1. Install the game. Update game, apply NO-CD if necessary.
2. Download attachment, extract to HD, NOT in Gamefolder.
3. Move __Installer folder files (below)from game install directory to last dvd in extracted folder.

Mass Effect Andromeda\__Installer\directx\redist\
Mass Effect Andromeda\__Installer\vc\vc2010sp1\redist\ both x86 x64
Mass Effect Andromeda\__Installer\vc\vc2012\redist\ both x86 x64
Mass Effect Andromeda\__Installer\vc\vc2013\redist\ both x86 x64

4. Run UltraARC_mod, Browse/Select Your installed game.
5. Make iso files with the same name of folders.
6. Test the conversion, before burning ISO.

Enjoy!!

Someone here is able to repack the game from 51GB to 36.55GB like SEY*** release ? I repacked it with srep64+delta+4x4:lzma:max and I got only 41.9GB . I checked the files with zlib checker pro and deflate scan test, nothing of useful I found. Anyone can give to me some suggestion/hint/tip, please ?

It seems that english language must be present in order to game work, no matter what language you use. Same as ME1-3.

PS: Someone knows about "{app}\Data\Win32\streaminginstall\multiplayerinst allpackage" if we can delete this for sure?

removing from data & patch subfolders makes game in endless loading loop.

Thanks @pakrat.

I don't understand... you deleted the multiplayer folders that pakrat wrote ? Thank you pakrat and kaktor ! I will try

[KaktoR]

Yes, exactly.

Using compression srep+delta+lzma
Compression time around 2 hours (depends).

Ok guys I made some test. Pakrat, if you remove those folders you will get missing sounds and you can't talk with other pg in the game, you get no sound and no voices ! Bad idea !

[KaktoR]

Have not tested it yet. But if this is true, i am lucky that i have done some backup for those folders

Yes, btw if you must/want play with audio in english you can delete "de" and "fr" folders ~4.71GB .

[KaktoR]

So, first start without MP content ended in infinite loading screen (twice).
Put the MP content back to it's place and now the game works with just only german language.

Will just wait for confirmation from other users here.

L0v3craft, KaktoR, my apologies, helps if I don't have more then 1 gamefolder....
was doing some tests for SP only and happened to start from full game folder.

I've removed the initial response I made to prevent others from copying it. I'm doing more research to find out if some of those files can be deleted.

"{app}\Data\Win32\streaminginstall\multiplayerinst allpackage" tested with cas.cat & first 3 files game started fine with sound & voices. will update if find any more info.
