Armed Assault 2 (DVD9->2xDVD5)

[mataanjin]

For all version

1. create two folders:
- 1. Arma2_1
- 2. Arma2_2

2. copy the dvd9 content to ARMA2_1 folder

3. move DirectX folder from ARMA2_1 to ARMA2_2

4. copy autorun.inf and data\ArmA2.ico from ARMA2_1 to ARMA2_2
and edit it by removing the open=autorun.exe line

5. edit setup.dat(use notepad), add this code after F:Uninstall.csv:UnInstall.csv

C:Arma2_2:dvd2
D:ARMA2\AddOns:AddOns

so your setup.dat will look like this

F:Uninstall.exe:UnInstall.exe
F:Uninstall.csv:UnInstall.csv

C:Arma2_2:dvd2:
D:ARMA2\AddOns:AddOns

K2:D

S:ArmA 2:arma2.exe

6. make a New Text Document.txt and rename it to dvd2(without extension)

7. make folder ARMA2\addons in Arma2_2.

8. move some file from Arma2_1\ARMA2\addons to Arma2_2\ARMA2\addons
till it fits for one dvd.


notes:
-you can patch the game to 1.05 than use the file to make a already patched installer
-you can compress file using gzip or Win-GZ

some explanation about setup.dat
D:A:B -> copy a directory A and rename it to B
F:A:B -> copy a fileA and rename it to B
L:900 -> check disk space needed in byte
C:A:B -> ask for new dvd/cd with label A and contain file B


anyone know how to make setup.crc?
what crc is used, and use what program to calc the crc?
