There isn't anything you could remove from the ISO that drops it below 1GB is there? *wishful thinking*

You could try to replace the video files with dummy's?

How? I've tried doing it before but I could never figure out how to do it.

From a guide:
Step 6 - Movies

Unlike music you cant replace movies with 0kb files. The game requires there to be an actual video in place. Rather than dummying with 0kb files you will need take a small (.pmf) movie that actually works with the PSP. Just copy the video, rename it as one of the larger movies and replace. A good choice for a working (.pmf) movie is the one that is usually found within the PSP_GAME folder.

You could use a program that can open iso files and let you modify them or use UMDGen 4.0
I know umdgen let's you select videos and let you rightclick them to select "dummy". but i've never used that functions so i don't know if it's any good.
But you could always try.

Yeah, the movies and the music is what possibly makes up a good 2/3 of the game or so. Because from what I can see from the screen..there are a lot of cutscenes..whats the file size when converted to a CSO?

Yeah I just found that guide. I looked into it but could never find how, but the term "dummies" is what made it appear in the search. Yay google! There might be hope for me afterall!

I read somewhere 1.2GB. Close but not quite enough.

Here's a dummy PMF file but you have to register.

Alright, i found something usefull for you.
Get UMDGen here.
Open the iso and go to PSP_GAME > USRDIR > DATA > MOVIE
There, select whatever movie you want to use for dummying the rest.
Rightclick that file and select the option ; File relinker > use selected file as source.
Now, select all the other files but make sure you deselect the XML file.
Rightclick on one on the files with everything selected and choose the option > file relinker > relink to 'filenamehere.pmf'
that should bring it back enough for you if you selected a small enough video as source.

If you use ANOTHER_EPISODE.PMF it should come down to 720.80MB

 

[Gaisuto]

The ending cutscene of the game is the largest out of them all, 141MB o.o
YES! Keeping in the opening/ending/some named Cutscenes (Another Story, COSMOS something...) I managed to get it at 950! Woo!
As long as I can get my satisfaction ending

 

[Raika]

What's the original size of the game?

 

[DBlaze]

What's the original size of the game?

The exact size:
1.584.768 kB
Or simply put it:
1.51GB

 

[Gaisuto]

What's the original size of the game?

I had to drop it another 50, spoke too soon. Got it to fit at 897MB! And the opening/endings are intact.

The original game is 1.5GB, 1.2GB compressed.

SUCCESS! IT LOADS! Thanks so much for the lead for the guide and the file guys!

 

[Noitora]

GAHAGHAHAH just finished downloading it, IM LAUGHING AT YO FACE NAO NOOB!

I'm too hyped about the game, bye gbatemp, see you in a year or so, dunno how much the game will last.

 

[nIxx]

DBlaze´s method should work (i ripped a few PSP ISO´s) but i would say the easiest and best way is to buy a 2 GB MC

 

[Raika]

Noooo i think i should download the 7 part instead of 3 part link...

Still at 1/3, but the timer keeps increasing!!!

If you're downloading from the site I think you are, the links are exchangeable between uploads from RS and MU.

 

[Raika]

Yeah, but rapidshare doesnt work for me, even when i havent downloaded in ages it says im downloading something lol.

 

[Gaisuto]

Okay. Someone tell me how to play this. I've done four fights in Quick Battle and I am getting my shit wrecked. Horribly. To the point where this is more aggravating than fun.

**Okay. Nevermind. Figured it out. It was a mix of Cecil sucks, Tidus is overpowered. I switched the two around and Cecil didn't stand a chance.
This BP attacks thing is gonna take a while to get used to. And I'm not completely sure what triggered the EX Attack. Not complaining though.
