Kane & Lynch Dead Men (DVD9 to DVD5)

[ravd]

ENGLISH ONLY with few biks kept

Well i made my version more like freemans now, but keeping intro and trailer bik, using Loader_Sequence.wav to replace non-english wavs (All of them, freemans version just few) and PC_Eng.str to replace non-english str. So no deleting, msi editing and compressing, like my old conversion (what works for me atleast)

and all of this is automated for you, no need to go through all folders and replacing wavs, just for making room for few biks, and neither would i. Renames Launcher.exe to Launcer.exe.bak and replaces it with cracked one. Edits to setup.ini and autorun.inf are automated too.

Rar includes only three files kanelynch.bat, blank.bik (1280x720 1frame, made from original bik) and Launcher.exe

This was made just for fun, to make conversion with few possible files, rather than providing rar to overwrite those files

Thanks to freeman for conversion

copy dvd content to KANE_LYNCH folder, extract rar there, run KANELYNCH.BAT (deletes it self and all files it makes after conversion is made)
Edit Setup.ini and change "EnableLangDlg=Y" to "EnableLangDlg=N" and "count=5" to "count=1"
make ISO and install, let me know if any errors occur. DVD SIZE: 4,30gb

kanelynch-eng-dvd5.rar

Conversion...

...keeps these videos: M00_Intro.bik (which starts the story, game begins where intro left), Trailer.bik (Well its trailer, kept because it fits on dvd after deleting other biks and its same as attract01.bik)
...replaces these videos: Attract01.bik, Attrack02.bik, Attrack03.bik (These are more like trailers, these loops in "press space" menu and aren't nothing important) and of course replaced different language variants of attract and intro videos

You can watch/make bik videos with RAD Video Tools, and i suggest to watch at least videos before conversion what will be replaced

EDIT: Here is the batch script used in conversion, if that download link stop working, do this

Needed files, cracked Launcher.exe (download from GCW) and Blank.bik (make one from original bik with RAD Video Tools with settings Frame range: Start: 0 End: 1, rename it blank.bik)
Open notepad and copy paste code into it, save as kanelynch.bat
Put these files to your KANE_LYNCH folder and run kanelynch.bat
Delete blank.bik and kanelynch.bat
Edit setup.ini and change "EnableLangDlg=Y" to "EnableLangDlg=N" and "count=5" to "count=1"
