    How do I make a backup of my Brand spanking new Tiberian Sun game?

    657 MB, won't fit onto a cd.. sad.gif

    any ideas?

    Also, I tried removing DirectX from the folder tree, but although it reduced the size of the disk by 20Mb, it installed fine, but when it came to playing, it didn't recognise the disk. (i named the disks TS1 and TS2, but it wouldn't name them Ts1 and Ts2 like the originals.. could this be it?)

    Thank you!

    J.

    Why dont you download it from www.kopykatz.com ...its just over 120 megs or so zipped.....then just burn it and reinstall it from CD whenever you like.

    Try http://www.gamecopyworld.com for all your backup needs.
    And remember buy from the states if you can since its legal to make backups there, so theres less copy protection, or so I've heard.

    If you bought it, then you won't be able to copy it. Only two people will be able to play with the CD's as duplicate serial numbers shut the game down.

    You did have to type in a 15 digit code to get the game to work, right?

    You'll need to overburn the CD.

    And I just happen to have an "evaluation" copy winging it's way to me on Monday....
