YOU CANT

there is no way to take a dvd game, make an image, rip the image to fit on a cdr, and then burn it to a cdr unless the game was under 700mb and only had a dummy file to begin with. that's where they're called dvdRIPs, because things were RIPPED out.

When i download a gta3 vice city it`s was only 687mb! When i ripped it from my original it wad 2500 mb! and 687mb gta3 vice city someone must have ripped it from a original dvd game. An Original Vice city game! I am shorly when he ripped the game it must have been more mb (more than 687mb). And he was smart and found a way to make the file smaller! i don`t now how maybe zip or something!I have a dvdburner! That`s why i am asking! I wanna now how to get dvd game smaller so i can put it in overnet for people who have no dvdburner to have a chans play games!

Were you just born stupid, or did you go to a special school??

The 687MB file is a RIP. Movies have been compressed/ clipped/ replaced with black screen or short clips to reduce the overall size of the movie. Media checks have been altered, LBA's adjusted--all kinds of work goes into making this happen. A RIP is NOT a direct image.

Your Image is a raw data file. It may compress a bit if you Zip it up. You will likely get more compression with a .rar encoding then with .zip though. Otherwise, you've got a 2.5GB file (or 2 1GB's and one 500MB file, depending on how/what imaged it). As for telling you how to get this file to someone else....READ THE FORUM RULES. This is illegal and against forum policy. do not ask for anymore help with this. Go to sites designed for this purpose--ie P2P or Usenet.

That is what I was talking about. D/L games is not legit Someone has to put a warning against this in there when these things pop up. It's a legal thing.

I was listing the different methods often used. If the FMV sequences are too complex to compress small enough, sometimes they will substitute a different movie or just blank out the short, insignificant ones with a black screen.

What you have is a recompiled image (ie, a RIP). It is NOT the same as your direct image of the game. Even zipped up with .rar, the image would likely be about 1GB or so at best (unless it's full of dummy files which spoof the original size of the image and compress very well). The movies have been re-encoded to a lower resolution or color depth, and possibly some dummy files have been reduced in size and the LBA assignments have been carefully edited and media checks corrected to make it all fit and run from a CD instead of a DVD. This is a very complicated process and there are HowTo's and tools out there on the web. You just need to search on it. Try one of the other game forums. Try starting at consoleworld.com or something. Technically, this topic should not be covered in too much depth here--especially with all the piracy crap that's bouncing around right now.
