I got these huge bin files (F12002-722MB and UT 2003-CD1 767MB) How im I supposed to use them? I can't burn then since they wont fit in a normal 80 min cd... Any way around this?

U use a program called Fire Burner, there'z more progz that do it also but that's tha one I like cuz it's small & gets tha job dun. Anywayz, u load tha bin file from loadin' it from a cue file. Don't worry, they'll fit on a 700mb cd. Hope that helps ya dawg.

Do a search on Google for IsoBuster

Its the greatest thing since sliced cheese

You need a serial number though

No I don't ... :) I got it off kazaa, many ppl say it has no good content but if you are persistent you'll find stuff you never thought was there...

Good you mentioned IsoBuster, I'd almost forgotten about it I already got it full version (tnx anyway m8) and used it and was able to see the contents of the bin's... still got no *.cue file though

I found a file called bin iso converter on edonkey that might help some. If you can't find it pm me.

in order to burn a bin file you need a cue file. Best way is to use fireburner. load cue file and away you go.

fireburner is best for burning bin/cue files. It is small efficient app and also it makes great mp3 to audio cd's! Sounds better then nero.

serials are floating around ...

peace!

called virtual drive that creates virtual cd players on your pc... I cant remember if it plays bin or iso though. anyone remember? either way, I will check now. ok, I know it plays iso 9000 but not sure about .bin.
also. try nero. go to "burn Image" in the file tab, select the image and make sure file type is all, make sure 'raw data: is checked, change some parameters if you want or need to, and burn. this has worked for me before, but its also failed.

or just take rickio's advice and get bin 2 iso, I forgot about that program so thanks for reminding me man. Im off to find it on my trusty ext. hd now.

theres also a program called daemon tools (I believe thats how its spelled) that lets you mount bin files on your hd, but I am unfamiliar with this one. I will say that I have heard from reliable sources that it does work though.

Daemon tools works great! I was able to get both bin files running with a virtual drive mounted by it ( UT2k3 won't complete the instalation without cd2). I had daemon tools but it was an old version that wasnt able to mount *.bin files.

Anyways, burnt F12002 without the *.cue (one with cdrwin the other with fireburner, just to make sure) and it worked. I'm still waiting to finish ut2k3 cd2. Thanx a lot for helping me out you guys...

look for files on kazaa with the extension .cue i.e. utdemo.cue - they are usually around 5kb - v small , if u are using nero to burn the images start the program and go to file/burn image then select the file with the cue extension NOT the bin file, the cue will contain all the necessary info to burn the image to disk .
Better to use nti cdmaker 2000 which u can download thru kazaa and u dont need cue images to burn bin filez (plus it is more reliale than nero - i stopped using it months ago as it is pants!)
