After step 2 do following:
3. Download this attachment and extract it to DVD1

4. Start recompressor.exe and wait until message "Waiting for you" appears.
-> minimize it and go to step five
-> DONT PRESS ANY KEY, just minimize it

5. Go to folder DVD1\data with Freearc and compress folder "BioGame" using these settings

6. after finishing, go to the window in step 2, where "waiting for you" did appear and press any key.

7. After recompressor.exe is finished, delete recompressor.exe and burn the temp folder DVD1 and created folder DVD2 with any label

In recompressor.exe you have the possibility to select your language
-> other languages will be deleted

Works Fine. Thanks for simple conversion.

hi yener90

after step 5 (Under new Method for windows 7) do we need to delete biogames folder from the data folder or not.

[deepak]

You need at least 20 GB free space.

1. Create a temp folder with the name "DVD1" (the name is really important, leave it like that) and copy the contents of the second DVD to this folder

2. Now move the contents of the first DVD to the "DVD1" folder too and overwrite

3. Download the Attachment and extract it to "DVD1" folder too and overwrite

4. Start recompressor.exe and wait (could take one hour)

5. After recompressor.exe is finished, delete recompressor.exe and burn the temp folder DVD1 and created folder DVD2 with any label

END SIZE:

DVD1: 3,84 GB
DVD2: 4,22 GB

FINISHED!!!

Here is the pic of the extractor:


PS: Use UDF format to burn.

1.1 New Attachment-> fixed spanish problem (before 540 Download)
1.2 New Attachment-> Now Supports MULTI 3 Conversion (before 205 Downloads)

Thank you yener90, easy conversion and that's work 100% fine !

I have a question, how do you create recompress.exe ? i like your method and i will use this method to convert other games.

[yener90]

unfortunately you cant use it.
recompresssor.exe is a command file (BAT File)
nothing special.
It only works with this game.

thanks for the hardwork buddy!
the conversion is very fast on my system it only takes 24mins to finish

DVD1 = 3.88 GB
DVD2 = 3.68 GB
with the latest DXredist Feb 2010 included

works flawlessly!

[deepak]

conversion works great

just installed the game and it started perfectly. Thanks

[eqagunn]

Conversion by yener90 from the first post works great.
I chose English for my language.

Sizes are as following:
DVD1 - 3.86 GB
DVD2 - 3.66 GB

From 14.29 GB to 7.53 GB, really nice compression.

Thank you.

yener90's help me here please:

I followed step by step your conversion everything all right, until i mounted the iso and the outrun chowed is in spanish and asking me to insert the dvd 1. I choose english for the language at the end of the conversion.

I've checked the other solutions you posted and none work, what am i doing wrong?

[yener90]

[joder666]
