Torrent file parts
I just downloaded a torrent, pso 1&2 for a dreamcast emulator, and i dont know how to mount them on a virtual drive. there are parts either called .cdi when i unzip them, or .part01.rar, .part02... and so on. how do i combine the parts, or for the .cdi, or what? They should be .iso right? I have daemon tools, and i know how to us it. should i change the 2 .cdi files to iso and try to mount them or what?

.cdi is a kind of CD image and you can mount it using Daemon Tools.
As for partx.rar just open tha part1.rar with WinRar click on extract button,
choose the destination directory and WinRar combine and extract the content
of all the partx.rar files into the directory you've specified

Just open the part01.rar with WinRAR www.rarlabs.com , and you will end up with CDI files for pso 1 and 2. These are the equivelent of .iso files, so they will work. Just mount with Daemons Tools, and you are set. (I mount will Alcohol 120%...it works too)Originally Posted by AmnistyOhua
EDIT: What he said

so i can mount the .cdi s on daemon tools and just use the dreamcast emulator?

Yes just mount the .cdi image and then setup youd CDR plugin in chankast
to run your games from virtual CD-ROM.

there is a .cdi for episode 1 and for episode 2, how does that work? do you have to have seperate characters for each?

I don't quite understand your question but I think starting
with episode 1 and when it ends swithing to episode 2 will
be a good idea
As for the video try disabling some of the options or go
fullscreen.
BTW what video card do you have ??
El Guapo

Sorry you may try disabling osme of the video options:
Use ZWrite, Use Alpha Test ZWrite, Wireframe or try
going to fullscreen.
Maybe even try changing cable type...
There aren't many options in chankast yet.
And as I have asked in my edit to previous post
what video card do you have??
El Guapo
how do you tell what video card you have?

Desktop->Properties->Settings tab.
There is an info about your monitior and a video card it's running on.

If that's your video card, I believe it won't really work. Also, here's something you might want to check for future DC games.

That's what I thought.
Unfortunately I must tell you that Intel video cards are
the worst when it comes to emulation (especially Dreamcast).
That's probably the major problem here. Chankast gives the biggest
support to Nvidia GeForce and Ati Radeon cards.
I'm not sure if you'll be able to get something with your current
settings, but I might be wrong. Better wait for someone who get
Chankast to work and has Intel card.
So that's all I can help sorry, though you may still experiment with
the video settings in chankast to see if you'll manage to get something
to work...
