I downloaded this ps2 game.
Wich gave me 7 Rar files (part01.RAR, Part02.RAR and so on)
When I extract the file I get a File called mds and mdf, and I want to burn this game, but I never burned wich has different parts.I extracted everything, All I got was those file aboves, don't I need Iso? or just burn those mds and mdf files?

If anyone could help me it would be greatly appreciated.

I use Nero.

Try searching before posting in future. You can burn with either DVDecrypter or Alcohol 120, pointing the program towards the .mds file (which is similar to a .cue file when you have a .bin & .cue)

And watch the double-posting. Only click the post button once.

I'd just go with DVD Decrypter (as I said in the other thread which you double posted) or ImgBurn (which is the same as DVD Decrypter when it comes to burning - check my sig. for a link on how to burn using DVD Decrypter), you can get ImgBUrn from http://www.imgburn.com/ it's under 1mb to download, and is far superior to Nero in burning image files.

um sort of, extract the rar files, but just burn the .mds file. That file contains information about what needs to be burnt (i.e. the .mdf file in this case)

that's because the .mds file doesn't contain any data, it just contains information about how the data should be burnt to a disk. All the data are in the .mdf file

A PS2 game at just 181.480 KB??? lol. It can't be up to much then, and at that size it'll be a CD based game. (Even if you got your KB & MB mixed up, it'll still need to be burnt onto CD)

What game is it btw?

I think he was meant to type 191,480KB :p

You might want to consider converting this to a DVD as it'll be easier for the PS2 laser to read: http://teammodders.com/viewtopic.php?t=264

Strange. It should be just 2 files.. mds and mdf. Try just double clicking the first one only, and if it only unpacks the first one then you need to make a folder called whatever you want and unpack the archives one at a time with the folder set as destination. When prompted to overwrite click yes and you should end up with just 2 files in the folder. One, the mdf being 7X the size of each of the archives. Not very clearly explained. Can somebody explain better what I'm trying to get across..

like I said earlier, you just burn the .mds file, it'll burn what it needs automatically

you should only have the one mds file and you could have multiple mdf files... you sure you extracted the files correctly?

Sounds like you're extracting incorrectly. Do this;

Open up WinRAR.
Browse to the folder containing the 7 .rar files.
Highlight the first one in the sequence (presumably 'xxx.part01.rar'.
Click on 'Extract to' icon at top of WinRAR, then click OK on new window that opens.
Your one .mds & one .mdf file will be in a new folder with the same name as the rar files inside the folder where the rars are located. So if your rars are called 'slug5.part01.rar', 'slug5.part02.rar', etc.. then your new folder will be called 'slug5'.
Now burn to CD with DVDecrypter or Alcohol.
