I did as was the instruction,,,, works like a charm,,,, I only didn't compile any isoz
I just used my nero to name my dvd AOW and transferred all the the files from a folder to a dvd-5 and it worked great.

Thanks a lot for instruction although i burnt a dvd dl version too!!!

[Trust]

@scaramonga:

it DON´T work !!
The language is englisch in the movie !!
I installed AOW from the original AOW DVD on a second computer and there are 2Files in the Root:
datas_de.dat (309MB)
datav_de.dat (89MB)

but i missed this 2files on my first computer.
I copyed the files from pc2 to pc1 and start the game again... and.... IT WORKS !!

hmmmmmmm, but why does the image on pc1 do not install these 2Files... ????

-Trust-

The command is as follows m8......

i6comp d data2.cab 96 datav_es.dat

i6comp (d - delete) CAB (data2.cab) File No (96) Filename (datav_es.dat)

So we run i6comp and ask it to delete with the (d) switch in CAB File specified (data2.cab) at file number (96) the filename (data_es.dat)

How Did You Know That The Number Sequence Fro 90 - 97 Are Them Files..!

[scaramonga]

Because I done a 'list' command first..........

i6comp l data2.cab

This lists all the files in a particular CAB file.......

[Chunter]

how do i get i6comp to open ? i double click it and just get a flsh of a small dos box then nothing..

[infierno]

i installed that program 'open command window here' and i can see when i right click on act of war folder a new option: open comand window here, i click and a MSDOS window open with the folder directoy and now what must i do?

After removing some languages from the DVD, it's very annoying that SETUP is asking you for language selection.

To get rid of it you have to edit the SETUP.INI .

If you leave only one language
change the SETUP.INI from:
[Startup]
EnableLangDlg=Y
...
[Languages]
Default=0x0009
count=5
key0=0x0009
key1=0x040c
key2=0x0007
key3=0x0010
key4=0x000a

to:
[Startup]
EnableLangDlg=N
...
[Languages]
Default=[code for your language]
count=1
key0=[code for your language]

0x0009 english / 0x040c french / 0x0007 german / 0x0010 italiano / 0x000a espaniol

If you leave more than one language (for example german&english)
change the SETUP.INI from:
see above

to:
[Startup]
EnableLangDlg=Y
...
[Languages]
Default=[code for your first language]
count=[count of languages]
key0=[code for your first language]
key1=[code for your second language]
...

thx for the language tweak!!..........hardly annoying?.......but a nice finisher indeed.......

In the tutorial there is a missing part, if you launch this command line:
i6comp l data2.cab
you can have listed all the files that are compressed inside the data2.cab file and the 90-97 are only identity code for every different language files of this game.The command i6comp d only delete the selected files.
You can check all the option for i6comp only launch i6comp without other option .
AAaaaaaaaahh good old dos.
