Assassin's Creed III
(2x DVD9 to 2x DVD5) *Standard Edition* *FULL*

1) Install the game and then update to v1.01

2) Remove the foreign languages files from 'sounddata\Pc' & 'multi\sounddata\Pc' folders

3) Extract 'AC3_2x_DVD5.7z' contents (not in game folder)

4) Launch Compress.bat & wait...

5) Copy from 1st DVD9 to 'AC3_2DVD5\AC3\Disk1' folder :

'Support' folder

6) Burn or make isos with label names of your choice

Note: I suggest to backup the sound files removed to mantain update compatibility,
because Ubisoft uses xdelta diff engine for updates that may require the presence of these files.

No, without MP the size is around 5 gb, with biks (Good Quality) re-sampled ~ 4.8 gb

Thanks for the answer Peter! Have you by chance tested with more than 1 language? I LOVE AC with italian voices, but I would like to burn it with spanish files also for the friends...

No, the Data2 wouldn't fit on 1st dvd, this AC is a huge game (>15 gb)!.

You could do both italian (for u) & spanish (for friends) conversion

Remove only the files in sounddata folders (sounds_*.pck), no need to delete the files in support folder.

Simple, copy all installation archives on one DVD9

The DVD9 structure should be like this:

Support 
Autorun.exe
Data1.bin
Data2.bin
Data3.bin
Data4.bin
Data5.bin
Data6.bin
Setup.exe
autorun.inf

@peterf1999 Could you send me a PM with the setup.cab and setup.ini you used in this conversion please?

Thanks indeed and kind regards as always!

I try it your compression method and my created CI from Yener source(THX Yener)
but on Data3.bin (4,5 too) got error NOT A SREP COMPRESED FILE(or something like that)
I taked arc.ini from your conversion and put in Setup.cab
My Setup.ini looks like this

PrecompVer=inside
[...]
[ExtractSettings]
FreeArcFile1={src}\Data1.bin;DestDir:{app};Disk:1
FreeArcFile2={src}\Data2.bin;DestDir:{app};Disk:1
FreeArcFile3={src}\Data3.bin;DestDir:{app};Disk:1
FreeArcFile4={src}\Data4.bin;DestDir:{app};Disk:1
FreeArcFile5={src}\Data5.bin;DestDir:{app};Disk:1

Its something wrong?
Or send your setup.ini peter gonna be faster :P

Which setup.ini you talking about?

My script doesn't use any setup.ini, maybe you need to update the script at latest FreeArc.

the reason u getting any error with this coversion is cause peter used xdelta in his compression and i dont think yeners script supports xdelta and exe2 look at the compress.bat from peter's conversion. this is wat i see just looking at it i could be wrg.

[peterf1999]

* fixed missing auto installation of Visual c++ runtime and punkbuster malformed path.


Use the new Setup.exe, take it from 1st post.

Note:
to launch the autorun.exe automatically after successfully completed installation, put it also on Disk2
