Act of War REAL DVD5 Conversion!

[Schala]

I am sorry, but how do u create an ISO image from a DVD9?

[TRV]

Same like DVD5 or CD. Use your favorite burning software like Nero, Alcohol120% or CloneDVD...

If you want to make a DVD5 of the game, just copy the DVD Content to a folder on your hard disk an follow the instructions in first post...

(sorry for my bad englisch, but i´am from germany)

Use the instructions except of deleting the German files in Step 2 and don't use
i6comp d data2.cab 92 datav_de.dat
i6comp d data2.cab 93 datas_de.dat
in step 3.

You should get a version with English and German on a single DVD.

Hi, I followed the instructions at the first part of the thread about making myself a backup of my copy of Act of War. If I try to install the game with my backup I get a CRC error on datag.dat. Any ideas on what I can do to resolve this?

Thanks in advance!

just one question that still in mind ,
can i play the game without cracking the game?
because i dont see you mentioning about the protection.

Shouldn't be a problem if you have the 'original'??

[CVL4317]

i will get the original one soon ...

i just dont like to use the original CD to play , ( i can scratch it some how)
so ,. it's really important for me to have a back-up

There is a crack on GameCopyWorld.

My Question Is What Has This Command Done Compressted It Or Deleted Them.! Also What Does The Numbers 90 - 97 Represent.!

Someone Please Justify.!

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... ????

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.
