Brothers in Arms: Hell's Highway - (DVD9 TO DVD5)

[nando2002]

mondragon, if the setup can be unpacked, it means it's a NSIS installer (I think poseden said something about it). If you check your temp folder, you'll find the game.dll there.
Vista user will have that dll in their temp folder also.
the nsis script also has the code to inject the registry keys/values for the game explorer.

[mondragon]

nsis script extracted by universal extractor

NSIS.rar

uninstall works when making conversion with install sequence 1-2-1

EDIT: and didn't get corrupter installer error with 1-2-1

Tried again with install seq 1-2 and same label for both disks and i got corrupted installer error

Does uninstall work?

Neverless there will be problems for people with media center windows using Prepucij's conversion. Corrupted installer when trying to copy mcewrapper.exe and they have to insert dvd1 again and start install progress, then it will skip already copied files and install correctly mcewrapper.exe and uninstall info at end of install.

So its better choice to make it conversion with install sequence 1-2-1 (less hassle for media center users)

Brothers in Arms: Hell's Highway (DVD9 to 2xDVD5) install sequence 1-2-1

1) Create DISK1 and DISK2 folders and copy DVD content to DISK1

2) Move these cabs to DISK2

main3.cab
main4.cab
main5.cab
main6.cab
main7.cab

3) Copy Autorun.exe and Autorun.inf to DISK2

4) Edit Autorun.inf in DISK2 and change Open=Autorun.exe to Open=0

5) Make folder for crack/patches into DISK1

6) Burn or make isos with labels of your choice

Burned and tested on Vista x86 Ultimate

I tried this with Ultra ISO and mounted them but I got Corrupted Installer message a while after switching from Disc 2 to Disc 1. Im using Vista x64.

these are files inside support folder

i tried to modify script whith the new ones but i got the same error

additional change

Name: "{group}\Readme"; Filename: "{app}\Support\Readme.txt"; WorkingDir: "{app}\"; IconFilename: "{app}\Support\Readme.txt"

to

Name: "{group}\Readme"; Filename: "{app}\Support\LisezMoi.txt"; WorkingDir: "{app}\"; IconFilename: "{app}\Support\LisezMoi.txt"

then you dont have installed game in folder
Brothers in Arms - Hell's Highway
or you put iss [script] in wrong place

[mouradou]

you are absolutly right it was my mistake :
iss file must be outside the folder Brothers in Arms - Hell's Highway and not inside it that s it

thx mondragon i m compiling now and going to test for results

[mondragon]

wait :P
before compile check shortcut for register iin start menu -probably need to change for french version

[mouradou]

"C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\Gearbox Software\Brothers in Arms - Hell's Highway\Support\Register\Register.url"

thats the shortcut for register

[mouradou]

mondragon method is working for french conversion
thanx for the great effort

[theimperatorum]

THE DVD9TODVD5 mondragon conversion work perfect for the italian version in XP32

Very very tanks

Sorry it can't be fixed to ask "Disk 1" for second switch (i have tried), thats only small little detail problem. Those disk X prompts are determined how you put cab files.

main.cab main2.cab = Disk 1
main3.cab main4.cab = Disk 2
main5.cab main6.cab = Disk 3
main7.cab main8.cab = Disk 4
main9.cab = Disk 5
