I've been reading the guides for about 4 hours now, and trying a bunch of things to get this to work. I have a PS2 with fliptop and that works. I have Nero Burning rom And DVD Dycryptor. I DL this file (I figured I should black out the names cause everyone else did that. Don't mind the big UNREGISTERED text)
This is the image of the folder that has the game in it right after I DL it.
All of those files are (.rar) and there is one (.nfo) and one (.sfv) file
So I right-clicked on the first WINRAR icon and clicked on EXTRACT HERE
then I got these 2 files
Its hard to see but they are circled in yellow and they are an (.mdf) and a (.mds)
I checked the other .rar files and none of them have .rar files inside of them.
I tried to Burn DVD Image with those 2 files, and It doesn't work because Nero says its an unrecognized format.
I think I'm supposed to get an ISO out of this somehow but I'm not sure how to. Please help me out. Thanks.

I have question about WinRAR. I have a rar file which is 877kb but when i extract it it comes out to be about 1.5G. I got this file from the internet and was surprised at the compression. Does anyone know how to copy the compression settings from a rar file so I can use the same settings for all my other compressions and save tons of space.
Thanks in advance :)

Hey Hursty
Thats an excellent guide u posted, as usual ;). I've followed your steps for extracting the files from the recognized WinRAR and the unrecognized one so i have 2.Bin and 2.Cue files. It's a movie i got that has two 2 CD folders CD1 and CD2 with lots of rar files inside it, and I'am trying to burn it. Do u know what's the next step i should do to burn the movie into DVDR after extracting those 2 folders?
Would rly appreciate ne help, thnx.

well if the movie is split onto 2 disk's,to join them back together you need to extract the mpegs from them,then after that convert them to dvd format
i would suggest using isobuster to get the mpegs,then load them both into convertXtodvd
(they will be converted/joined in one go)

For anyone having a similar problem, with any iso of any game that you try to extract with WinRAR, if you get multiple files and/or folders and can't get it into iso form, you should try this. Click on the .rar file, but before beginnig extraction, go to SETTINGS/INTEGRATION, and if the ISO box is checked, uncheck it. Then try to extract. I found the answer somewhere on this forum(can't remember where, was looking all night). Now, if I could just get through all my psp homebrew problems. Anyway, this is a great forum. Thanks to afterdawn, I now, also worship the God known as Tayo Yuden.

hehe,i have said that before many times :)
what people tend not to realise is that WinRAR can open the contents of the image after extraction
people have WinRAR associated with iso images like you say,thus after extracting the image,they still have a WinRAR icon,and get all confused and extract it again,....-> which then gives you the game files.then its like..wtf?
if they slowed down and looked at the image,even though it had the WinRAR icon,they would have seen that it would say
myimageblahblah."iso"

I know hursty that's exactly what was bothering me, making me scratch my head as well. I saw the .iso extension, so I went perusing through the options to see if there was an iso option or something. It never occured to me that I would have to disassociate the iso extension from WinRAR, hence why I left the box checked. It really does pay to go through the settings and options of programs and understand what they mean, would've saved me some headaches plenty of times. But then again, if all of use newbies read and understood everything, then what would all you afterdawn genuises be left with? :)

open WinRAR,and then browse for the iso
right click on it,and select "add files to archive"
a window will pop up,like below
then where it says "split volumes to bytes" enter the value you require
50,000 will give 50mb parcels for example

that error is assocaited with errors when all the rar archives are not complete
if you have extracted the iso from the rar files into a new folder,thats all there is to it
post a screen shot of what you are trying to do,cause i'm a bit confused
