im not 100% sure if its NTSC, there were 2 files in my movies folder, one was gtatitles.bik, and i think intro.bik.

I cant remember if it was gtatitles or intro but one was 36MB the other was 11MB.

the compuedge dir is just movie files that go to the uneeded to demos of agressive inline, vexx, atv2, etc.

zaxis.xmv and intro.xmv are just pregame garbage

these files total to a whopping 118 MB for a small game that it is!

Delete the following from Matt Hoffman's Pro Bmx 2

Have not tested it yet but on NFS Underground in movies the english movies are named 01_Day.mad then 02.. 03... and the other languages begin with an abbreviaion FR01_day.mad for french and GR01_day.mad for german and so on.
Have saved loads of space by deleting the other langauge movies. But it's too late to test it now, bed is beckoning me.
Think I will also swap the other movies with the smallest movie file there is and simply rename it so that it overwrites the larger one will see if it works.

As of now, there are a few additions to be done, some can be seen above (or in previous pages), and some were sent to me via PM.

I won't be able to add them for right now. I'm working on moving the list into a slightly better format which might help a few people out. It will me at least. But, I want to get this done before I add the new deletions, but I promise by the end of the weekend (or sooner) to be done with that.

The Demo and cdxmedia Folders can both be deleted. In the root directory you can delete the cdx.xbe file and the usual live related files;
dashupdate.xbe
downloader.xbe
update.xbe

For a total savings of 978MB

I didn't thing XIII was that big. But I sent a PM to the listmaster if you will. You csn save 26 MB if you delete the Attract video. If forget where it is at the moment. It's not too hard to find though.

[Rahszhul]

Listmaster?
...and the XIII file was "/Videos/Attract.xmv".
Thanks for the help so far!

street_kings,
I recently got ahold of XIII, so I'll give it a long unneccisary look. I really don't know how a cel shaded game can be that freaking huge.


-Update-
I've completed converting the XML to it's new format along with the updated deletions I've recieved from everybody along with a few of my own . Now I just need to re-work the horrible, horrible XSLT. This *might* be done as the weekend hits, which would be nice. Though don't count on it, I'm not that trustworthy!

does anyone know how to down sample the movie file on enter the matrix to put it under the 4.7 limit.  i have been searching and found boo coos of junk on putting to hard drive and fixing long file names   but no one really talks about backing up to dvd.  i have heard that you need to down sample  but no one talked of how.  like what program can be used to do it.   thanx in advance

[Rahszhul]

 Ok, that's annoying... *shrug*

--We interupt you from this update to bring you the following advertisements--

NEW! from WiSo, dvd2xbox 0.5.3!

The primary reason I decided to plug this program, is because of a few new features that were just added.
+ moved excludeDirs and excludeFiles to the ACL system as items ED and EF.
+ improved wildcard searching for RM/SM/HR. See ACLSyntax.txt for details.
+ ACL processing could now be started over the action menu any time you want.

So, esentially, after I finish up reworking the list I'll begin work on creating .acl entries for dvd2xbox for you people to lazily free up space! It's great, right?
