To make a DVD5 with this game by: pakrat2k2
do a search on google for 16comp
16comp l( L ) data2.cab will list then event ID filename... make note of the language you want to keep..
Then extract the ISO to your HD NTFS needed as over 5G
Goto video folder and delete all the wav files EXCEPT ENG_Cutscene_00.wav
DELETE Directx folder
DELETE Language (readme.txt) files from Root
Unzip 16comp to root dir
goto command prompt root dir of your extracted iso
16comp d data2.cab 90 datav_fr.dat
16comp d data2.cab 91 datas_fr.dat
16comp d data2.cab 92 datav_de.dat
16comp d data2.cab 93 datas_de.dat
16comp d data2.cab 94 datav_it.dat
16comp d data2.cab 95 datas_it.dat
16comp d data2.cab 96 datav_es.dat
16comp d data2.cab 97 datav_es.dat
You NOW have a filesize of ~3.3G which you CAN burn to NORMAL DVD
you can find it here http://myplc.com/sony/bin/i6comp.zip
If anyone knows hwo to make it work please post a step by step cause i have no idea how 16com work and probably 80% of the people here too.

| Code: | Thought this should go here as it seems where most backup threads are.
Anyway , as you guys may know act of war dvd version is dvd9 (or at least euro version is ,dunno bout us one) at 5.13gb. So can't do a direct copy unless you got a dual layer writer ,but you can split it to 2 dvd 5 quite easily.
Anyway here go's.
Make folder on hardrive and copy contents of act of war there. Make two more folders named Disc 1 and 2 for now.
From main folder copy these files to disc 1 folder.
Direct X
Manual
Video
Actofwar.dat
Aow.ico
Autorun.exe
Autorun.inf
data1.cab
data1.hdr
data2.cab
data3.cab
data4.cab
engine32.cab
layout.bin
Léeme.txt
Leggimi.txt
Liesmich.txt
LisezMoi.txt
Readme.txt
setup.bmp
setup.boot
setup.exe
setup.ini
setup.inx
Should come to 3.54GB. That's disc 1 sorted.
Now copy these from main folder to disc 2
Video
actofwar.dat
Aow.ico
Autorun.inf
data5.cab
data6.cab
engine32.cab
layout.bin
Léeme.txt
Leggimi.txt
Liesmich.txt
LisezMoi.txt
Readme.txt
setup.bmp
setup.boot
setup.exe
setup.ini
setup.inx
Should be 2.06gb.
Now open autorun.inf on disc 2 and and remove line open=Autorun.exe. That's it. Now just burn the contents of the folders (not the folder) as a data disc with volume lable AOW (both discs). I used record now max , but should work with others. When it finished with disc 1 it will just ask for install disc , swap discs and and press ok.
You're done. Act of war backed up onto 2 dvd5.

Well the problem with this tutorial is that he wrote 16comp insted of i6comp. So the easy way is to unpack the i6comp.exe from : http://myplc.com/sony/bin/i6comp.zip to the folder where you have unpacked the iso.
Then open a dos window : Start/Run : type cmd and press ok
browse to the folder where you have unpacked the iso. Then just copy and paste (16comp d data2.cab 90 datav_fr.dat) one by one in the dos window. when it's all over make it as iso again and you should have a size of 3 gb |

As with pallebrun I can also confirm it works beyond perfectly! Wow.. all that foreign speech these companies make for a global launch! Ouch! Now.. we need a cracked v1.03 update to get some better Nat Negotiation!  Game is pretty decent - dunno quite yet if its better than Zero Hour (which has 12 distinct Generals). Gfx are obviously 5x better but its all about gameplay.

good game but too simple really. I like the video's and the ingame previews and sounds but the gameplay is too plain. i only played the first few missions so i may be wrong but i certainly didn't feel like i was challenged

1-get i6comp
2-copy all data.cab files from iso to a new directory

I have never wasted so much space on my HD on such a crappy thing ever! 
Sure, the graphics and story etc are great, but not my type of game.. But to you guys who like these kind of games: Doesn´t it become boring after a while?.. same thing all the time... |
innovation is rare. sport games are always the same, shooters are always the same, real time strategy is always the same.
but only in their basic elements. in the details they're often pretty different while still beeing the same type of game (obviously, an RTS will always be an RTS, there is nothing you can do about it)
Playing Generals all the time gets boring. But Act of War is, while beeing very similar to Generals, a new game, with new units, new tactics, new maps, new graphics, new story. And that's more than some *new* shooter's or FIFA games for example offered lately.

Thanks for the great explanation on how to reduce the size of this release.
worked like a charm!
Still looking for a keyboard shortcut to have units "force attack" something (like cars or barrels).

Hmm I've been playing some skirmish games...
I liked the single-player campaign, but I donno, skirmish (and probably multiplayer) isn't that fun for me. Specially when you play as the Consortium.

I find stealth units to be almost completely useless, there are so many ways for them to be detected that they might as well not even have stealth capability.

well, check (in windows) if your c:\temp contains all the files from the dvd (which includes the data2.cab.
Put the i6comp file in this same directory.
In windows go to start --> run and type in command.
You should see a black screen that looks like a DOS interface.
type
cd c:\temp (if that does indeed hold all the files).
Then run the
i6comp d data2.cab 90 datav_fr.dat
command.
should work
If you get a message saying it can't find the data2.cab you are not in the correct directory.

Since this is not a scene release it won't be widely available, but anybody that can search will find his copy i guess
