run it later and it starts conversion from last converted file.
4. Run
2#audio_###.rlst (where
### is your preferred lang for cutscenes).
5. Run
3#copy_not_resampled.bat.
6. Download
AW_DVD5_v.3.rar and extract to
TEMP folder.
Note: See Post #36 for file.
7. Go to
{game_folder} and move
to
8. Go to
{game_folder}\data, delete unwanted lang files (remember to leave i.e. english if your language isn't spoken one):
Code:
ep999-000-##.bin
ep999-000-##.rmdp
9. Go to
{game_folder}\data, run FreeArc and compress:
Code:
Config
*.bin
*.rmdp
Code:
archive name: data1.cab
compression: -mx -ld800
make EXE: not checked
10. Go to
{game_folder}\data\videos\converted, run FreeArc and compress its content
Code:
archive name: data2.cab
compression: -m0*
make EXE: not checked
* If you want to gain some extra space (i.e. for soundtrack from 1.02 update) use -mx -ld800 compression instead
11. Go to
{game_folder}, run FreeArc and compress its content (without
data folder)
Code:
archive name: data3.cab
compression: -mx -ld800
make EXE: not checked
