2. Move directx, vc folders and physx setups from game's folder to DVD4/Redist folder in conversion.


Is best to copy these folders rather than move them as I compiled, took 1hr 30m , got to end and displayed error, couldnt find a directx file - because i had moved it as per instructions part 2. So had to start again!

Thanks though, looking good on - in process...

Technically you can have directx not found error in INNO. If there's no redist, INNO will skip to install them.

With all DLC's and latest update I'm getting a 6 disk result. Can I increase the compression in INNO script to get 4 disks? Currently its a full disk (5) and 591mb (6) over, which is alot and Im doubtful that more compression can be applied...?

Thanks

lzma2/ultra64 will get you a 4-DVD result, but only after you edit DLCs' sfar files. Basically, you want to remove all voices except English from them. Meaning, when you edit a sfar, mark the following for deletion:

- to delete French voices: *FRA.afc and *FRA.pcc.
- to delete Italian voices: *ITA.afc and *ITA.pcc
- to delete German voices: *DEU.afc and *DEU.pcc

You may also remove these from your main Mass Effect 3 content, but that doesn't require editing SFARs. What you definitely must edit is From Ashes, Leviathan, Omega and Citadel. What you must NOT edit is the Multiplayer DLCs as they get verified online!

Same for german conversion.

Go to GameDir\BIOGame\CookedPCConsole and delete all other languages you don't want except the *.tlk files! Otherwise you get crypted fonts InGame!

People, base ME3 content trimming is NOT ENOUGH! I can't stress this enough: grab ME3 DLC Explorer and edit .sfar's for Extended Cut, From Ashes, Leviathan, Omega and Citadel! It will trim their sizes by half, resulting in much smaller size of the game overall!

EDIT: Apologies for leaving Extended Cut out of that list.

[Theodor]

Since I have already burned my previous Mass Effect 3 conversion with all the dlcs released before Citadel dlc.Can someone create a separate conversion for the citadel dlc so that it fits in a dvd5.

[senseman]

if you use walton method,here is the tools..no need search web

[WaltonSimons]

Thanks for that, I was too lazy to post it myself.

Thanks to @WaltonSimons for sharing the info about DLC content trimming and @senseman for sharing the ME3 Explorer with us.
