i know a lot of people have been downloading this file, its supposed to be sim city 4. but a lot of people are having problems burning it with Nero. does anyone know whats up? i heard you have to romove the .exe when you burn it on nero. but i don't know how to make it work out. please help
there should be a `.cue' file with the same filename, this is basicaly a txt file that tells your cd software where to look for the image - if you dot have one then just look for any `.cue' file and alter it to point at the sim4 image (.bin) but obviously you'd rather just use you original CD from which you created this back-up eh? haha N-joy - [CJA]
BTW: there is also a convertor i have seen on my travels that would convert the .bin to a .nrg or whatever image-type you want for burning with other s/w altho most do .bin ayways -fireburner (or summit like that ) is an easy enuff proggy for .bins tho
No need to convert the image. Just open Notepad and write a proper .CUE file as told in the README1ST: FILE "Sim City 4 (CD1).bin.exe" BINARY TRACK 01 MODE1/2352 INDEX 01 00:00:00 save it in the same directory of the image file. (I assume that "Sim City 4 (CD1).bin.exe" is the name of the image file). THEN you'll have to burn the .CUE/.BIN set with Alcohol 120% (NOT Nero) because SC4 is protected (safedisc2, I suppose) and if the protection has not been removed you'll not be able to run it without a proper burn, and Alcohol_120% is the best application to do that To burn the .BIN/.CUE follow the guide in http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/20980 and use Datatype 'Safedisc2' or 'General Protected CD' in step 5) of Alcohol's Guide. Then cross your fingers.
