    I really hate to be so dumb but i can't get this rar file thing. ok what i did is went out and bought my son 50 cent bulletproof for christmas. iT'S FOR PS2. ok when i put it in dvd decrypter to create an iso file, it goes through the whole process, and says operation sucessful. when i go to burn the iso file there is none. Instead i get MDS, vug.I00 & vug I01. I Exstracted the vug.I00 file in to the folder c:/vug.(That's my HD) Now that i have done this,where do i go from here far as getting it on a dvd-r disk to play it. I see where hursty says use dvd decrypter, but when i go to use the dvd decrypter i can't select my hard drive as the source. can someone please help me out.
    thanx.
    thanx

    above >>>>

    this has nothing to with winrar

    when you use dvd decrypter it splits the iso in 2 parts,like what you have got,and you also get an MDS FILE

    you need to select the mds file when burning,(the small file)

    you dont need to extract anything

    Sorry for the question if its been asked already, but i just downloaded DQ8 recently, and it came in one .rar file - do i just mount it with Daemon and then Decrypt and burn the MDS? I tried both MDS and ISO but it dosen't seem to be working D:

    Hey everybody!
    I might be the biggest newbie of them all, but i don't get anything from all of this that has been written. I downloaded a movie and it's divided in .rar files. I installed the winrar program and I Extracted them all ( 1.20.15 did I have to wait:p) what do i do next?... please write back to me and tell me what to do, so that i can burn this into a dvd+r disc.. maybe some tips of some good programs (... that are for free :p) that burns dvd's? and can convert avi/wmv/mpg to dvd at the same time?
    well uhm, thanks anyways:D

    Hallo,

    Hursty -

    is it really needed (context of the .MDS file) when you back-up your PS2 Games?

    I have a modded PS2... and it works fine with just the .iso file.

    btw - when my DVD Decrypter was running in reading the .iso, it started going crazy and started reading it at 14.3x.. Is that rare for it to go that fast??

    I've got another question ( sorry =[ )

    When you extract the files.. for example, a game .iso split into multiple files, then what do you use to put them together? Alcohol 120%?

    Thanks for the help,

    lilazn

    Umm.. I'm not actually sure..

    I was downloading (sorry.. i should have rephrased my question..)

    I mean.. I have a copy of Stealth, which is split up into lots and lots of rar files.. What programs would you reccomend to use to join them together? A friend told me to use Alcohol.. but i'm not so sure.. Could you please shed some light on this subject??

    Thanks,

    lilazn
