ECM, CCD, SUB files
S
hello therei've downloaded a game iso file that what i though but when i extract the file i found 3 files which they:ecm, ccd, sub files.i try to run the game with the espx emulator but it doesn't work!any way i search the net but they say many solution which i see it is complex or unclear for who read it!many of these solution are saying go use daemon tools or clone cd or whatever.i don't thinks this topic is new one but i hope i can have your own help and experience to deal with this problem and thanks

u don need the ecm or the sub file, those are only for u to place in a real disk to play on a real playstation, anyway to play on a emulator, if i recall correctly, u use a tool for example poweriso to mount the ccd on a virtual drive then u go to your emulator and choose play by iso and choose choose that drive, well hopefully this isn't confusing.

thanks for the reply, this solution i heard about but still how i can do it in steps please?i don't want use that or this! i want steps for running this fileah the file that i download for PSX game was a rar file that contain these files

okay, i try to explain to u(sorry if any of the steps are inaccurate or missing, i lost my copy of epsxe and cant be bothered to redl it)iso more or less is your ccd, i just treat it as the same..Things u need:
-Winrar
-iso mounting tool like powerISO, alcohol and etcStep 1: download winrar and use it to extract your files to a folder
Step 2(not sure if u need to do this but whatever just do it): install powerISO or similar tool
ste 3: mount the iso on a virtual drive which could be e,f,g,h,i... z for all i know
step 4:Go to epsxe and look for an run iso option, if i recall correctly, it should be there
Step5: select the drive that u had mount the iso to.
step6: click open and u should be done

daemon tools lite is better than powerISO, which is a time limited demo.

OKi've already down, & install the so-called "virtual cd rom" Daemon tools!I mount the image, but how operate the game in EPSX?i hope i don't cause you every one a pain in the head, if i done that give an address and i will ship it from Kuwait to yours :)

You should be able to go Run from CD.

alright i figured it out with the help of the resourcefulness of the interwebs..get this tool: http://www.neillcorlett.com/downloads/ecm100.zip
copy and paste the link to get the file.extract the tool to a folder. drag img.ecm file onto the "unecm.exe" executable and it will decompress into a .bin or .img file.you can go ahead and delete the old img.ecm file because it's useless now. your game should work after that.
