When peter releases a DVD9 to '2xDVD5' conversion, its not long before people start asking for '1xDVD5'.
And when he releases a 1xDVD5 the people want a 2xDVD5 version.
Bud, it's true... my head is broken!

However here it is
Code:
Fallout - Meshes.bsa file
Fallout - Misc.bsa file
Fallout - Textures.bsa file
Fallout - Textures2.bsa file

Output archive: FNV_1
Compression: -mx -ld192mb or -m0 (no compression)
Make exe: Not checked
Code:
Shaders folder
FalloutNV.esm file
Fallout - Voices1.bsa file
Fallout - Sound.bsa file
Credits.txt file
CreditsWacky.txt file
Data.sfv file

Output archive: FNV_2
Compression: -mx -ld192mb or -m0 (no compression)
Make exe: Not checked
Dudes the next time get the conversions as they are, this is not my work

I don't believe you'll accept this suggestion, but if this is the "big" problem, why you don't send the "codes" instead of the pre-compiled installer next time, like you did with The Whitcher 2, huh?

No, seriously. By the ammount of times I've compiled your custom installers, I've learned how to compile in InnoSetup itself.
And by doing this, we can "tweak" (Or, at very least, TRY to tweak) the installer to fit our needs. Already did it once for your F1 2010 custom installer, and these are my results:
  • Your Conversion:
    • Allows only one language (From the 5 avaliable in installer and the 7-8 from the lang files)
    • Requires re-compression of the game folder almost entirely with FreeArc
    • ... But surely unpacks faster
  • My "tweaked" one (Using the main script and a "tweaked" ENG lang script):
    • Allows 5 languages (English, Italian, German, French, Spanish), but only one installed (Ex: Select "Spanish" as installer language; Only "Spanish" lang will be installed). There are 2 or 3 more (Russian, Polish and Japanese), but I've skipped these because... They don't even show in the installer!
    • Contains "movies" and "language" folders as external in Inno, so much less files to compress
    • ... But I've used the Inno compression... ¬¬
For much of my surprise, the full game (With 5 languages) + Update 1.01 + Razor NoCD (Yes, the update won't replace the cracked files) + a "tweaked" Dx9 installer I got with DirectX File collector and AddOn builder (No worries, this is safe, nice and legal) and all the DVD's "redist" files (Including that huge@$$ G4WL installer) fits in a single DVD5... with 30mbytes free!
Consider that my InnoSetup knowledge isn't that big, and even yet it's not that hard to know what requires changing - Even for building a custom setup for another game.




...And to finish it all! :P
