Ice Age [Region 1] Special Edition (2-Disks) Cheat Sheet
Ice Age – Disk 1 [Region 1] Widescreen or Fullscreen Cheat Sheet
Courtesy of 2CL Tool I used: IFOedit 0.95 SmartRipper/DVD Decrypter (Use either in File Mode) Title 1: VTS_07 contains your widescreen movie Title 2: VTS_08 contains your fullscreen movie __________________________________________________________ 1. Create a folder named “Ice Age Disk 1” and a subfolder named “Files”. __________________________________________________________ 2. Ripped the following files for your desired aspect ratio to your “Ice Age Disk 1”folder.
3. Region Free every IFO and save commands if region code commands were detected. __________________________________________________________ 4. Get VTS Sectors. __________________________________________________________ 5. Backup all IFOs to “Files” subfolder __________________________________________________________ 6. In VIDEO_TS.IFO / VMG Overview / Language Menu Unit 1, do a Delete Playback on the following menus. Select and press your Delete Playback button. If successful, your number of Programs and Cells should be zero and (uses VOB-IDs: #) should disappear.
Translation: Menu Intros are bypassed. __________________________________________________________ 7. Select your aspect ratio preference.
WIDESCREEN 8. In VTS_07_0.IFO / VMG Overview / Menu Language Unit 1, delete playback on the following.
Translation: Disables Aspect Ratio Selection Menu before the main menu. Details: Usually, I monitor the GPregs to see which GPreg holds the value for your widescreen and fullscreen version. GPreg<9> was our culprit. A value of 100 would give your widescreen and a value of 200 would give you fullscreen. In this DVD, we didn’t need to set/force GPreg<9> to 100 as it was 100 to begin with. __________________________________________________________ 9. In VTS_07_0.IFO / VTSM_PGCI_UT / PGC-Menu_6 / PGC Command Table, click on pre command #1 and select “Add PreCommand” . You will now have a new pre-command #2 with a command “NOP”.

Additional on disc 1: This is an excellent cheat sheet. When burning with RecordNow Max, at least, in addition I had to copy back in (rip) the VTS_09_*.* files from the original disc, and add dummy files the equivalent of VTS_08_*.*, then GET VTS Sectors, and re-save all IFO's (saying "yes" to the "replace BUP's prompt as well) in order to burn without errors. This did not affect any of the changes in this cheat sheet, and the resulting total was still under 4.0 gb. I'm not sure why this is, but it worked.

I'm now working on disc 2, the extras, and it's not going so smoothly. The version I got, I thought was the same as yours, but the menu change steps don't work, as the number of PGC's in each VOB don't correspond to the ones you were working with. If I can figure it out, I'll post more.

games dont work
i know i already PM you on this one 2cool but before you answer i thought i'd post to see if anybody else had the same issues.
all works excellent EXCEPT the games don't work, the first game goes to black screen and the sound stutters, and the other two games just jump to a fullscreen version of the menu. NOTE the original DVD behaves in a similar way when operated in the PC but will work properly in the DVD player, the ripped version doesn't work anywhere. joey |

Re: games dont work
Quote:
Anyways, I went and checked out this Region 1 DVD again but decided to use this guide instead to get rid of my aspect ratio menu. This shouldn't affect my fullscreen games though in Special Features. VTS_09 contained all the menus needed for the games and of course, all the menus are done in 4:3 (fullscreen). With that said, I previewed my HD backup and found no discrepancies in what you mentioned above. I didn't burn it because I already have a working backup.

@19joey58
I already gave you my reply in previous post but I'm beginning to think we have two different region 1 versions. I have the two disc set. What games on your disc 1 do you have?

disk one
in the title menu you go to features and then you have a button to turn on/off commentary, a button for DVD ROM info, a button for THX sound setup and a button for games. when games button is selected a menu pops up with the weasel with an isicle stuck throught his neck with 3 games to choose from (i forget all the names but i think one is called "darwin". however there is a NOTE that says "games are in full screen"...which leads me to believe they reside in vobs #8 ... which has been deleted!. the original DVD plays fine but the burned dvd goes back to the previous menu and hangs with the sound stuttering. is there a way to save part of the vobs #8 and have these buttons point to it correctly?, or maybee the games reside in another vob and the ifo are corrupt? PS you never commented on the errors i received with barbie as rapunzel..are they these errors to be ignored?, is the DVD burn OK? |

