Way to compress to use one disc?

[Shankifer]

Is there any way that, besides extracting ISO's and mounting 3 virtual drives, I could Extract all the information from all the discs and compile it onto a DVD disc or something?

I know there is a lot of time between disc changing but wouldn;t it also reduce problems and save disks  if they were all compressed to one disk?

Or would the use of one disk disrupt the use of mods?

I'm no expert but a few points :

- you can't use a single DVD because that would throw off the Disc checks
- it wouldn't bother mods because mods all use a full instal so every file but the movies are read from your HDD
- I do believe field fiels on all discs are the same with perhaps a few exceptions.

But really, what would be the point of all this hassle ?  It's not like changing discs 2 times in the span of 30 hours is a huge deal.

I've found some illegal vendors around here selling a ps2 version of final fantasy 7. And by ps2 I mean the disc is in dvd. My friend bought it since I never buy things like that but I watched him playing it on the ps2. So maybe what you are implying is possible.

Friend did this to FF8 and he always had to quit out of the program and load from the end-disk save.

Oh, this is a program you're making?  A graphical mod of some sort?
