including the normal CDDA this hits apx 957 MB
a 99min disc holds apx 870 MB give about 21 MB for the booting system gives you apx 849MB to work with
Down-sampling is a must, I may get away with just doing the sound in the SFD movies though, still taking this down by 90MB will be hard to do
I could split this on to two discs maybe, but I wouldn't be so keen on doing that with this type of game, though if the FMV is an ending for each character that wouldn't be so bad, not played this game so I wouldn't know what is in all the FMV's
EDIT actually I may split it, the FMV's are mostly Bio's and Endings
22 Bio FMV's
21 End FMV's
Whatever GO is short for is missing from the End FMV's
ect ect file names
MVENDBA.SFD
MVBIOBA.SFD
MVBIOGO.SFD does not have a MVENDGO.SFD, I presume from a NPC like a boss maybe
11 characters per disc should work with 80min discs (I would need to check that though) 1 disc would have 11 Bio and 10 End FMV's the other 11 Bio and 11 End FMV's
Total size of INTRO+BIO+END FMV = 540 MB of the grand total 957 MB
The above split option would give the best quality if it works that is
EDIT make that 12 on each disc 10 normals fighters bio's/end plus 2 special bio's intro & secret end
I am just taking notes for now
LAST EDIT....
960 - FMV = 420
420 + 316 CD 1 = 736 = fit 99min CD (would includes first 10 fighters (Bio/end) Intro + 2 hidden Bio's + Secret end) [would be bigger after I dummy the missing vids]
420 + 280 CD 2 = 700 = fit 99min CD (would includes last 10 fighters (Bio/end) Intro + 2 hidden Bio's + Secret end) [would be bigger after I dummy the missing vids]
On 2 CD's this is still too big for 80min CD-R's (CD 2 is close but to give room for the self boot system it is normally a 679 MB limit a loss of 21 MB)
I don't want to make a 3CD rip for this game, it worked fine for Grandia II because of the nature of the game, with that the save/swap points are indicated in-game
