Well I seem to remember a thread where 5 different people told you what to do and you basically ignored them and didn't try to help yourself. In fact 3.44GB's, this is still the same game huh? Don't worry about the game size, wait for it to finish downloading. When it does extract the files with winrar. Try a straight burn with DVD Decrypter. Burn at 1x, 2, then 4x, on good media until it works. Here's a guide for Decrypter: http://home.earthlink.net/~moderator/id3.html

But if it keeps on downloading,it will go to 4.52gb and my disc only can hold 4.35 when actually burninig so it wont be a complete burn and theyre might be some parts of the game deleted or something but should i still try to open it with WinRAR then do i press extract to or do i press add to archive?

Well a single layer DVD-R will hold 4.7GB's. You have to do a TOC refresh with Swap Magic to get it to work. Swap Magic doesn't work with games over 4.37GB's. You may have to rebuild it to get it to work. I always recommend trying a straight burn with DVD Decrypter first, before rebuilding. If you have to rebuild, here's a guide: http://home.earthlink.net/~moderator/id4.html#rebuilding With winrar you right click-->extract here on the folder.

I think i have a dummy file or something because the file is supposed to be only 3.44gb and it going to be 4.52gb or more and when i open the folder of killzone,the killzone.rar.bc file is blue and it says like incomplete download so wat am i supposed to do?And is there a way to do this without rebuilding it?And i am using swap magic 3.6 with slim tool and a v12 ps2.

Yes. Don't extract it until after it's finished downloading.

I thought you said that it wouldn't let you extract it and gave you an error message. What are the extensions of the extracted files? I.e. .bin, .iso, .mds.

I already went over this. You don't add it to the archive. You right click the folder and click extract here. If it gives you an error message, either it's not finished downloading or the file is corrupted. Take a deep breath. This isn't that hard. What is the extension of the file you are attemting to extract? This is important.

Then it's damaged or not finished downloading. Try closing bitcomet and see what happens when you try to extract killzone.rar.bc.

If the file still has a .bc extension then it is not finished downloading. Sometimes you can download more than what the file is listed to be(i.e 3.44 GB but youve downloaded 3.5 GB)....what it means is that some parts of the file you downloaded didnt pass the hash check and are being redownloaded, sometimes it can take a while because it has to find someone that is sharing the part of the file that you need to redownload. My suggestion is to open the file with bit comet and let it complete downloading. The first time i had that happen to me i was like ?WTF? but then i did a lil searching on google and found my answer.

modfreak chill out. Let bitcomet finish downloading then try to extract it.