The games are accessed through the Special Features of disc, regardless of what aspect ratio is used. All the games "pages" are actually menus. These menus reside in VTS_09. Go to VTS_09_0.IFO / VTS Overview / Menu Language Unit. To preview the menus, double-click on a menu with a VOB-ID assigned. Code:
Menu Language Units: 1 Language Menu Unit 1: [English] Language Menu Unit 1: [English] Menu 1: [Root-Menu] (entry PGC) (Programs: 0) (Cells: 0) Menu 2: [Angle Menu] (entry PGC) (Programs: 0) (Cells: 0) Menu 3: [entry only] (Programs: 1) (Cells: 1) (uses VOB-IDs: 1) Menu 4: [entry only] (Programs: 1) (Cells: 1) (uses VOB-IDs: 2) Menu 5: [entry only] (Programs: 1) (Cells: 1) (uses VOB-IDs: 3) Menu 6: [entry only] (Programs: 1) (Cells: 1) (uses VOB-IDs: 4) Menu 7: [entry only] (Programs: 1) (Cells: 1) (uses VOB-IDs: 5) Menu 8: [entry only] (Programs: 1) (Cells: 1) (uses VOB-IDs: 6) Menu 9: [entry only] (Programs: 1) (Cells: 1) (uses VOB-IDs: 7) Menu 10: [entry only] (Programs: 1) (Cells: 1) (uses VOB-IDs: 8) Menu 11: [entry only] (Programs: 1) (Cells: 1) (uses VOB-IDs: 9) Menu 12: [entry only] (Programs: 1) (Cells: 1) (uses VOB-IDs: 10) Menu 13: [entry only] (Programs: 1) (Cells: 1) (uses VOB-IDs: 11) Menu 14: [entry only] (Programs: 1) (Cells: 1) (uses VOB-IDs: 12) Menu 15: [entry only] (Programs: 1) (Cells: 1) (uses VOB-IDs: 13) Menu 16: [entry only] (Programs: 1) (Cells: 1) (uses VOB-IDs: 14) Menu 17: [entry only] (Programs: 1) (Cells: 1) (uses VOB-IDs: 15) Menu 18: [entry only] (Programs: 1) (Cells: 1) (uses VOB-IDs: 16) Menu 19: [entry only] (Programs: 1) (Cells: 1) (uses VOB-IDs: 17) Menu 20: [entry only] (Programs: 1) (Cells: 1) (uses VOB-IDs: 18) Menu 21: [entry only] (Programs: 1) (Cells: 1) (uses VOB-IDs: 19) Menu 22: [entry only] (Programs: 1) (Cells: 1) (uses VOB-IDs: 20) Menu 23: [entry only] (Programs: 1) (Cells: 1) (uses VOB-IDs: 21) Menu 24: [entry only] (Programs: 1) (Cells: 1) (uses VOB-IDs: 22) Menu 25: [entry only] (Programs: 1) (Cells: 1) (uses VOB-IDs: 23) Menu 26: [entry only] (Programs: 1) (Cells: 1) (uses VOB-IDs: 24) Menu 27: [entry only] (Programs: 1) (Cells: 1) (uses VOB-IDs: 25) Menu 28: [entry only] (Programs: 1) (Cells: 1) (uses VOB-IDs: 26) Menu 29: [entry only] (Programs: 1) (Cells: 1) (uses VOB-IDs: 27) Menu 30: [entry only] (Programs: 1) (Cells: 1) (uses VOB-IDs: 28) Menu 31: [entry only] (Programs: 1) (Cells: 1) (uses VOB-IDs: 29) Menu 32: [entry only] (Programs: 16) (Cells: 16) (uses VOB-IDs: 30) Menu 33: [entry only] (Programs: 16) (Cells: 16) (uses VOB-IDs: 31) Menu 34: [entry only] (Programs: 16) (Cells: 16) (uses VOB-IDs: 32) Menu 35: [entry only] (Programs: 16) (Cells: 16) (uses VOB-IDs: 33) Menu 36: [entry only] (Programs: 1) (Cells: 1) (uses VOB-IDs: 34) Menu 37: [entry only] (Programs: 1) (Cells: 1) (uses VOB-IDs: 35) Menu 38: [entry only] (Programs: 1) (Cells: 1) (uses VOB-IDs: 36) Menu 39: [entry only] (Programs: 1) (Cells: 1) (uses VOB-IDs: 37) Quote:
