Hey ppl. I downloaded a couple of games off the net and I don't know how to burn it. I have a Sonic v7 Dvd burning software. Do I just create a data disc with ALL the downloaded files, or select a few, or add extra data and create a data disc. I really need your help ppl. Thanx alot in advance. Please reply a.s.a.p. Rock on!!!
Usually downloaded games are lots of RAR files. Select the 1st one, double click it, extract to a destenation fo your choice. You will then be left with an ISO, burn this with DVD Decrypter and then play in your modded PS2
depends on your DVD drive really. I prefer the 8X DVD-R (they are the most compatible) But i have also used DVD+R with success and even some 16X DVD+R But DVD+RW are pretty much useless for games on either Xbox or PS2
Hey Mufc_Rule, u were right about the RAR file thingy but, there is no option to extract the file. I asked a friend of mine and he says tht i'm supposed 2 burn an image of the game onto a dvd?!?!? and there's not only the RAR files, there r links 2 the internet also. I reely dunno wat 2 do. I don't have a dvd decrypter either. Thankx alot 4 helpin out though.
2 things you need. 1. Winrar 2. DVD decrypter These are freely available. Just google for them. Winrar will be for a trial period though.
Thanx 4 helpin out ppl. There also happen 2 b other types of files like r30, r31, r32...it goes on till r51?!?!? watever in the world is tht? I can't extract it using Winrar either. Thanx again.

those are rar files, and Winrar should be able to extract them There are 2 methods you can use. 1. if my files show the stack of books icon (Winrar icon) then i just right click the file and choose extract and extract it to a folder i make for that game. 2. if they have another icon, looks like a piece of paper with one corner folded in and a Windows type logo on it. Then i open Winrar and use the the open archive feature to browse for the file manually. when you get to the folder you have to use the dropdown menu on the browse box and change it to say "all files" so it shows everything in the folder. Then choose the R01 or first rar file and it should load up into winrar, then you just press extract button. I have never had a rar file that i could not open with those methods.
Thanx alot ppl. It's workin but, Can I highlight all the files together and click on 'extract to'? Will it work? After extracting what do I do? I mean how exactly can I burn it with the Dvd Decryptor thingy coz there is no option to do it?!?
Hey ppl. There happens 2 b a wierd sort of file which supposedly has "No archives found in selected files and folders" when I try 2 extract the file. It's an SFV File ( 1 KB ) and shows the picture of some window on a blank piece of paper tht is folded at the top-right corner ( Tht's the icon ). The way I extracted my files was open WinRar and manually search 4 my game, then extract 2 a specified location. But this single SFV file din't get extracted. So do I just proceed with my DVD burning or wat? And btw, I found out how 2 burn Dvd's with DVD Decryptor. ( Go 2 Mode - ISO - Write ). Jus waitin 4 the green signal from you guys. Thanks 4 helpin me cum this far. Cya
the sfv file has nothing to do with the extracted image,its just a verification file that is used to check you have all the files so dont worry about it. to use it,just google for a sfv file checker,there are plenty of free ones available you just use the app to open the sfv file,and it will check every rar file to see if it corrupt/missing etc basically anyone who uploads to net has to make one of these,otherwise they get nuked. rarely do you have to use it,so again,dont worry,and dont read to much into a simple un-pack
ALLRIGHT!!!! All u guys who helped me out simply ROCK!!! ITS WORKIN PPL....ITS WORKIN!!!! Thanks alot ALL u guys who helped out. Thanx to Mufc_Rule, Joka101, connolly, hursty and specially steimy (4 the step by step method). Luv y'all...and yeah... Thank-you
