INSTRUCTIONS:
--------------------------------------------------
1. Install WATCH_DOGS and:
- update to v1.03.471 (tested),
- apply NOCD if needed, because there is only 20MB of free disk space on 3rd DVD.

2. Download WD_3xDVD5.rar and extract it to any TEMP (NOT into game folder).
Download data2_for_v1.03.471.rar and overwrite old data2.ini.
Optionally, if you have any DLC installed, download data5_for_DLCs.rar and overwrite old data5.ini (thanks Morgrel for info).
Be sure to have at least 18.3GB of free space on the drive, also additional 5.3GB in the installation folder.
Note: See Post #52 for files.

3. Go to TEMP, run converter.exe:
- choose your game folder or click [Cancel] to use default one,
- choose to shut down your PC after conversion or not (yes, you can go sleep now ),
- choose to create iso or not,
- choose preferred language.

4. Test installation and game. Make iso/burn content of WD_# folders with any label.



UPDATE 1:
--------------------------------------------------
- fixed not reconstructing windy_city.dat when installed to the folder with spaces,
- added support for Support folder (need recompressing data2.cab, data3.cab and data5.cab).

TIP:
if you don't want Support folder and have done this conversion before this update,
you don't need to recreate any cab, just download WD_3xDVD5_fix.rar,
extract next to old setup.exe and run patcher.exe

UPDATE 2:
--------------------------------------------------
- data2.ini changed due to two additional files added by TheWorse's graphic mod (no need to d/l or recompress anything - this update is for people who want to compress mod files among the rest game files, others may just place mod archive on 3rd DVD and install it manually after game installation)



UPDATE 3:
--------------------------------------------------
- data2.ini changed to suit v1.03.471 update. Unfortunatelly TheWorse's mod v0.7 no longer works witch this version of game

TIP:
if you've prepared this conversion before v1.03.471 update and want to include it,
just recreate data2.cab

Setup has problem with accessing Program Files folders due to Windows' UAC (copying anything to these folders is forbidden by default). Installation to any other folder works fine.
Now the question is how the hell other functions of setup gain access to system folders?
I have an idea how to override this limitation:
files are merged via cmd console and system's copy command directly into {app} folder (so in our case into Program Files folder). The trick will be to merge them via cmd into {tmp} and then copy to {app} directly via inno.
Please wait for an update or just remember to install to another folder

EDIT: this problem is solved now.

Banse aki with the disc 2 was 9GB WHAT did I do wrong?

[y_thelastknight]

Those desings.. man you are awesome

[BAMsE]

Updated.
If you have prepared all cabs before update 1 and don't need Support folder just d/l WD_3xDVD5_fix.rar, extract next to old setup.exe and run patcher.exe.
If you want Support folder you need to d/l WD_3xDVD5.rar and recreate data2.cab, data3.cab and data5.cab.

@Juggernautwill can you show me the content and sizes of cab files?

[Juggernautwill]

Bamse everything worked, wanted to know where I put the support folder which disk

[BAMsE]

It should be placed automatically on 3rd DVD after data5.cab creation.
If, for some reason, isn't, copy it and delete ReadMe, Licence and Manual folders.

These graphics and ideas are way better than the original one.

[logansama]

thanx for you work. i have issues..my second disk size 1kb.. when install, do without problems.. but only 8gb is the size of the instalation folder.. spanish language, win 7 64bits

[BAMsE]

Read conversion.log also try move game folder somewhere outside Program Files folder, then run converter again and recreate data2 and data3.cab

[logansama]

thanx for you response, sorry my not google english . i start again the convertion. and i post the results when finish.

[BAMsE]

Check if there are windy_city.dat.001 to 005 files

[logansama]

well i do the convertion, and compared files, and yes the windy_city.dat.001 to 005 files is missing..what is the solution for this?

[logansama]

checking the ini files, in disk 3, in "exclude files", theres a line, that mention windy_city.dat.. i think the solution it will be, erase that line, or is sometime else ?
