Just a bit of info....

Ive had GTA : Vice City Stories for a few days now and Ive had it working with Devhook 0.44, 0.46 and Devhook with 1.35 mod...all running 2.71 fw.

The game is 1.6gb, although if you run it through ISO shrinker you can get it to 1.2gb.

I also have the ripkit for it which will get it to around 850mb if anyone wants it !! :)

By the way, the game is excellent, its looks much better than GTA : LCS, so I recommend you make this your next game !!

Obvioully trying to help somebody, not the you that make your self look dumb by posting that.

You might be one of those that comes here every month with a new "discovery" and post about it but realize that if its old and they get offended if someone says something to them. To me your the loser.

Blah, blah, blah. You're english makes you look dumb.....

I didnt post for a f*cking argument, nor to have some lame comments about 'NOT another GTA post'. How are your comments 'helpful' as you claim that's what you set out to do. Who cares....there's hundreds of topics on here that are duplicated every day.
I couldnt care less if it's old news cos I dont get my thrills about being the first one to post something. Im trying to help and if its not wanted or needed then that's fine. And if I come on here once a week, month or year so what ? Didnt realise there was a minimum daily postage....my bad.

ENOUGH!!!

This is a forum, enough with the elitist attitude. We should be here to help each other, share opinions and contribute to the forum.


Ramon, please act your age (and if you are then I am sorry). And if you're not going to help, just dont reply.

BurnCK, If there is a post that is close to what you consider writing, and it isnt to old(it has a name, i just cant think of it), contribute to that post. But to your original question, I found it better to remove radio stations rather than compress it at all. When I would use cso compression, at any level, it would make the entire game chug. I have about 3 radio stations left and my ISO is at 809mb. When you say ISO Shrinker, do you mean the dvd prog??? or Psp Iso Compressor?

No, I meant Yauis ISO shrinker...the same program that was used to reduce the original GTA down to 850mb(ish). It gets it down to 1.2gb from 1.6gb...still not enough to fit on a 1gb Memory Stick but at least it saves you around 400mb.
I never really bother with converting to .cso as like you said it tends to make games lag.

NO LAG AT ALL !!! 698mb

Its still in ISO form, Do not compress to cso or else the lag begins
Basically all I did was rip out the radio stations, padding, boot.bin, update, intro vid, and thats it. the entire game is still safe, no cutscenes missing, no necessary audio missing. Im sure theres more that could be ripped off (gunshots, mindless city folk chatter, cop chatter, sfx, cutscenes, more audio tracks) But I wanted to keep the game as complete as possible, just without the visceral 80's audio.

uhm...
