rip your games up! save space

[Boost]

I took halo2 and took out ALL the single player maps...... ( BTW- all the SP maps are named like A10 or something, and are all way bigger than MP maps ) also keep the "shared"
now it's olny 1.6 gigs !!! big diff from the orig....
I've done the same in the past to many games....
halo 1 is around 3 gigs, after you take out all the SP maps it's only 900mb
ANY game you have ... take out the dashupdate and live content... good way to put your harddrive on a diet

thanks bout it

how do you identify dashupdate and live content?
also, can you post "deleteable" file names (for multiplayer play only)?

[Boost]

update.xbe
dashupdate.xbe are the update folders you can remove
ALSO....
that should clear everything up

need more help
ask Dr. fweega.. I think he's a real doc

[shiftygypsy]

inspired by my newly-slimmed halo 2, i created a doom 3 mp version. go from 2.2GB to 575MB!

mp-only version (only dirs that have files *removed* are listed -- copy the remaining dirs verbatim):
