Either use a dual layer disc or remove/downsample movie files on the disc.

If you want to use a normal DVD-R, rather than just deleting the files that balugabutt has listed, replace them with the 0 byte video files that are on that website. It'll prevent a dirty disc error.

you go ahead remove what listed in balugabutt's deletion page .if you don't see the files that listed in your game , don't worry just delete what you can find , just try to play with it anyway . good luck !

thanks guys. the changing movie files to 0 kb worked pretty well sofar. they atleast fit on disks now, but every once in a while i'll get a dud..... so i'm gonna pickup some DL i think. that seems to be the easiest option.
