Metro 2033 (DVD9 to 2xDVD5)

Special thanks go to the FileForums' repacking veterans here.

Inno Setup Script template is based on pakrat2k2's Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 layout and my own Ridge Racer Unbounded script layout.

Current Script Version: Base Version (based on Revision 1 of the Ridge Racer Unbounded repack script).

Repacking Requirements:

- Inno Setup or InnoIDE - to compile the repack
- Post-Installation Files for the Game - i.e.: the game files you have after you have installed the game, whether you have installed it via Steam or via disc.

Repacking Instructions:

1. Download the "Metro 2033.7z" archive and extract its contents.

2. Locate all of your Metro 2033 post-installation files, and note down the installation path that you have used to install the game in - e.g. if the game is installed in "C:\Program Files (x86)\THQ\Metro 2033\", then simply note that down.

3. After you have done that, look for the following section in the Inno Setup script at the top of the page, and replace the path that is currently in the script as shown in Fig. 1 with the one you have noted down from Step 1, as shown in Fig. 2:

Fig. 1 - Before Editing The Script

#define SourcePath "D:\Installed Programs\THQ\Metro 2033\"

Fig. 2 - After Editing The Script (Example Provided)

#define SourcePath "C:\Program Files (x86)\THQ\Metro 2033\"

4. Compile the repack now, and you should have six files, which are:

- Metro 2033.exe: 802KB
- Metro 2033-1a.bin: 1.45GB
- Metro 2033-1b.bin: 1.45GB
- Metro 2033-1c.bin: 1.45GB
--- Disc 1: ~4.35GB
- Metro 2033-2a.bin: 1.45GB
- Metro 2033-2b.bin: 288MB
--- Disc 2: ~1.73GB
Please note that the filesizes will vary slightly, depending on what files the end-user has, and what main executable he or she has, as a DRM-bypassed version of the main executable is usually significantly larger than a retail/original executable file.

Just compiled now on Windows 7 x86 (1845hrs on 9th April 2012, GMT+0000+BST).
