7z extraction guide

A lot of people[lots] have been asking how do they extract files that are split. This is incredibly easy, but for some reason, people have been having problems with it.

Step 1: Make sure all files are in the same location. Usually, I make a folder, than put them into that folder.

Step 2: Double click the part 1 of the file, then it should show the ISO inside. Drag and drop it onto your desktop( or any other location at that )

Simple as that. This tutorial was made rather quickly. I will go over it and add more to it. [time frame very short >.<]

Hope this helped a little xD

i have a few dc games and i was wondering if i could use magiciso or poweriso to make the iso. I am asking because up there you say "This is a step by step guide to making an ISO from a Playstation disc", so i don't know if it can be used for dc too.

[ANBUkakashi]

Yeah, you can use it for any disc game

I tried to extract the file like you said, but it didn't work, either that or i didn't know what i was doing...
I put the 2 Suikoden II files in one folder, and I double click SuikodenII.7z.001 but nothing happen. It just say the message "Window cannot open this file:" and blah blah blah. Can somebody tell me how to extract it please?

With files like that, double clicking won't work. You have to right click the file and click extract for whatever program you're using. If the program doesn't recognize the files, you might have to rename them. Usually works.

ic, anbukakashi, hard name to spell.

The games that i wanted to turn into iso's are dc. I tried to play with the cd's in dc emulators but they don't seem to work, do you think that i will be able to play the games if i make the iso's?
