    Default I Have some ripping questions

    I just ripped the cd image of warhawk. My question is how do i rip games into the format that seems to be more common? When i rip, i use Alcohol 120% and that gives me a cd image, but most of the games that i get off the torrent tend to be in bin form or iso. Should i use a different program? or is there a setting that im not using? thanks

    In Alcohol, you can select either the .mds/.mdf format or .ccd/.img/.sub format. The former can be burned with Alcohol, the latter with Alcohol and Clonecd. You can also use clonecd, isobuster, cdrwin and others to make images. Make sure the read speed is set to the lowest to avoid errors best.

    ISO buster creates bin/cue a format that can be burned with any CD burning package aswell as used with most emulators

    I'd just like to note that the slow read speed is only needed if the game includes CD audio tracks on the CD. Data is always verified. I don't know of any Windows application that can securely read digital audio (instead of analog), but if you see that option immediately check it.
