Agreed, which is why I made the post in the first place.
Actually, you got the 499th post. This is the 500th.
You win a prize.
hm
u could add to the main page of the site, a list with the last adds
because everytime a game is added we need to search what game is.
if the list it would be much more easy =D

Tiger Woods 2004 NTSC
Anyone know what format those XBX files are in Tiger Woods 2004?
Deleting the credits, logo, and intro would save 0.1 GB if someone knew how to replace them with blank files.

a2002adam,
Thanks EVER SO F--KING much for that useful thread crapping you did earlier. That was SO worth my god damned time.
...Back on the serious side, thanks to the mod that removed those.
Magimog,
For Dynasty Warriors 4, are you using the PAL version? My copy doesn't have the files mentioned. Maybe I deleted them long ago, and made a goof not writing them down. *shrug*
Angerwound,
Sadly, the ever so USEFUL a2002adam decided to spam crap posts in this thread, he beat you to the 500th reply. And, truthfully, you got 500th post, not reply. Your prize: A "Good Job" sticker. ... not for the ?# post, but for your overall helpfulness.
...um, like PolarBearWY already said.. heh
...uh, the sticker will be in the mail Monday.
iscai,
Looking at the last, say 30 posts, shouldn't be that hard. I end up looking at 100+ posts every time I do updates to ensure I don't miss anything. Just as an FYI I try to do the updates on the weekend when I'll have an hour or two at least worth of free time.
PolarBearWY,
Tiger Wood's XBX files are an abomination to Xbox programming. All other games that have .xbx files have them as images. These are 89% of the time the logos you'll see with Avalaunch/UnleashX/MXM or the Dashboard's save manager. Why EA used .xbx as movies is beyond anything that I'm aware of.

Oddworld Munch's Oddysee NTSC UPDATED!
You mentioned that you'd follow up as to whether you could replace the BIKs with a blank one. Well, you can.
movies/credits.bik
movies/ms_logo.bik
movies/opening_movie.bik
movies/OW_intro.bik
movies/attract/attract.bik
Those are movies that will not affect the value of playing the game for the first time. All the other movies can also be replaced with a blank.bik, but would remove some of the value of the game.
Funny. This game is only 300 MB without any movies, but what fun would that be?
Edited to add that These 5 deletions add another 0.54 GB of saved space to the previous amount of 0.59 GB that were in the xdemos folder.

Rahszhul --
Would you consider starting to collect data on game sizes (before and after) as well? I think that might be handy to have occasionally, especially for those that like the burn multi-game DVDRs.
Everyone --
How about starting to post whether the deletions are for NTSC or PAL? It should be easy to do, since the original disc says what it is. Of course, there are plenty of people posting information from pirated games so we won't always know whether it is NTSC or PAL. Guys, you may not want to post info for games that haven't yet been released. The mods leave this thread alone, for now.

Tenchu Return From Darkness NTSC UPDATE
Whomever reported the deletions forgot the most obvious one of them all.
/dashupdate.xbe
There's an extra 51 MB. New total should be closer to 230 MB.
Are those movie files really unneeded? I haven't played the game, nor do I have an XMV viewer. Those are ALL the movies in the game so I'm curious.

No Im using the NTSC version. Or at least I'm sure I have NTSC, I bought it while working in a video game store
Im sure the game works without the aforementioned files, I have played a level or two with no problems!

Would anyone who has a true blank .wmv file please post it for download? The person who posted the current is awesome, but i fear of going into seizure after seeing 5 or more blinking green screens
Also if ANYONE can tell me the video listing for
WWERAW2/Movie/Intro
that would be REALLLLLY appreciated, i wasnt paying attention and renamed the video file that has all the wrestling footage on it (the one that plays during season mode) if anyone could tell me that it would be great!

Can someone please get in touch with me? I'd like a small blank.xmv file to test a few things.
PolarBear, I have one at home, at work at the moment. If you would like I could send it over later tonight.
probally a dumb question but do you have to put the acl file information in or can you just delete the stuff shown basically what im asking is can i just delete the files shown and everything will be fine or do i have to add the acl tect in also
Angerwound:
I while back you posted deletions to Fatal Frame. are these cut scenes in the game, pre game, credits? it looks like they are "in game" and have information on the plot and story. I just got this game, haven't played it yet. I always play my games off the Hdd. will I bee missing importaint stuff by making these deletions?
thnx, virtucon
edit:I always seem to figure things out...after I make a post asking a question. never mind Angerwound, I watched a few in XBMC and I think I had better leave them in for now.

does any1 have any deletions from Street Hoops? I have tested to see if the intros will give a DDE by just putting a number in front of the orginal file name (i.e- 1ATVlogo.bik) It doesnt give a DDE so I would ike to tear this 5gb+ game down soon. I would like to keep the mixtapes in the game just get rid of the music vids and intros.

