I want to ask a question regarding downloaded PSX isos(.bins, .imgs....)
B
Okay, when I downloaded the Megaman X6 rom, there were two files(bin file and cue file) within the zip file.
I'm using the ePSXe latest version emulator.Question:
Do I need the .cue file(76 KB) to play because when I play I just run the emulator then select the bin file and it's ok?
What's the significance of the .cue file or .sub file?
A
The .cue file (open it in Notepad) just contains the layout of tracks of a CD. It is used when you want to burn the image onto a disc. You burn the .cue instead of the .bin then :) So, you don't need it unless you want to burn it later on (otherwise you could just still use the .bin).
B
okay thanks, what about the .sub file, it came with the Resident Evil 2.img file(not bin file)
M
.sub??maybe for subtitle??
I just extract all inside the rar/zip file into the folder and play..
B
Okay then. I needed to know because my PC's getting cluttered and I want to clean up.thanks for the help.

.sub is subchannel data, usually audio.
M
oOo..you cleaned up manually??
B
What do you mean by that?
Loonylion · #6.sub is subchannel data, usually audio.
So it isn't okay to get rid of the .sub file?

Not if you want sound I guess.

The files are so tiny, just keep them all. There's really no reason to delete them (What is 75kb compared to 700mb?)
A
^Has a point :P
B
I guess,
M
haha..
I mean..did you manually clean up your computer without using any software??
B
^No,. of course, not

Another Question:Is it okay to rename the files I downloaded, well except the extensions, E.g fft.bin ---->>> Final Fantasy Tactics.bin?
M
yes,but all the files need to have the same name...
