Also, before using ISOINFO, type:
CD (Your game directory)

Two examples, pay attention!

- Let's say the ISO file is in C:\ISO\DiRT3.
So, you'll type in command prompt:
CD C:\ISO\DiRT3

- Let's say the ISO is in another HDD (Be it a real one or another partition), say E:\TEMP\DIRT3.
So, you'll type in command prompt:
CD E:\TEMP\DIRT3
E:


And after that, insert the ISOINFO commands, as peterf1999 and pakrat2k2 explained before.
Thank for your help, KillerOh.
please kindly teach me again from A -Z !!
On my computer:
- the iso file is: D3_2.iso
- this iso is put in folder TEMP, like this: F:\TEMP\D3_2
- extract file "isoinfo" of peterf1999 into the folder TEMP
- my command prompt on my computer like this: C:\USERS\HUUDUNG>
I'll type: C:\USERS\HUUDUNG>CD F:\TEMP\D3_2

then, insert "isoinfo commands" like this:
C:\USERS\HUUDUNG>CD F:\TEMP\D3_2 isoinfo -d -if:\temp\D3_2.iso
==> error occurs: Too many parameters - isoinfo (??? )

Pls tell me what step I did wrongly?
how to insert "isoinfo command"? (I have to type what to insert that command)

Do EXACTLY what pakrat2k2 posted before me, or, in "A-to-Z" steps:

For this "A-to-Z" steps, I'll consider:
  • Your ISO file is named D3_2.iso
  • Your temp folder is F:\TEMP\D3_2
  • The isoinfo provided by either Peterf1999 or Joe Forster/STA is in the F:\TEMP\D3_2 folder (That is, in the same folder which contains the D3_2.iso file)

So, let's go:
  • Open the command prompt.
  • The command prompt should show the text C:\USERS\HUUDUNG>
  • Type CD F:\TEMP\D3_2 then press [ENTER]
  • Then, type F: then press [ENTER]
  • Now, the command prompt should show the text F:\TEMP\D3_2>
  • Now, type isoinfo -d -if:\temp\D3_2\D3_2.iso and press [ENTER]
  • You'll see all the required info, just like in the screenshot peterf1999 posted here!
  • If something goes wrong this time, DO NOT ask me a sh*t.
    This is the "lowest knowledge level" help I can EVER provide for someone. Below this, I have to do the work by myself, but you see... it's not possible.


Even easier way to know wtf is wrong:
  • Read the conversion again.
  • Redo the ENTIRE conversion from SCRATCH (By using new temp folders and the files from original DVD media).
  • If you're creating the iso (Or image) files with a burning software (Say, Nero), it contains a place named "Label name" or "Volume Label" or something.
    If you're REALLY doing so, the "volume label" for DISK 1 is D3_1, and for DISK 2 is D3_2
  • If you have UltraISO, just right-click in the "D3_1" and "D3_2" folders and choose the "UltraIso" options to create the "D3_1.iso" and "D3_2.iso" files.




I'm not a IT. I'm actually a normal person, mainly if compared to peterf199, Yener90, Mondragon and several others from Fileforums which are almost talking in "Machine language". Allright, just kidding about them talking in machine language!

But to talk the truth, if you read carefully and try to understand how the things works (By reading another conversions, their replies, by testing some of the tools used in the older conversions... And mainly the ones with custom installers - even if you don't own the games), you'll be impressed with you will be able to do after.

For example, I started in CD-2-DVD.com with no knowledge about how people modified some files and such, almost just like you. But now:
  • by reading a little of the peterf1999's custom installer for F1 2010, I was able to create a "Five language" backup (Instead of only one from original conversion) by modifying some lines in the original conversion.
  • Despite the "closed source" aspect of some of peterf1999's installers, the "open source" (Not already compiled) ones allowed me to understand a little more about InnoSetup - Not to mention how "easy" is to change the code so you can adapt his custom installer for **any** game.
  • Also, I was able to change the install sequence for Dead Space 2 conversion (For 2xDVD5) from DVD1->2->1 to DVD 1->2, keeping two languages (Not ** ANY ** two languages, but HEY!) and even archieving smaller image files!

Not to mention we can replace the original DirectX installer with more compressed ones... Found a way in RyanVM forums (Yeah, a forum for those who wants to build "custom" Windows versions by adding windows updates and "silent install" of softwares)...

Surely, I need to post these "modified conversions" after. Oh, my humanity...
