Cool Prey (4DVD5)

CIUv2 by: Yener90.
Contributors in the modification and improvement of the script: BAMsE, Razor12911, Simorq & KaktoR (CIU2038b 2017 Special Edition)
UltraARC by: Razor12911.
Modified by: Simorq (UltraARC Reflate Edition 2700)

1. Install the game. Update game, apply NO-CD if necessary.
2. Download attachment, extract to HD, NOT in Gamefolder.
3. Move _CommonRedist folder from game install directory to last dvd in extracted folder.
Code:
[Launch1]
------------------------------------------------------- 
Name=DirectX
32Exe={src}\_CommonRedist\DirectX\Jun2010\DXSETUP.exe
Argument=/silent
BeforeInstall=0

[Launch2]
------------------------------------------------------- 
Name=Visual C++ 2012
32Exe={src}\_CommonRedist\vcredist\2012\vcredist_x86.exe
64Exe={src}\_CommonRedist\vcredist\2012\vcredist_x64.exe
Argument=/q /norestart
BeforeInstall=0
4. Run UltraARC_mod, Browse/Select Your installed game, Select the compression method to use (feel free to use it or not)
5. Make iso files with the same name of folders.
6. Test the conversion, before burning ISO.

Enjoy!!!

srep+lzma: threshold 10 result 5DVDs and the last DVD with Redist is 600MB

will try Method=pZLib+lzma
there's a "German_anim.pak" file in "Localization" folder. its size is 180mb and i think it would be no problem to delete it

by the way, is it ok to use lzma with pZlib or I should use lzma2?

It is ok.

You can use zlib checker from here http://fileforums.com/showthread.php?t=97657 to check if a game using zlib streams.

lzma2 is faster but in my tests the compression ratio is a bit lower than lzma.

Oh, and you should use srep aswell. zlib is only a precompressor.

I used pZLib+srep+lzma and also deleted the german language from localization folder (180mb) and "Credits.bk2" from videos (538mb) and I have 4 DVDs and the last DVD is 4.2GB. so pzlib has not better result. if I haven't deleted those files still i had 5 DVDs.

but when I tried to install the games I got isdone.dll error
I think it's because of using pzlib. I'm not sure. any idea?

try reading the pZLib topic for answers ? Especially pages 13-14 ( part about no crc errors, change arc.ini )

Yes, seems pzlib has some errors left, or ultrarc not modified and tested properly.

Have not tested a single game yet with UA+pzlib (only compress.bat).

Will report back asap.

I have found what cause the crc check error.

Different than expected it's not UA or pzlib, it's a bug in CIU script.

I have smasht that bug away.

First test was fine with a small game using pzlib+srep+lzma - All Ok.
Will test some other games too.

In the meantime, test with this Setup.exe

CIU2038b latest version

Updated setup with the latest version of the script (CIU2038b), due to a problem in the previous version. Thanks to KaktoR for fixing this.
