this game sucks to back up i have tried splitting on to 2 dvds like some ppl posted about and when i put them to discs the xbox didnt even boot the game up...
has anyone got anybetter ways or ideas or detailed ideas on this game backup..
Yeah I tried splitting it to two discs and it didn't work so I did a disc for each character. It works great. Just go to the movies folder and shot out the movies according the to characters. Remember in the movies folder: (You can only play as monk if you have the limited edition version)
Heh I backed the whole game on to my HDD so I didn't lose anything, but seems hardly worth it to back the game up using 6-7 discs. Might wanna try this out, the game will fit on 2 discs. I found this guide over at http://www.xbox-scene.com from one of the members, so all credit goes to him and I claim none :o)

ok, let me take this post to explain what im doing now.. since the movies were destroyed by the second wave of compressing, which to me wasnt acceptable.
so i got the first compressed set (everything 10MB or larger compressed at 63% from the movies folder, using RAD video tools.)
now what i did is set up two folders...
BCD and
EFG
and put all movies with the ending B, C, or D. ling, monk, jenzi or tiger in it.
and in EFG folder, everything with E, F, or G or WU, LU, or MING at the end
now.. its going to be two discs...one for each of three characters... and it should work.
only problem...
BCD + rest of game = 4.48GB
EFG + rest of game = 4.44GB
I have successfully backeed up Jade Empire. What I did is start the compression with Bink video compression, then cancel every single compression, but save what you already have started to compress! You will lose all the movies, but I usually skip them anyways!!! Its better than waiting almost 4 days to compress all 3 gigs of movies! I worked for me!:)
