Help burning PSX games with NERO 6 Ultra Edition

[AKUMA™]

Okay I got NERO 6 Ultra Edition and all the goodies that go with it. I got Vampire Hunter D in BIN/CUE format on my hard drive. Now I've been all over the net looking for the right solution, but to no avail. You see, every time I burn this game to a CD it won't run on ePSXe or my PlayStation (regular, not PS2 or the newfangled PS One). Now I set the write speed to 4x (it won't go any lower) and "multisession" is turned off and "finalize" is turned on. Also the "Disk at once" option is turned on cuz I read somewhere that is how it is supposed to be. I've gone about this process every way I know how, and nothing seems to get the job done properly. My CD-RW drive is a Sony CRX215E5. Now, the big question is: What are the correct settings to burn PSX BINs to a CD-R using NERO that will allow for a playable copy of the video game on an emu or console? I don't want answers on how to copy CD to CD. It seems most forums only tell you how to properly do that, rather than burn from BIN to CD. I would greatly appreciate any help which leads to the proper solution. I'm sick of burning coasters!

Okay try burnin it with the image recorder first then burn the image onto a cd thats what i do wheni have trouble with games

[AKUMA™]

Image Recorder? Sorry I don't follow. Where is that in the options? Remember the game is in BIN/CUE format, not ISO or NRG...

[Jase]

What CD plugin are you using?
What i mean is to make a new data CD and burn all the files onto that but insted of burnin to a cd burn it to you HDD then burn to a cd this is the image recorder

Its called a Virtual Drive. Theres a couple programs that can create virtual drives onto your pc. I use Daemon Tools, but theres also a virtual drive through Nero which u can enable through the options menu.

In Nero (Any Version)

Close the Wizard if it's open

Click
File then Burn image... then sellect the cue file

Extra notes:-
If you get an error (The error will come before any burning so don't worry about CD wastage) you need to edit the cue file and remove any path names from it with Notepad

example edit
Before
"C:\Path\Path\Some.Bin"
After
"Some.bin"

The rest of it should be left as it is

Thats as easy as it goes. Z just gave u the straight away method of burning without any hassle.

Okay I got the image recorded. Now do I just select "CD-ROM (ISO)" in the New Compilation window and tell it to burn in Mode 2/XA? I got it set up just waiting for the go ahead from you if I'm correct.

[Nightfall Z]

use zorlons method. Open nero click on the BURN IMAGE TOOL find your Bin/Cue files. Click on the cue file then just click next or ok on the next window and it should start burning correctly. It looks like u just may have been burning the iso in the wrong format. If u are given an error reread ZORLONS post.

Yeah I read Zorlon's reply above but that was after I did what Jaded said to do. So I may as well finish his method first to see if it works (since I already created the image on the hard drive).

Okay I'm attempting to burn the image to CD now. BRB.

[Nightfall Z]

well they are basically the same thing except that through jaded's method your just doing more work. ok let me help u

well then if u wanna go through jadded methods its just about the same but ur just recreating another image on your HD drive. To do so all you need to do is open nero, close out the setup wizard, click on RECORDER choose your virtual Drive, then go to RECORDER again and click on Burn image. Click ok/next then it will have u choose a place to put the new image file, U can then name it as well. Then all u need to do to burn it is go into Nero again go to BURN IMAGE again and then click on your image file u just created and burn. All done./....//..

Okay I got another coaster. DAMN IT!!! WTF am I doing wrong??? The stuff is on the CD. Its got these folders:

BOS
DEBUG
EFFECT
ETC
MENU
MOVIE
SOUND
XA

and then these files:

CHRFILE.BIN
CHRHEAD.BIN
MAPFILE.BIN
MAPFILE.DAT
NULL.DAT
SLUS_011.38
SYSTEM (SpeedDial file)

Everything is there as far as I know but it won't run on anything.
GGGRRRRRR! I did everything you guys said to do, and nothing is working. The image is on the HD, and I burned it to CD. This is making me feel stupid as hell....

[AKUMA™]

Okay, I am going to use the CUE file this time, but I swear I did it this way before and it still didn't work. Here it goes...BRB.

Just wondering what are you trying to run the game on after the burn

i.e PSX chipped or other methods

also are you using a PAL or NTSC machine

Another also have you even tested the game in cue/bin format with ePSXe using run iso?
