thats the same way i ripped my copy ^^^
although using a compression rate of 75%,will mean swapmagic disk users may have do to a TOC refresh
i used 65 %,and the videos are fine.TOC is 4.2 gb,give or take a few mb

thanks to gnie for making rhe extraction tool

btw,you can leave the game as multilang if you want,just choose a higher compression rate with pssdown (the lang pack doesnt take up much space anyway)

Ok i tried getting FBS2 patched with Toxic patcher and it still crashes on the FMVs and the cut scenes. Will this fix that problem? Ive exhausted all other methods so im hoping.

[hyperdrunk]

HI, im using ESR, if I do this process, then itll fix the freezing on FMVs and Cut Scene issue?
