The Black Boxes Out: I can't see shit.

[Joe Blog]

Ok, I have an ISO of Shenmue. It's much larger than 700mb, so how in the world do I burn this thing? I can't seem to find a guide that will answer this...

most cds hold about 750mb, so it should burn unless its bigger than that. You could run the image in a virtual drive to check to see if files have been added, it may have been altered if the image is larger than the capacity of the media it came off.

Even though it's far larger than a CD? What is this witchcraft? (I got the ISO from here, if it makes any difference)

If it isn't a full GDI, you should be good. How much larger is it?

It's 777MB

Which is WhatTheFuck. The "compressed" .rar is 1.27GB, yet the actual .cdi file is only 777MB. I'm so confused now

It's 777MB

Should be alright then. Is it the Xiaopang version with the texture replacements?

it sounds like its been messed with, you could try burning it to dvd, or having a nose around to find whats taking up the extra space. any medaling you do do with a copy

Dreamcasts can't read DVD's though, that does me no good. I bought the console so I could play on the console, I just enjoy it much more. In fact, I'd really like to find a copy of Earthbound for my SNES, but that's another story. I'm not even 100% sure that this SNES is working...

Yeah, I know you can overburn them a bit and be fine, it was the 1.2GB that threw me off. I don't believe so, it's just the version from the main site that I think is just a stock image. What are these texture replacements?


EDIT: Balls, I forgot to change the burning speed. Looks like I'm going to have a coaster, I'm not risking getting partway through this game just to have disk errors

if it does burn it might be an idea to have a quick browse of the disk to see if it has be modded, I'm quite curious now.

Replaces the pop vending machine texture with a Coca Cola texture. I burn all my games at max speed.
