WHEELMAN DVD9 TO 2XDVD5

Copy the contents of the DVD9 to a new folder..Move folder Disk7 to Disk12 to somewhere else & make ISO from 1st folder..Make a new ISO with the remaining Disk folders..Disk7 to Disk12

You get a StringID_NoDisk2 error when it gets to the end of ISO 1...clicking ok just follows on to the next ISO..

Wheelman DVD9 to 2xDVD5 multi5 (error fixed)

1) Copy DVD content to 'Wheelman' folder

2) Download wheelman_dvd9_to_2xdvd5.7z and extract it to 'Wheelman\Disk1' folder

3) Run 01_editlayout.bat in 'Wheelman\Disk1' folder

4) Run 02_replace_files.bat (wait until it finishes)

5) Run 03_clean_up.bat

6) Delete 'Disk3' - 'Disk12' folders

7) Move data3.cab from 'Disk1' to 'Disk2' folder, replace when asked

8) Move 'Disk2' folder to SAFE place (somewhere else than Wheelman folder)

9) Burn or make image from 'Wheelman' folder with label Wheelman_1

10) Delete 'Disk1' folder and move 'Disk2 folder back to 'Wheelman' folder

OPTIONAL: Edit autorun.inf and change OPEN=AUTORUN.exe to OPEN=0 for DVD2 (Might be necessary for XP users, but i have never had problems leaving it like it is on Vista and Win7)

11) Burn or make image from 'Wheelman' folder with label Wheelman_2

NOTES: Please insert disk is in English for all languages (Please insert disk 2 that contains the file data3.cab.), optionally change it to what you want by opening IPS file for your language in notepad and change text after ID_DISC2= before running 02_replace_files.bat

TEST using images before burning to disk

1. Do NOT use UltraISO Virtual Drive to test images, it has problems with recognizing Disk 2. Use Daemon Tools or SlySoft Virtual CloneDrive
2. UNMOUNT Disk 1 before you MOUNT Disk 2

sorry it works for italian version? (multi)

EDIT : sorry ravd but this is a conversion complete or a RIP? because in the folder 3-12 wich I delete there are a file of 650 mb in the folder 3-11, and there are a file of 110 mb in folder n 12.
Thanks.

it's not an rip, files in folders 3-12 are repackaged into data2.cab and data3.cab to Disk1 folder so those folders are unnecessary after doing conversion.

Conversion is for multi5, for other versions here is manual steps to do so. (This is for advanced users, maybe someone wants to write conversion for other versions based on this)

get iscab, use iscab in my conversion for example

1) make list.txt with command

ISCAB data1.cab -lx -i"list.txt"

notice -lx instead just -l, this will list ALL files, most importantly IPS files

2) Extract IPS files only

3) Edit IPS files with notepad and add

ID_DISC2=Please insert disk 2 that contains the file data3.cab.

This would give window with title "Setup Needs The Next Disk"
and text in window "Please insert disk 2 that contains the file data3.cab."
without error

Instead with window with label "Setup Needs The Next Disk"
and text in window "ID_DISC2"
and error before that

4) Run add and replace command to add modified IPS files back to cabs

ISCAB.exe data1.cab -a -i"list.txt"

Looks like some kind of issue with 64bit systems.. works fine on 32 bit but not on 64 bit systems. When it asks for next disk that contains data3.cab, and that dvd is inserted ( which worked fine on XP 32 bit ) it says that it cannot find the path for /Disk2 which contains the data3.cab file.


Error Saying it cannot read from write protected media. Remember these ISO's worked perfectly on 32bit system.

[pakrat2k2]

apparently it works ONLY with burnt media.. it still says cannt find data3.cab, but clicking ok IT CONTINUES. weird ?!?!