Yes, they are needed for the plot of the game. They were the only deletions possible for the game and thought I would post for those that may not need them. Sorry for not adding additional notes to that effect. Maybe Rahszhul could do that for me.

If you renamed the file and did not recieve a DDE than you should be able to remove that file with no problem at all. Make sure you didn't just rename a file that the xbox did not try to access. Rename the opening movies first to see if they have DDE reporting added.

You can just delete the files shown. Make sure they do not say that they need to replaced though. This information will be given above the list of deletions. Good Luck!
I found some deletions for Street Hoops It turns a 5gb+ game to a reasonable 2gb+ game. I have only left out the mixtapes since you probally want to earn them and watch them. Go to the FMV folder and then you can delete these movies

Yeah, I was looking at those. They are not BIK or XMV. I downloaded one to the PC, renamed to a .BIK, no go in the RAD Video Tools. UnleashX and renaming it to a .XMV said unsupported format. EA uses custom vids in nearly all their titles that I've seen. Sometimes they will use XMV, but rarely if ever for an ingame vid will they use something unproprietary. They're bitches when it comes to deleting videos.
Does anyone know anyone who works in EA's xbox division?
Anyways, I found something whilst digging around in Project Gotham Racing 2 (NTSC version of course)... a couple movie replacements and a couple more deletions!
| CODE |
| Replacements: \cache\English.xmv \cache\intro1.xmv \cache\intro2.xmv \cache\intro3.xmv Unneeded Stuff: \buffer0 \buffer1 Total: 228mb = 0.22gb (I think it's listed in gigs) |
If anyone's worried about the 'buffer' files, I checked them out in a hex editor. Both are identical files, all 0'd out. They're simply blank. Must have been to fill up the DVD completely or something, all I know is that they're completely useless on the HDD!
I know this is not quite a deletion, however it's good info, so...
For those of you who have Hitman Contracts, if you are not happy with one of the 3 controller layouts they are giving you you're basically screwed because you can't edit the layout in the game. Well, I have discovered in my meddling that you can modify the 'HitmanGamepadXbox1.cfg' (also ...2.cfg and ...3.cfg) files but just pick one and mod that. It seems this has been ported from PS2 because there are references in there to Circle, Square etc, but the PS2 to xbox controller equivalents are known. I remember seeing them when looking up cheats for Vice City, and because all the xbox cheats had to be "ported" from the PS2 cheats someone had posted the controller conversions, but since you can view the changes in the menu, I wouldn't worry too too much about it.
If you're happy, leave it, if not, then change away! Like I said before, it shows the changes made in the game menu (once you replace the file and load the game back up), so you can see if you were successful or not in your endeavour to change the controls.
Enjoy!

I have looked all over and can't find any retail stores willing to sell it before release.
If I remember correctly, the previous Rallisport was about 2.5 GB. I can't imagine this game is nearly 3x that. I swear some of these delevopers just put a bunch of garbage on the games to make you guys not be able to backup to DVD-R.
Just like all the previous Windows versions prior to XP... 550 MBs of stuff on the CD but you really only needed the <80 MB of stuff from the Setup folder, or whatever it was called.
Is there anyway to remove all of the radio from Project Gotham two and not get errors?
| QUOTE (Mr A @ May 4 2004, 06:58 PM) |
| Is there anyway to remove all of the radio from Project Gotham two and not get errors? |
As far as I can tell, no. I edited cities.ini to comment out the radio stations of only one city (Edinburgh), and it wouldn't load the game, it froze on the loading screen before the menu. I tried removing the radio stations from every city, no go either. I don't think there's a simple way to to this, so I'm going to say that you can't. But, by all means, prove me wrong!
Rallisport 2 is out now but people were speaking of it's contents before it's release, please be careful about which titles you speak of. If you legally acquired the game before it's release more power to you but we don't want this thread getting shut down because of a few people that grabbed the pirated release. This was mentioned before but I don't think many paid much attention. So here is the WARNING.... again...
Sooo, Rallisport 2 is out, and yup, this bad boy is big. Any rip artists have an idea on what we can take out?

