BOT is on a distinguished road
So you found Winrar, now all you need to do is research on how to use it.

WinRAR is just like WinZip, except a little bit more advanced.

####t up WinRAR and find your archive using the Windows Explorer-like display it has. If it is not on that drive, go to Files->Change Drive and change the drive to where the archive is at. Open up the archive and click Extract To and pick a location. It will auto-extract all volumes and report errors if there are any.

Again... follow Momo's advice here bud. I like your persistance. WinRAR does the job fine. Although, I personally prefer WinACE. WinACE can compress/decompress just about anything. You should have multiple files.. the first being: game.rar (whatever the game is), game.001, game.002..etc.

WinACE/WinRAR will automatically look for the next consecutive file and "mesh" them all together; leaving you with a CDI file.

Sometimes I amaze myself at my helpfulness. I'm helpful.. I'm so helpful, I'm going to change my nick to Spiderman. Because HE is helpful.

Nonetheless. RAR files are not always .rar. You will have a file game.rar, game.001, game.002, game.003, etc. (you with me?)

The error you are getting is basic. You simply are missing a file. Hundred bucks says you are just missing one 'lil file. Look at your rar's, and count. 001, 002 etc. Do you have all of them? Or does it skip one? If thats the case you will get that error everytime. WinACE is looking for a file to complete the CDI, and if it ain't there.. you might as well shit in a hat.

Uhm... I think I just feel sorry for you now.

CDIs are not one or two files. They are between 15-30 19.1 meg RARs (usually).

After unraring, the CDI file extracted is between 400 mb and 700 mb.

Those files you listed, are three seperate games. You have a long way to go friend. And whatever you said about the 143 files... I have no clue wtf you are talking about.

Rush_Omega, each one of those games is going to be a handful (10-20) different 19mb files. It takes a lot of time to download everything you need for just one game.

To see which files you still need, go out to www.isonews.com .

There you'll find a list of each game's released filenames. Compare what you have to what it says you need, then go grab what you're missing from whereever you got those.
