you need to create a dummy file, the files that you're trying to burn aren't big enough go here http://home.zonnet.nl/joeriroels/Download/download.html
get the dummy file creator and make a dummy.dat that is around 600MB, add it last, if you still get the problem you will need to make it bigger again.

ok, I just remembered I couldn't get that one to work either, use this http://www.megagames.com/console/cgi-bin/dl.cgi?id=dc&file=dummyfile!zip you have to change the name from dummy.bin to dummy.dat

hi, I'm having the same problem with up your arsenal. I'm putting dvd loader and the game on the same disk and I'm getting the same error. When you said to put the dummy.dat file you created with dummy.exe is that the very last or the last of the dvd loader files? Thanks.

you use isobuster and put your dvdloader files in a folder, then use isobuster and put your game in another folder. Use notepad and open msystem from the dvdloader and edit it to show your game and the slus, scus or whatever number. For example the first line would be like "\gametitle\cdrom0:\slus_000.00;1" withouth the qoutes and save the changes. I've done 2 games like this and they work, but up your arsenal creates an mds file instead of an iso, so the stuff that comes up in iso buster isn't the actual game. Now that I think of it that may be why the "too short" message comes up. When I've used isobuster on the mds file, there aren't any large files. the game should be 4gig and change. hmmmm..
