Which .DAT files not need from the EN/FR version to have only EN language and smaller install package?

Thx.

Attached is an alternate dvd icon and autorun picture, since the stock ones were kinda boring IMO.

Thx mviking for 3xDVD5

Smurf Stomper: Maybe I did some mistake, but your version doesn't work to me

GODZYLLA conversion worked 100%.

No. My conversion is 2xDVD9 to 1xDVD9. There are various other DVD5 conversions around here, though.

Dvd name can be anything you like with my conversion, just create an entry in autorun.inf via notepad that looks like this:

Label=Dead Space 2

I know the thread is rather old, but I'm trying to convert DS2 on 1xDVD9.
Everything is alright, it installs fine from the HDD Directory where the files are temporarily stored, (with placeholders for the fr movies and removed ds2dat files) but as soon as I burn to ISO and install from there the installer asks for the second DVD during installation...

Could you perhaps share your autorun.dat for your 2xDVD9 to 1xDVD9 Conversion?

(Ive tried to edit the autorun.dat myself using ORCA but that just corrupts the file and then I can't even install from HDD anymore. :-( )

first off look in the autorun.inf file for label=bla bla bla.... does it evven have one? AND did you use same label for ISO as temp HDD storage ?
secondly off what languages does your DS2 include?

NEVER burn to disk, before testing install/uninstall that way if errors come up you havent wasted a dvd. Mount the ISO & test it from there to install / uninstall & oncehat works THEN burn the dvds.

@alexandr frei: Well, I'm guessing you know how to change the disk prompt using Orca... If you don't, don't bother reading the next steps, because in this type of conversion you need to do a little extra:

1. extract mst from autorun.dat with msiX (msix filename of MSI /out c:\msicontent)
2. edit and save mst with orca or appeditor
3. remove old mst from autorun.dat with msidb (msidb -d filename of MSI -j filename of MST to remove)
4. insert new modified mst to autorun.dat with msidb (msidb -d filename of MSI -r filename of MST to insert)

Must be that you did something wrong somewhere.
Just follow (carefully) steps. Both methods work well.

[kikim20dz]

I tried both method and several times, but still nothing .....
