6Gb-Game-DVD on a normal 4.7Gb DVD ???

Hi,
maybe you can help me.
i want to copy -Myst 4-.
But the second DVD is with 6 GB to big for my normal 4.7 GB DVD's.
How is it possible to copy it ?
I can not shrink the DVD like a movie.
Do you have an idea?
Is there an easy program for this ?
Thank you very much.
showi :-)

What you can do is to install the game completely to your hard disk and than , Use Winrar to compress the files so that they can fit on to the DVD.

The second option would be to use a dual layer dvd , for that you have to have a dual layer dvd writer .

Try the compression program first , it works .

I'm quoting this really cool guy. I think his name was ME and he posted a thread on this already.

On the second dvd is a folder called "common". Inside it is a folder called "data". Inside this folder are folders for all of the six languages. Inside each is a file called "data.m4b".

Since you only need the data.m4b file for the language you will be installing, you can leave the others off of the dvd disk. This will make the file size small enough for a single layer disk.

Copy the contents of DVD2 to a temparary folder. Delete the .m4b language file that you will not be installing. (In my case it was English). Create a data dvd with nero or other software and call the DVD the same as it was originally called... I believe it was "Myst4_2". Done. No problems.
