    Unhappy Tomb Raider ISO trouble

    I finally finished downloading Tomb Raider form the ISO page and part 1 doesn't extract the rest. I don't know a a lot about the RAR file extension, so could someone tell me how to combine the files?

    All 8 files contain the same thing:

    Tomb Raider.mds
    Tomb Raider.mdf <->

    Help please?

    Ok if you have Winrar installed, just right click on the first file and choose extract to... (and choose the location)

    If all the parts are in the same folder, Winrar will find and unextract all of the files into those two files

    Tomb Raider.mds
    Tomb Raider.mdf

    Which are the game.

    Ok, thanks a lot! So, now I should take the 672meg MDF file and run it as an ISO in ePSXe? But then what is the MDS file for?

    Because People are idiots, and have to make things harder then they need to be... Your going to have to make a Virtual Drive to play the Game as an ISO...

    Tomb Raider needs to be an MDS to play on an emulator. Thats why it is an MDS/MDF. I would think that downloading a wrong image then having to download another one is harder than mounting an MDS/MDF

    Err... No Tomb Raider does not have to be an MDS.

    I remember back in the day when I was still uploading PSX games to EP. I uploaded an ISO version and I had to re-upload it because it wouldnt run.

    I remember that as well... But I don't think that had anything to do with the fact the game was in .bin/.iso/.img format.

    Once you mount the Game in the Virtual Drive it becomes the same thing as anyother format.
