OK. I am a proffesional when it comes to burning PS2 games and overall PS2 modding, but now, i am about to burn my first CD game. So i have questions.

Does it really matter what kind of discs i use? (like in DVD)

Are sony 700 MB CD-R good?

Ok, i'll fill you in.

I downloaded Resident Evil 2 for the PS1. Now, it wasn't an ISO, it was CCD file,IMG image, and a SUB file. What am i suppose to do with these? how do i burn them? which program do i use? Can i burn them do a DVD? (i have 700 MB Sony CD-Rs)

Sony CDs should do fine. There's not much difference when ti comes to CDs.. People have reported finding Verbatim to be using CMC Mag CDs or something similar.


As for your file extensions.. The three file types you have are in fact the three files you get as a result of making a CD Image with CloneCD. I reccomend downloading and burning them back to CD with that..

FYI, the aD Glossary explains all this..

Apparently you're not too pro when it comes to searching, eh? ;-)

~Edit~
I don't reccomend burning them to a DVD as it won't work. There are steps you can take to patch games accross to CD or something.. hursty wrote a guide on it if you're interested.

Didn't work. I burned the CCD file to the disc at 1-8x speed (i think it was around 8x because that was the minimum). My crystal chip 2.0 SLE DID recognize it as a PS1 game, but when i tried to load it up (in either Minimal or Enhanced modes) it just went to a black screen and didn't boot.

You need to burn it faster than that. Cds like to be burnt faster than DVDs. Try 16-32x for now.

I used clone CD and burned at 16x. Though i think it burned at 8x... anyway, i'm not dangering any more discs. I'll just go buy the Cube version.
