I need help, DVD Decrtp says that it can not burn Bulletproof because, there is not enough space on my DVD-R. Does anyone have a step by step way to back up this game?

You have to rebuild it then burn it to a DVD-R because it's 6gb but when you rebuild it it should be 3.37gb NTSC version

how do you Rebuild it with DVD Decrypter....or is there another program i need to rebuild the game after.....

Ok when you first click on the page PS2 dvd backup discussion look at the top where it's bold sayin patching, rebuilding games click on that thread and read on try the seach function before posting a question it will be easy on you

Ok here is my version of re-building!

1. DVD Decrypter
- MODE
- read

2. ISOBuster v 1.7
- File
- Open Image File
- Find your .mds file and select it
- highlight all the files
- right click and extract file (I suggest making a new folder - F4)

3. CD_DVD-ROM Generator 1.20
- Create New Project
- DVD-ROM Master Disc
- Drag all files that you just did in the same order as it was in ISOBuster: Examples:

DATA
MODULES
SLUS20615
SYSTEM

- Click Volume Button
- Disc Name: SLUS 20615
- Producer Name: PLAYSTATION
- License Area: USA

- Click Rec
- Error: ok
- Error: ok
- File: Export Image
- Save it in your Folder you made earlier: Name It "Watever"

3. Download gdvd4-iml2iso
- Click ... to browse for file (.iml)
- Click Start
- BAM F4.ISO

4. Now you have an ISO about 3.7 gigs, some say use nero, but my nero wont do anything above 2.0 gigs. So I used DVD Decrypter.

- Open DVD Decrypt
- Write: Find your F4.ISO
- Burn 2x or 4x

after following the cd-dvd rom generator instruction
when i press the rec button.. it ask me to save the file in iml format when i press save... it gives me a different error
aspi manager loading failed...
plz help me ..

Why can't we just explore the Game disc, then drag and drop the files into a folder onthe PC.
Next make a data disc with somthing like "easy cd creator"
dragging and burning the information from the new folder from the PC?

I have have done this and it works so far I can play the game but I don't know if I'm missing anything yet.

Their was somthing like 3.6gb of information.

Do this instead - take your game, and actually burn it, as in with fire. Then send the burnt piece of crap to 50 Cent and tell him to stick to music...I can't believe the idea for this game was actually accepted...and the game was created.

the game is pretty phat actually... im playing it right now

i dun knw how ur game is working ... but i tried tht method to create a data disk but it doesnt work on my ps2 .... was there ny thing special u did beside dragging all the files into the dvd

ok zeezee wat are you doing that you need help on... remeber to explain every step that you are having problems or if you need help with... We are here to help you!

thanks arthur... i m trying to back up 50 cents

i tried the step tht u have specify...
i did ohk till cd_dvd rom generater step
i copy the game in iso format through dvd decrypter
then used the iso buster
then i drag all the files in the same order in the dvd generator 1.5 window
now when i press record it ask me to save the file in iml format
n then when i try to save it
it gives me an error 'aspi manager not found' some thing like tht
i dun knw wat to do next ...
thank for helpin man

Just copied 50 cents Bulletproof used toxic patch and burn on double layer dvd works fine

ok, well thats wierd that it gives you that error, have you tried to reinstall the cddvd, try that and if it dosnt work come back and we can try something else!

I FINALLY JUST REBUILT FOR MY FIRST TIME!!!!!!!
Another good place for cddvdgen and iml2iso is http://www.sksapps.com/index.php?page=mis.html
I recomend you download the
"DVD9-2-ISO $ony CDVDGEN" (Has Apache, CDGen, Iml2iso, and $onys CDDVD Generator 1.50 )
all in one pac
The only difference is i used dvd-decrypter and iso-buster first (using the same directions that were posted above)

o yea another thing that confused me in the directions above was after you put the files in cd-dvd-generator you can skip going to record.......instead just go to file and then to export iml and your all set..........my other prob was finding a imL2iso that wasnt complicating the one that i just told you to get (at the link above) works fine and is easy to use
i hope this info can help someone.

Thanks for the step by step that was written above..........with out that i would be lost
