1. Install the game. Update game to latest version.

2. Download attachment, extract to HD, NOT in Gamefolder.

3. Run UltraARC, Browse/Select Your game folder, then choose output location, & compression method.

4. Test the conversion, before burning ISO.

5. Then burn folder contents to DVD.

sunjo, edit your post and add the images & files directly here instead of 3rd party site.
( Manage Attatchments is what you use to add them here ).

Very nice. It would've been nicer if someone actually managed to remove CD check from setupcw.exe of RTCW-Platinum Edition. Haven't found the answer and stopped looking for it 3 years ago. Then I made a breakthrough a year ago, managed not to hack exe file, cause I'm dumb for that kind of things, but to recreate script file from tiny pieces I gathered using Universal Extractor and a few other programs I don't recall. Compiled it using old Wise installer, tested it and burned to disc.

So, if anyone is interested, give it a try. I only tested it on my PC.

I rearranged dialog text a little, everything is as original (except those nagging messages).
Extract EXE from Rtcwplat rebuilded and replace your original.
You may want to add line label=Return to Castle Wolfenstein (or whatever name you prefer) to autorun.inf before burning it to disc.


On the other hand, you could try Rtcwetplat modified that has modified EXEs for RTCW and ET.

Simple progress bar and billboards that were used in V1.0 of the RTCW game and graphics on dialogs for ET.

Also, you will need to add art and sound folders to your Setup\rsrc folder.
Sound folder contains install music for RTCW (which you actually have) and second one for ET (this one is needed cause setup won't run without it).
Art folder contains billboards for both RTCW and ET. Original art folder has dialog graphics which are quite useless since they are already inside setupcw.exe and has 3 billboards for ET (I've added 2 more I think).


Not quite sure, I think I've left out other languages than English from Rtcwetplat modified setup files, they should be still present in Rtcwplat rebuilded.

Done that from the start, uploaded them from HD, but for some reason unknown to me I can't make those links to show properly. Deleted them, reuploaded them and only pictures are shown. If I delete pictures, RAR links are shown properly. Also, I've tried to delete RAR files only just to see what will hapen then. They appeared when I logged off and pictures were gone.
I'm stunned, this never happen to me before.
Plus, every 10-20 minutes I'm getting message to log in even though I haven't log out. Why is that?

[pakrat2k2]

did you click remember me when logging in ?

[sunjo]

Yes, but issue remains. Deleted both RAR attachments from post, everything is showing fine on my screen, when logged out pictures are gone even the attach code is still there, but RAR files are present even though I deleted them. Crazy.

@sunjo

It all looks fine to me ... Pictures are visible and both rar files are there as forum attachments.

Nice post btw, since it is a stand alone conversion and does not appear to need any files etc from 'pakrat's' conversion or anyone else's conversion you could have posted your conversion in its own thread, you still can if you wanted to. That way it will get its own listing in the 'Conversion Index.

But it doesn't to me.
In Edit mode I have picture attachments and no RAR files attached.

In Preview mode RAR files are there and everything looks OK.

When I log out I see this on screen.

Something is crazy going on here, hope it's not me .
On the other hand thanks and I'll try post it on new thread. Gonna have to make more specific details on conversion. Would be easier just to upload the whole ISO of the game, but I know...
Anyway, if I manage to post it, maybe I could do same with COD-Deluxe Edition. It's also made with Wise Installation System.

[pakrat2k2]

it's on your side, it now displays just fine & the rar files are included in the post itself.
