Has anyone made a backup of Champions of Norrath?

I tried but this sucker is huge! Too big to fit on a disc according to Nero. File size is around 8,000 megs. Is there a compression technique that can used for this monster?

It has been done by the same people who ripped Xenosaga.

It is done with 2 dvd5 disks with save points carried across.

These guys are clever and I dont think they used commercial ripping software.

wonder if they got a rip kit for that that they would share with us

They wont share it with anyone. But I know that some of the rippers at Alucard will reverse engineer their way to making a kit.

Champions is a pretty great game, and I'm sure it's killer online. However, it feels exactly like Baldur's Gate rather than having a feel of it's own.

A rip kit is a kit with all the necessary tools that you need to rebuild an original ps2 game. Usually intended to make a larger ps2 game smaller.

Interesting....

Despite some lesser groups claim that this game can fit on 1DVD fully with nothing ripped, this is IMPOSSIBLE. Theres simply too much data for this massive game, their version will eventually freeze as layer1 data wasnt present on their disc. I guess dvd2one cant save ya

After bringing the scene its first DVD9 rip with Xenosaga, were here with another innovative first. This game was originally a DVD9 and weve managed to spread this across 2 DVDs with NOTHING missing.
