dan_jc Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 Ive downloaded a few ps2 games, but the torrents arent iso they are a winrar file what do i have to do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The UnUsual Suspect Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 .rar files are compressed archives, like .zip files. Extract them with WinRar, which you download a trial version right from RarLabs (find with google) Once its installed, the easyest way to extract is to "right click on first file" then "extract here".

The UnUsual Suspect Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 first step would be to tell me what kind of files you have, as I can't read minds this early in the morning... lol Suspect ps. I moved a couple of your posts into the lounge, as they were not torrent related. Please try to post in most approaite section, it helps keep the forum easier to read.

The UnUsual Suspect Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 These are disc Images like ISO They are made with Alcohol 120% You can download a trial version, or there are many torrents for this. Alcohol has become quite popular for its ability to burn many types of discs that other disc burning software cannot. Suspect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dan_jc Posted September 19, 2006 Author Share Posted September 19, 2006 (edited) ok so if i downloaded Alcohol 120% would i be able to copy to a disk and they would work? thanks. Edited September 20, 2006 by Dark_Shroud (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The UnUsual Suspect Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 There are issues with playing downloaded games on ps2, such as needing a mod chip, or case mod and a swap disc. I'm not the best person to advise you on these issues, but alcohol will burn your .mdf/.mds disc images. Suspect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark_Shroud Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 I personally have given up on trying to download console games from the net for a varity of reasons. In your case this person might have copied it properly if they used Alcohol 120. What you have to do it burn it with Alcohol set to skip/ignore errors. Now you will need some type of swap disc or mod chip. I've read on many places that game sharks work for this. Or you can just buy swap magic or a mod chip. Using a mod chip will void your warranties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
