Awesome!!!, that was it, the kind of apostrophe!. Next time I need a conversion I´ll get a magnifying glass to read the instructions.

Thanks a lot.

I hope you can help me guys... Greetings!!

strange http 404 error

link works, copy & paste this url in your browser :

http://www.cd-2-dvd.com/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=1095

[ravd]

autorun.dat has same label for both, but changes are made in mst files so there is no reason to change labels in autorun.dat

Just use that autorun.dat in that conversion and it will work

[emacrack]

I said that it's not a login problem. If I try to get in the main page "www.cd-2-dvd.com" I get the same error, with mozilla and internet explorer. Is this page only available for some countries??

EDIT: Now I can get in the page. As I said, that web, is blocked for some countries so I had to get in throught a proxy server. Greetings... (sorry for my english).

EDIT2: I was looking the mst files that are includded in the autorun.dat. Each one make changes in the media table too, so when you make a conversion to 2DVD5 you have to be careful with that.

Mirror's Edge dvd9 to dvd5 Conversion
not tested
or only compressed 2languages not alll

PART 1 - Creating Fake installer
Copy cabarc.exe [from cabarc73.5kb(6.0.5730.13)] to c:\windows\system32\
Copy contents of game to hdd - dont copy GameMov.cab at this time
Download and extract fake_cab_by_ravd.bat to hdd where you copy game and run it [after that delete it].
From DummyCabs cut all files [dummy cabs] to main folder on hdd where you copy game and replace all.
Copy from dvd9 GameMov.cab to hdd.

Delete files from hdd:

from Redistributable\ [leave only for ENglish]
vcredist_x86_de.exe
vcredist_x86_es.exe
vcredist_x86_fr.exe
vcredist_x86_it.exe

delete DummyCabs

Download TdGame_dummy.bat and put in hdd and run it - it's dummy TdGame folder [after that delete it]


PART 2 - Installing anc Compressing Game.
Install correctly game to any place.
In installed folder delete folders:

E:\Program Files\EA Games\Mirror's Edge\TdGame\Movies\
E:\Program Files\EA Games\Mirror's Edge\Support\
E:\Program Files\EA Games\Mirror's Edge\Engine\Localization\ - all folders that you dont need [leave INT]
E:\Program Files\EA Games\Mirror's Edge\TdGame\CookedPC\Audio\ - all folders that you dont need [leave INT]

Files to delete:

E:\Program Files\EA Games\Mirror's Edge\Binaries\*.* [leave PhysXLocal subfolder]
e:\Program Files\EA Games\Mirror's Edge\GDFBinary.dll
e:\Program Files\EA Games\Mirror's Edge\ME_Icon.ico

Install Total Commander - Download.
In TC go to installed folder [in left panel]
E:\Program Files\EA Games\ [that path where i have installed game]
in right panel go to
E:\Program Files\EA Games\
in right panel make new folders - for example name it: 1 and 2

Delete non needed language [leave english untouched = INT]
THAT STEP FOR ENGLISH ONLY [remove lang when move in total commander]
for that deletions use TC
In left panel select Mirror's Edge folder and in right panel go to 2
back to left panel and hit F6 [move]:
in row 'Only files of this type' write

*_LOC_pol.*;*_LOC_fra.*;*_LOC_rus.*;*_LOC_esn.*;*_LOC_cze.*;*_LOC_deu.*;*_LOC_hun.*;*_LOC_ita.*

and hit ok


In left panel select Mirror's Edge folder and in right panel go to 1
back to left panel and hit F6 [move]:
in row 'Only files of this type' write

*.upk

and hit ok

now you ready to compress contents of both panel [contents of Mirror's Edge not that folder] in FreeArc


look into folders, name of file, type of compression, make sfx
ADDED - use name of sfx without ' [check below code]
Put attached loader MirrorSetup.exe and both compressed sfx into subfolder

\TdGame\Mirrors.exe
\TdGame\Mirrors_Edge1.exe
\TdGame\Mirrors_Edge2.exe

Replace autorun.dat with attached autorun.dat

Make iso [for example in starburn] and test it, volumelabel any or use orginal.

NOT TESTED
because i compress folders mirror's edge not contents
maybe not needed to remove any language ... but that your choice

AND it still simple non modified window
if u nando2002 or ravd or maybe someone else share modified exe then u welcome

I read and re-read and didn't understood,
Why to NOP all files and after than install the game, isn't that give and error ?!

WHICH directories and/or files you packed with freearc as ME_1 and ME_2 ?! Because TdGame from picture nr 1 and nr 2 are different and TdGame directory exists also in installed game and also un-installed one (i mean the one found on dvd9)...

Need more details !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Please make time to recheck your guide and guys... you lied, you didn't tested THIS peterf1999 work... because its wrong also at step 4 and 5 he told to NOP files and install game after that !?!?!!!!!!

I'm awaiting for peterf1999 correction...
