Does uninstall work?

Neverless there will be problems for people with media center windows using Prepucij's conversion. Corrupted installer when trying to copy mcewrapper.exe and they have to insert dvd1 again and start install progress, then it will skip already copied files and install correctly mcewrapper.exe and uninstall info at end of install.

So its better choice to make it conversion with install sequence 1-2-1 (less hassle for media center users)

Brothers in Arms: Hell's Highway (DVD9 to 2xDVD5) install sequence 1-2-1

1) Create DISK1 and DISK2 folders and copy DVD content to DISK1

2) Move these cabs to DISK2

main3.cab
main4.cab
main5.cab
main6.cab
main7.cab

3) Copy Autorun.exe and Autorun.inf to DISK2

4) Edit Autorun.inf in DISK2 and change Open=Autorun.exe to Open=0

5) Make folder for crack/patches into DISK1

6) Burn or make isos with labels of your choice

Burned and tested on Vista x86 Ultimate

maybe you could upload a .bat file to automatic conversion. ty

rathet not
1) install game from dvd9 [conversion tested for english only version]
2) download inno http://www.innosetup.com/isdl.php - isetup-5.2.3.exe
install in default place [not important where you install]
3) run inno inno compiler and choose new empty script [first option]
4) go to post [url]Brothers in Arms: Hell's Highway dvd9 to dvd5 eng - select script inside code and insert it into that empty new script
save that script in folder where you install game [for example use name nameofscript.iss]
\Brothers in Arms - Hell's Highway\
\nameofscript.iss

5) additional download icon and put in the same place where script exists
6) in inno compiler search for option compile [need 4gb space in that partition and few hours to finish]

7) after inno ends copiling you get new subfolder 'Output'
that folder is your new dvd5
8) copy to output:
folders Redist/support from dvd5
additional you can copy autorun.exe & autorun.inf
9) download compiled autoapplier nodvd http://fileforums.com/showpost.php?p...9&postcount=31
put it into \crack\ with nodvd biahh.exe
10) burn with any volumelabel

final version :

crack\
Redist\
Support\
setup*.*
setup.exe
autorun.exe
autorun.inf

[mondragon]

its rather for eng only but can be reedited for any language

edit script
from

source: ".\Brothers in Arms - Hell's Highway\*"; Excludes: "Brothers in Arms - Hell's Highway\SumacGame\Movies\*,*.bik"; DestDir: "{app}" ;  Flags: ignoreversion recursesubdirs createallsubdirs
source: ".\Brothers in Arms - Hell's Highway\SumacGame\Movies\*"; DestDir: "{app}\SumacGame\Movies\" ;Flags: ignoreversion nocompression recursesubdirs createallsubdirs

to

source: ".\Brothers in Arms - Hell's Highway\*"; DestDir: "{app}" ;  Flags: ignoreversion recursesubdirs createallsubdirs

from

Root: HKLM; Subkey: "SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Brothers in Arms - Hell's Highway"; ValueType: string; ValueName: InstallLang; ValueData: 1033

these are files inside support folder

i tried to modify script whith the new ones but i got the same error

additional change

Name: "{group}\Readme"; Filename: "{app}\Support\Readme.txt"; WorkingDir: "{app}\"; IconFilename: "{app}\Support\Readme.txt"

to

Name: "{group}\Readme"; Filename: "{app}\Support\LisezMoi.txt"; WorkingDir: "{app}\"; IconFilename: "{app}\Support\LisezMoi.txt"

then you dont have installed game in folder
Brothers in Arms - Hell's Highway
or you put iss [script] in wrong place

[mouradou]

you are absolutly right it was my mistake :
iss file must be outside the folder Brothers in Arms - Hell's Highway and not inside it that s it

thx mondragon i m compiling now and going to test for results

[mondragon]

wait :P
before compile check shortcut for register iin start menu -probably need to change for french version

[mouradou]

"C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\Gearbox Software\Brothers in Arms - Hell's Highway\Support\Register\Register.url"

thats the shortcut for register

@ravd, i've tried and it works OK. Install sequence 1-2-1. But, after I changed the disc to disc 2, and it continued to install, and then it prompted for "Disk 4", I inserted disk 1 and it continued and finished OK. Can you fix this? Thx.

[ravd]

Sorry it can't be fixed to ask "Disk 1" for second switch (i have tried), thats only small little detail problem. Those disk X prompts are determined how you put cab files.

main.cab main2.cab = Disk 1
main3.cab main4.cab = Disk 2
main5.cab main6.cab = Disk 3
main7.cab main8.cab = Disk 4
main9.cab = Disk 5

@prepucij: thx 4 making this so easy 2 understand...
(the screenshots, including the exact filesize)

i hope more people will follow this excellent example
