EDIT: OK, I think I've localized the problem... I've been using v1-v2 setup, I'm now testing v3 setup... I'll let you know how it goes
EDIT2: It's all right, setup v3 works correctly

what about the last update for the game v1.03.16.4825 is there a way to include it ?
it's 319 mb
any ideas ?

[BAMsE]

JacksMafia I've finished the game few days ago and don't know about the update. If this patch replaces original files with new ones it still should fit on DVD5. You can add extra ~120MB to fill DVD5 to the brim, also may compress videos with -mx -ld800 instead -m0 to gain another 100MB. I'll try it if I find some time.

The update replaces files that already exist with new ones. So just follow the conversion as it is, and you'll end up with a conversion WITH newest files in 1 language that fits on 1xdvd5... final size = 4.37GB

[BAMsE]

Yep, after updating to 1.03 it still fits on DVD5 with one language and soundtrack. Although there may be little differences of size due to bik converting, so if you can't pack it to 4.37GB just compress movies with -mx -ld800

[nerevarine]

With patch 1.02, soundtrack one spoken lang and two subtitles - it still fits on dvd5
Great work BAMsE!

Thanks Bamse, i make the dvd5 but when i launch game after install , it crashes during the initial video but I tried to play the video and it works, what can be?

[BAMsE]

morbidoso88 you may try to overwrite that video by original one, but I wonder this'll help. I've changed reg info to Italian and it works fine despite the fact there are English voices and Polish text only.

Hi, why we need to keep all these tracks and not just the one needed for my language?
In the example tracks 0,1,8,3,4,5,12,13,14,15 and not just track 8 for italian lang?

tnx

because some of the tracks could just be environment sounds & not a specific language, so if you only encooded with your language track, it wont include the background noises etc.

[Matrosko]

ok...that's why tracks are mono i think...
Anyway i've found that tracks 3 (LFE), 12, 13, 14, 15 are only sound without voices.
In fact tracks 0,1,2,4,5 are english spoken with and without sound.
Tracks 6 is german, 7 is france, 9 is spanish, 10 is another latin maybe mexican and 11 japanese.
So for italian would be enough tracks 3,8,12,13,14,15 (6tracks in fact).
Using advanced play on file cine_2400 is more clear to understand tracks languages.
Maybe have been keept english as basic language and then a second choice ? Track 2 is also english and is not included.
tnx

Matrosko I took these numbers from a configuration file and checked them to make sure they correspond to the description. Other tracks are different channels for different sound systems (stereo, 5.1 etc). I don't know why there is english voice in other tracks, I don't know they are needed to correct playback for other languages. If you believe you don't need them and you're sure can complete the game without them, so... you may delete them
