I'm sorry, I'm confused with ALVARIX2's guide...So i ask: you can also convert the game to 1xdvd5 only ita??

[pakrat2k2]

no not possible, just follow mviking conversion post #46 for ita language

[BelGiaguaro1980]

ehy boys, the conversion post #46 for ita language not working correctly because during installation appears error message on missing files...how to solve?

[pakrat2k2]

first off tell us what error message you get! AND which files it says missing.

need to know what files it says it's missing.

Use instructions from post #46 and this edited autorun.dat*:
*: Not work Russian language (maybe "pakrat2k2" edit ru.mst)

This is for MULTI3 (De,En,Ru) version!

@mviking

This autorun works fine in De and En? Why not Ru? I can modify... but I don't know how. I know Orca and MSIX. I know the Media table... The thing that I don't know is what numbers I have to put in the file sequence.

Thanks in advance.

@mviking

This is not working... Bad autorun.dat. File not found error.

[pakrat2k2]

file from post #55. Call it Default file (autorun.dat). When no embedded mst file is loaded
the volume labels in media table are Disc1. Load the extracted en-us.mst and the media table then changes to DISK# ( 1-3). ALSO the file sequence rises from 1448 in the Default file, to 1452 with the embedded en-us.mst file loaded.

When loading the DE.mst file again the sequence goes up to 1452 with the exception that file 1327 does not exist in the file table but IS listed in media table, that row can be deleted from it. The disk prompt & volume labels are DISK# ( 1-3), same as en-us.mst BUT again different from the default file.

For the RU.mst the file sequence only goes up to 1451, file 1327 does exist in file table & media table. BUT the disk prompt & volume labels are different from the default file.

The BIGGEST issue is that people have to learn that the default file, MUST have consistant disk prompt & volume labels BEFORE messing around with loading mst files, then those too have to match with the default & any other mst file that gets selected by the user, for language choice. Disk prompt & volume labels MUST match for all choices.
