Anyone has backed up this game on a 4.7GB DVD-R yet? I don't think there are any files that can be deleted, and the game is 5.29GB in size. If it can be plitted into 2 DVD-Rs that is fine too. Thanks.

Personally, spend a couple of quid on a DVD+R DL and copy the whole thing!

1. Copy all files to your computer hard drive using craxion, or which ever program you wish to use
2. Browse to the folder which holds the game For my example im using folder named "D"
3. Open D or your folder, navigate to "RES" then Sounds, then the folder DO select the file cine.xwb, and copy it to your desktop, this is the easiest method i have found to copy and paste file names.
4. now navigate back to the "sound folder" resize the folder window so that you can see both the window and your desktop which contains the file cine.xwb.
5. we are going to replace the following files with cine.xwb:
DO_en.xwb
FI_en.xwb
FM_en.xwb
HO_en.xwb
KI_en.xwb
TM_en.xwb
for each file rename cine.xwb to the correct file name above then copy into the sounds folder replacing the larger file with the newly renamed cine.xwb like so
Rename cine.xwb to DO_en.xwb the 250+meg file is no 111kb! these files seem to be just the music, and Speech files that play while your in the towns, subtitles still work, so turn them on under options screen and you'll have to do a little reading, but at least it fits on a dvd-r. You still have the commentator shooting one liners at you since that sound file is not linked to the towns. I have not completed the game yet but i'm almost 2 hours in and no problems yet.
good luck

dvd shrink
this program usually works for me to reduce the quality of the video files so they can be reduced in size. I used it to backup my "guy game" which is like 6.5g...
do a web search for the program using "DVD shrink official" and you should hit their UK site. It's a completely free full version and can be used to backup almost any dvd and convert them to region free or otherwise re-author the disc.
Hope that helps...
