Hi . could any one either direct me to the answer of ,if your feeling patient ,give me the answer to another noob type question.
I have a psp 1000 series fat .with 3.8 m33 .All loaded from using these threads .Thanks to all the awesome guides .
BUT .. now i have a rar file of an iso game .
All the guides tell me to extract and place the ISO fil in the ISO folder .
When i extract the rar i cannot find ANY ISO or CSO file .
I have found where others have asked this question but no replies .
am i missing an entire step ? do i have to do something with the unzipped rar files before i can get the iso file ?
ANY help would be greatly appreciated .
If it was a rar, you tried to unrar it and got something other than another rar (games can be doube rar ed) or and iso then the fole is corrupt. I have had a few of these from torrent sites - I got another 6 files with no extension, I tried adding .rar .zip but to no avail, try a different download!
I thought I had a similar problem. It could be your computers settings. I unzipped/Rared Batman and got what looked like a WinRar file and unrared it again and again and could not find a recongnizable file. So I too the first Unrared File and put in in the ISO folder and all was good game ran fine. The pictures below are what it looked like to me.
This is the main folder
This is what I got when in unrared the file. I placed this in the ISO folder and the game worked.
Thank you to all for the replies .
Yes that was the case .. after rebuilding the iso and ending up with a rar again .. i tried rebuilding it as a cso ,- did so and loaded it to the ISO folder on my memory stick and "presto" the boy is now hard at play *grins*
Thank you again to all the guides on this site that have taken me from knowing nothing about my 14 year olds psp, through to installing CWF
and playing backed up games in ISO . excellent !
Yeah, WinRAR likes to associate with .iso files because it can open them, and because it's associated with a program, Windows (at default) doesn't give extensions to known file types.
What i do is tell it to show extensions for known file types, so even if a program goes ahead and associates itself with something i don't want it to, i still know the format of every file.
You can do this by opening up any folder and going into Folder Options (i have Windows 7 now and it's a bit different to older ones...), View, and untick "Hide extensions for known file types".