Hi all...
I was wondering if the movies in Crimson Sea could be replaced with smaller XMV files....they eat up almost 2 gigs of space. Also, how deletable are the movies in Mortal Kombat:DA? are they extras or are they integral? thanks for any help, love this thread.

Well as for Mortal Kombat Deadly Alliance check this out: http://xbox.download-from.us/index.php?game=72
These movies are extras. We try not to include integral movies into the rips, but if we do we almost always add a note.
As for Crimson Sea:
There hasn't been a game yet where you couldn't replace the file with a smaller XMV so I don't know why you couldn't.
To update my Street Hoops deleteions you can delete all of the fmvs by just deleting the whole folder. It will not create a DDE so dont worry about it. If do want to view the mixtapes quick just delete some of movies you dont want then rename those mixtapes to ones you deleted (Ex.- SHMIXT3.bik to ATVlogo.bik) Most ppl probally know this but hey it works!

If you're referring to the post about the languages, no that's just general information from a LONG time ago, well a long time in internet time.
If it's something different, well, please clarify.
If you want deletions for Rallisport 2, then hold tight, I'm sure if there are any, someone will post them. If there are not any, well, that's life. Metal Gear Solid (I think) is 6 gigs, no deletions, there are just some games like that.
i have a copy of rallisport 2 as my uncle owns 3 eb stores here in australia and as far as i have seen no files can be deleted as like a few others they r all intertwined an result in a DDE

English can be "en", "eng", "english", and has also been seen as "int" German can be "de", "deutsch", "dutch", "g", "ge, "ger" or "german" Italian can be "i", "it", "ita" italian" French can be "f", "fr", "fra", "fre", "french" Japanese can be "j", "ja", "jap", "japanese" Chinese can be "ch", "chi", "chinese" Spanish can be "es", "esp", "s", "sp", "spa", "spanish" Polish can be "pol", "polish" ---> German can be ......,"dutch",... i thought dutch was dutch, and not german |
German can also be "al" and English can be "an" if the company is French.

Sorry if this has already been asked/answered, but where can I get blank .bik, .wmv, .xmv etc. files? Once found, could they be linked to from the first post in this thread, and on the rip website. to make them easier to find in future?

Here's a link for a zip file containing both a blank .bik and .xmv. it was originally posted on page 4 and it still works
BLANK XMV BIK PAGE
Well, I'm rather surprised no one has posted this yet since this was one of the "hot" games everyone was talking about trying to backup. I can only guess whatever you guys downloaded weeks before release already didn't have these files. I'm posting this for those who have the retail disc and want to backup to HDD.

Anyone know where Razzy went? I have posted about 5 games that have not been updated on the main post's list.
Tao Feng (NTSC):
Demos
/cdx/
/demos/
Saves 200mb
selecting "Game Demos" from main menu causes a reset
tried deleting /media/movies/ms_game_studios_1M.xmv, but then the game doesn't load
edit: forgot to put region

I'm having some troubles with the movie replacements for Hitman Contracts.
I'm using the 8192 byte blank.xmv (md5 = a921d321f7c5862d1cf95b0baf0cd741) and it either gives me a black or white screen, sometimes it makes some quiet click sounds, sometimes not, but it freezes and doesn't load the game.
I've replaced movies before, and it's usually worked fine, but this one is stumping me.

I believe he's been quite busy lately but will eventually get to updating the page.. If you need to contact him or want to give em a heads up about your games I believe he's almost always on AIM with the same Alias.

Beware of using the blank.bik located within this link. I have tested it on a few games and the ones that require a valid .bik file don't like it at all and will freeze your game. If someone would be kind enough to create a valid .bik that would be great.

Polarbear, I posted the deletions for that game, and I replaced them with a small valid movie file I had pulled from another game. Make sure you aren't using the one that was located within the link posted a few replies back.. Games don't like it at all. Lemme know what you discover.
Finally, I have another game to add to the list. Hopefully, Rahszhul will get to updating soon to avoid people losing interest in his site. Either way, I'm sure he'll get to it soon.

Furthermore, there were some movies contained in the game that were instructional or needed for gameplay therefore they were not included. From now on if anyone posts a game please add a note pertaining to if the vidz are opening logos/Language vidz or if are in gameplay because some people don't like those removed....
Let's keep the list going!
