first of all, the game has to be installed.
Then you need latest version of freearc installed in your system.

make a temp folder on your HD ( not in gamefolder ) extract 'DS_DVD5.7z' to the temp folder.

then follow steps 2-6. step 7 ( already have game installed ) but use freearc and compress the contents of the gamefolder using the settings from the screenshot. DONT save the DS_arc.exe file in gamefolder, choose the temp folder as location to save the file.

[menace4]

So only DS_DVD5.7z and DS_arc.exe should be in the temp folder, right?

[pakrat2k2]

no the contents of DS_DVD5.7z & DS_arc.exe will be in TEMP folder

[pakrat2k2]

sounds right

[pakrat2k2]

sounds like you have duplicates

the folder you want is the dark sector folder + subfolder

Deleted Junkposts.
EDIT: Beginning this from the start.
So where to extract dvd9 and when to replace with DS_dvd5.7z?

[pakrat2k2]

make temp folder on HD, then subfolder Dark Sector in temp folder
Copy all content from DVD9 to 'temp\Dark Sector'
remove all files from temp\Dark Sector\redist\directx
Extract & overwrite all content of 'DS_DVD5.7z' to 'temp\' NOT temp/dark sector
Run repack.bat ( right-click run as admin )
then follow step 6 & 7

Seems that I had a repacked release 5.63 GB, which my friend gave me. Can you direct me to a torrent/approximate size of the disc which is used in this guide?

[JacksMafia]

i made the repack right but DS_arc.exe doesn't lunch auto i have to run it manually and point it to the folder
why is that?
