I found the solution to my problem. I downloaded the most recent version of LAME (3.98) when the instructions were written using an older version of LAME (3.97). Version 3.97 is still available online and the instructions work when I use that one. Thanks anyway!

I know this is an old thread. But the BEST way to convert FLAC files directly to mp3 format without first decoding to wav files is to use Multi Frontend.

It's freeware. Just grab it and unpack it. Go to RareWares to download your free codecs. Then have fun. :-D

How is that any different in winamp, you can write the file directly into ANY supported audio format, maybe you just miss understood wave out as wave file this is not the case, possibly its because you read the title and not any of the other posts.
In wimamp, select convert to format under the disk writer plug in and pick the format of your choice, in this case MP3.
I would still recommend people stick with WINAMP as its tried and tested, you dont have to pay, its not beta software and its not got a two page long guide to do whats a simple operation, no need to install visual basic runtim or have to download a copy of mscomctl.ocx to make it work, its just all packed into one easy to install package which is free from spyware and naught horses.
Plus with winamp you could say manipluate the gain, boost levels using the EQ whilst you converting all from the comfort of you friendly desktop mp3 player.
WINAMP's the way forward.

I just read the Flac to Mp3 Guide and tried it out and it works great, BUT the flac file I have contains all the files in one big flac format. I can convert that to mp3 thanks to the guide but how do I separate them? Looking around I've come across a few places that say to put the "cue sheet" into foobar or something along those lines.
When I do that it lists all the individual songs and there play lengths and what not but if i try to play them or convert them I get an error message for every song.
Unable to open item for playback (Object not found):
"D:\Programs\M U S I C\Artillery - Fear Of Tomorrow FLAC (1985)\Artillery - Fear of Tomorrow.cue" / index: 1
Is an example of the error I get. Can anyone help me with this?

@ Johnny, ONE GOOD REASON it doesnt DOC FLAC which correct me if im wrong is what the now 3 year post you just resurrected to give more traffic to your formatoz site.
And i still stand by my first statement 3 years ago, WINAMP is also free and would do the audio conversion just as well.
