Help with PSX roms split into .APE files

[Yabba]

Sorry if this has been asked already but I couldn't find it anywhere.

Anyways, I'm confused on how to play several PSX games that I've downloaded since they're not just one .bin file. Rather, they are split into "tracks" which are all .ape files except the first being a .ecm. I've tried using UnpakkISO on them to convert them all into .bin's, but then I'm not sure what to do. Opening the "track1" bin file (formerly the .ecm file) will kind of work but the game will freeze early on.

I'm a complete noob. Any help will be greatly appreciated...

same here, i used unpakkiso and ended up with loads of bin files WTF? lol was hoping to see only 2 files...a cue and iso/bin file...can anyone shed some light here? theres no guide on this forum anywhere!
FYI
im someone who can flash wii's and burnt hundreds of images off with no problem im no n00b but im totally bamboozled when it comes to burning psx games downloaded from this site...

.APE Files are called Monkey's Audio files. It cant be opened.
You've downloaded the wrong iso files. What game had you downloaded and where do you downloaded it?.

alien trilogy (E) from this site...ok...im getting somewhere i think lol i have unecm'd the image to .bin and i have decompressed monkey audio files back to .wav lol now what? i need a cue file but i can only find a single track cue maker but i need to add the .wav files dont i?

EDIT it seems ALL the psx isos are not "ready 2 burn" why cant they be .iso files? FFS lol

EDIT2 right! iv found the info on audio tracks about the game just need to make a cue file manually lol but imgburn wont burn it as its multiple tracks i think its 26 .wav files! just need to find a template to get me going, i will report back ASAP

i think iv solved it

use this as a guide 2 get u going

FILE "yourgameTRACK01.bin" BINARY
TRACK 01 MODE2/2352
INDEX 01 00:00:00
FILE "yourgameTRACK02.bin" BINARY
TRACK 02 AUDIO
INDEX 00 00:00:00
INDEX 01 00:02:00
etc...etc...depends on how many tracks you have, make sure the index data is exactly the same as above!
by the way use unpakkiso on folder so it gives u a bunch of .bins first

hope this helps u yabba
