- Sony cdvdgen 1.50
open cdvdgen select "new project" and then "DVD master disk" (the middle one).
you'll now see three buttons at the top of the window, "volume", "directory" and "layout". click on the "volume" button.
(for NTSC) fill in the "disk name" field with "scus" and "97328", and change the "license area" to "America".
(for pal) fill in the "disk name" field with "sces" and "51719" and the area is "Europe".
also change the "volume" field to "granturismo4".
you don't need to fill in any of the other fields (well i didn't anyway).
next click on the "directory" button.
using your gt4 folder drag the files in the order above from the folder in to the main window of cdvdgen.
when you've done that, click on "file" and "export iml file".
save the file in your gt4 folder as gt4.iml and close cdvdgen (you don't need to save anything else).
that's the hard part done.
- iml2iso
open iml2iso and browse to the iml file you just made and click "start".
then put the kettle on, because it does take a few minutes to compile.
once it's finished you can close iml2iso.
that's it! just burn the gt4.iso with your fave burning proggy.
- Nero burning rom
open Nero burning rom
click cancel to wizard
click file open
browse to the iso you just made
click on burn
- DVD decrypt
open DVD decrypt
click on mode then iso write
burn
then you have a working copy of gt4
