+++ PSP ISO/CSO Smallest Size List +++

I have just made a working CSO of Star Wars Battlefront 2. Its 188mb big, and as far as tested works (I'm going to check on every level, as every team, on the 2 difficulties, and if I find an error I will post again.)

If this works with everything I will post what I removed/reduced to 0 bytes... If this works, it could be reduced more, because some files almost exactly the same as what I reduced I left alone.

So yeah, all going well Star Wars should be small enough to fit on a 256mb card soon.

On the link for the MaxConsole page it said that they got Lumines down to 64 MB.

 

Ok, for anyone interested in getting Star Wars down really low, I've tested most levels (although it got slightly annoying, so I've not done them all yet).

To make the file as small as this, download UMDGen, and then dump Star Wars using whatever software. If the file is saved as an ISO, unpack it, and then download the help file I just uploaded to my website - http://www.freewebs.com/darkmessiah/StrinkStarwars.txt - if you need to e-mail me for whatever reason, you will find my e-mail on there too.

 

didnt really like starwars battlefront i would love to see republic commando for psp thoughbut thanks for your input to this thread

 

I have firmware 1.5 and devhook 4.6. My father bought me Socom:FTB for xmas, but it won't boot up, it says I need firmware 2.0 or something close to that. Is there a way of tricking it so I can play this game? I feel really bad that he spent the money and I can't get it to work. Any advice would be great. Thanks guys.

 

if you have devhook you can use it to switch to 2.71

 

Hi guys, just wondering about the different compression mode.

i have sonic.iso = 234Mo, then if i use umdgen4 i can chnage it to cso and dax.

sonic.cso=121Mo
sonic.dax=116Mo

What is the tradeoff to go from iso to cso for example?

finally when i compress from iso to cso or dax they asking me between 1-9, i chose 9 but i don't know what to chose.

Thx

 

well the easiest way to say is that cso is a converted iso that converts but doesnt really hack into speed but dax does that therefore it will always have less memory then a cso

 

so i can pretty much alway convert my .iso to a .cso.

but which compression level do i need to set? between 1 to 9?

thx

 

9

 

Thanks for the quick reply BlkMagic. Will I be able to go back alright? I don't want to change my PSP at all. Sorry if that's a stupid question.

 

just do a hard boot and you will be able to go back

 

yeah just press home and then start, it wll reboot to your original firmware.

 

you mean when I'm done playing it to just turn the power off and turn it back on and I'll be back at fw1.5?

 

hey, just for general knowledge, I heard that MGSO only went down to 957MB when compressed, but I got it down to 842MB.

I can't get the ripkit for me and my katamari to work, any idea why it keeps crashing? Anyone else have that problem?

 

i have 3 isos that i have on my computer that will not work with any of the ripkits mentioned. i have wwe svr2007, lego star wars II, and gta vcs. all of these isos are the originals and have not been tamperd with. if the program does not get an error from windows, the program will say the iso is finished at 1kb. any help?

 

I've now gotten Untold Legends BOTB down to 168mb, and Wipeout Pure down to 164mb, I've tested Wipeout and it all works fine, even though it seems to crash the 1st time its played, but every time after that it works perfect (could just be SE-B?).

Untold Legends I've got to test, but I don't much feel like playing it right at the moment, so when I've tested that I will yet again put a .txt document on my website of what to delete and so on.

Ok, BOTB works, so I've uploaded a guide for both BOTB and Wipeout.

Remember that I've packaged into CSO, not ISO.

BOTB - http://www.freewebs.com/darkmessiah/ShrinkUntoldLegendsBOTB.txt

Also, just to note, I do have plans for some larger games to be shrank, but thats only as soon as I get a bigger memory card and can actually fit them on for testing, if anyone wishes to donate a 1/2gb card, be my guest

(Edited due to stray hash -.-)

 

does anyone know how to get to get the bboy game that is 377 mb because mine is 850 mb.....

 

rip it manually by taking the update, etc.
