you have to remember that within each bik there are a number of audio tracks, each providing a seperate function. It may be a corresponding language or stereo/mono track, environment sounds, etc the list is huge what it may be. And for some games like this one there is only english audio with subtitles for the other languages. BUT you still have to extract each sound track and them mix it back it to your re-encoded biks. BAMsE is the master of bik conversion, just read some of his topics that include bik conversion.

Tested and working on Win7 64bit SP1

But if I do in this way (see below) the installation of the update 1.1 is faster because it had only 1 language to update

1. Go to your directory\Sound_Bin_PC folder, if you choose english language/audio for example, leave the following archives [...]
2. Install the game and patches 1.1 & 1.2

Thanx for the convertion!

I had not tested that way yet, but if works, great!
Thanks for report!

[pakrat2k2]

yes much quicker if you delete the languages you DONT want, then install updates 1.1 & 1.2.. just speeds thru, takes much less time to install.

[dani_ell]

Thanks, My conversion was DVD1= 4.34 Gb and DVD2= 2.66 Gb (includes updates 1.1 & 1.2 and audio English and Spanish).
Tested only the conversion, installation will test later.
Sorry for my english google

The idea, is making a downsampling and leave only 1 or 2 languages...

The game Bik files:

Resolution: 1040x600
FPS: 30
Tracks: 9
Track ID0: Ambient Sound (Mono)
Track ID2: Ambient Sound (Stereo)
Track ID1: Not Tested (Stereo)
Track ID101: English Voices (Mono)
Track ID102: French Voices (Mono)
Track ID103: Spanish Voices (Mono)
Track ID104: German Voices (Mono)
Track ID105: Not Tested (Mono)
Track ID106: Not Tested (Mono)

Ok... finally find it how to make, reading the official BIK help.

First need to downsampling the Movie: (test are only in the first movie of the game)

The first you need to know, is the size of this bik video audio is 5.5Mb each language, two languages are 11Mb + Video Size.

With this, downsampling the movie off 50% of original quality. Tested and looks great! (dont touch any Size or FPS)
The value /Dxx is the % of downsampling, select another one for test.
Note: This conversion remove all tracks from our new video, only leave the track 0.

Bink HBOL_CIN_TheNewTeam.bik converted\New_HBOL_CIN_TheNewTeam.bik /d50 /m3.0 /l4 /p8

And now, insert the languages into the new file we made
Take the original file with all languages, and mix with the new one we made, the value /Tx is the desire track, and the /ix is the Imput track.

BinkMix converted\HBOL_CIN_TheNewTeam.bik HBOL_CIN_TheNewTeam.bik converted\HBOL_CIN_TheNewTeam.bik /l4 /t2 /i2
BinkMix converted\HBOL_CIN_TheNewTeam.bik HBOL_CIN_TheNewTeam.bik converted\HBOL_CIN_TheNewTeam.bik /l4 /t0 /i0
BinkMix converted\HBOL_CIN_TheNewTeam.bik HBOL_CIN_TheNewTeam.bik converted\HBOL_CIN_TheNewTeam.bik /l4 /t1 /i1
BinkMix converted\HBOL_CIN_TheNewTeam.bik HBOL_CIN_TheNewTeam.bik converted\HBOL_CIN_TheNewTeam.bik /l4 /t101 /i101
BinkMix converted\HBOL_CIN_TheNewTeam.bik HBOL_CIN_TheNewTeam.bik converted\HBOL_CIN_TheNewTeam.bik /l4 /t103 /i103

With this test:
Original File Size: 149.644Mb
New File SIze...: 75.880Mb

Edit: Added the batch file for RadTools for complete downsampling all the movies with 2 languages (English & Spanish).

Hi all.

Fabioddq you wanted to ask a question eh I realized that the new script, when you give the default installation option you have set as installation options in the Custom option where you get what directx, etc ... to give the default option as I do not install anything in the Custom option.





In normal default tab install it would have to install everything.

Unfortunately, i didn't understand what you say. I see by your location that you are Brazilian, so send me a PM in portuguese. Thanks

EDIT...

You must copy Support folder to TCGRFS_3 before the creation of ISO'S or burn DVD's.

[Demonn]

I'm not Brazilian or Portuguese. That sets the standard nick think.
Have when you give the installation the installation Default tab, normal would have to install everything, but it may be optional as direcx and etc. ..

For only works if you give me the option of custom installation.

[pakrat2k2]

Fabioddq what Demonn, is saying is that choosing default installation you DONT get to choose optional programs IE directx etc. It should be optional as well even choosing default location. It does let you choose to install them or not under custom installation.

thanks for taking the time, I kept forgetting to post how-to & that others wanted to know how-to, you provided excellent description of the process.

[Demonn]

This is all in the folder you put your ini file Support.

[LauncherSettings]
InstallRedist = 1

Launch1 = DirectX
Launch164 = 0
Launch1BeforeInstall = 0
LaunchCom1 = Support \ DirectX \ DXSETUP.exe
LaunchArg1 = / silent

Launch2 = Microsoft Visual C + + 2008 SP1 x86
Launch264 = 0
Launch2BeforeInstall = 0
LaunchCom2 = Support \ vcredist_2008SP1_x86.exe
LaunchArg2 = / q: a

Launch3 = Ubisoft Game Launcher
Launch364 = 0
Launch3BeforeInstall = 0
LaunchCom3 = Support \ UbisoftGameLauncher.exe
LaunchArg3 = / q: a

Launch4 = Punkbuster
Launch464 = 0
Launch4BeforeInstall = 0
LaunchCom4 = Support \ pbsvc.exe
LaunchArg4 = / i


But neither you install forms, being in the DVD3

Support folder I put it in the DVD3.
