How do I combine files???
M
I downloaded power stone 2 for the dreamcast...
When I extracted the files, the files were extracted in parts for example: pt.1, pt.2, pt.3..
In order to play the game I need the whole .CDI file to play..
My question is how do I combine them??
R
I'm guessing it is a .rar, .r0, .r1, ect.
In that case just download winrar and run the file ending with .rar and it will extract the whole file from all of the parts.
M
I already extracted the files using winrar but still brock the files in parts
any other suggestions??
T
Can you tell us the whole file names?
J
You don't have to select any file in particular, just extract any file and it'll extract from all of the .rar archives.Also, by whole file names we mean both the .rar files and the files that come after you extract.
M
alright the extract filename is shenmu
When I extract the files, the file names which they appear in are:
kal-smu1.001
kal-smu1.002
kal-smu1.003
etc....
So what do I do next in order to play the game??
usually when i download games they appear in a whole .cdi file
T
Did you download the game from this website? It should be called:Power Stone 2 (U)(KALISTO).rar
M
sorry bout that.. I gave yall the description of the shenmue game i have that was also extracted in file parts instead of a whole file butbut yes I downloaded powerstone 2 from this site and extracted file parts instead of the .cdi file wholed on let me give you all the description to how the files are extracted
T
Hmm.Open the first file, kal-smu1.001 with WinRAR.
M
ohh yes i did that
I extracted the first file with winrar than the extraction stopped in the middle and said "file was broken"
and then when i tried to extract the other files they would not extract at all
but the first one at least did something..
any suggestions??
i think we are leading somewhere lol
T
Maybe it needs HJ Split to combine them all back into the original file first.http://www.download.com/HJ-Split/3000-2248_4-10550268.html?tag=mncolDoesn't need it, just a split winrar archive.
M
I give big props to TirithRR
I figured it out...
instead of extracting the first file as usual
I clicked the first file twice and then picked the program I wanted to use
then i selected winrar than I extracted it from their and somehow it extracted to files into one
I know most of the people are confused on what im talking about but nomatter thank you bro
needed the help :)

It sounds like you had never tried extracting it in the first place. Although if you installed Winrar, it would have automatically associated .rar etc. file extensions with it.
M
no i extracted it but not the way the i was supposed to extract the file
the way i extracted the file was i right clicked the file than pressed "extract file here" that was not the way to extract the file to put the other files together
its really confusing to explain
A
That's exactly what I do to join split archives.
M
I think I know what was wrong
The file did not have the winrar symbol when I downloaded because I was currently using 7-zip
so when i extracted it with winrar it did not extract the files the right way.
J
I think 7zip doesn't support .rar split archives, that might be it indeed.

T
