As Napalmguy said try to use switches -mx -ld=192m (192mb for decompression)

I only used -mx (-ld=1gb default)

I use high compression method but The ME_1.exe file isn't enough fit size for DVD5.
sorry for my English
1) update to lastest freearc
2) rather dont compreess files/folders bigger that 2GB
3) have freespace on partiton where freearc is installed or on c: partition?

I've tried it too.
With ALL languages.
I even did it with the v1.01 patched game (Which only changes the game's main executable, btw. AFAIK, the patch doesn't even changes the registry)
And yeah, it fitted in a single-layer DVD. And despite taking much time to compress, it even installed reasonably fast... =X

So, unless you:
- Tested it with a different "release" of the game (Like Steam, Origin or the "Japanese-Chinese-Korean" quoted in gamecopyworld)
- Or want to put the main game AND the Time Trials DLC

that should, INDEED, work.

I'm testing dvd9-2dvd5 conversion. Edited autorun.dat, made two iso images (moved CookMap0-9 to second image) and mounted first image with daemon-tools. However in the middle of the installation when I have to insert second disc (mount second image) the prompt keeps telling me to insert game disc. I've tried different autorun.dat files posted here with no success. Any ideas please?
