What are these files with FLT on them?
I tried searching for some .iso's of Empire Earth, and all I got are these FLT's...

i think maybe the flt might stand for fairlight, theres sum straight up .bin, .nrg, zip, .rar, and iso's out there on the network....most definately. just rename them to the proper file type... if its exe at the end or just flt just rename the extension to .bin , or try right clicking and extracting with winrar to make sure its not a compressed file.

errr....ok...I downloaded 2 FLT files, the expansion of empire earth.
Both of them in .zip format...so I tried to unzip both of them, and each one said the file is either an unknown format or corrupted....

so, these are fakes right??

win iso isnt much like daemon tools
it will open up those pesky files missing extensions, usually .bin, and let you save it as an iso, which is whut you were after...
get it here (http://www.winiso.com/)

FLT is indeed the short for Fairlight. A pretty old cracking group formed on the c64 in 1986 if my memory serves right. Some of us used to call em FailRight tho ;)

danne's right, FLT stands for fairlight, a release group... i've never seen them do anything that wasn't an ISO and it's always in bin/cue format. just rename to bin and you should be fine...

For site I see I was on correct one, flt seems to be a fake one.
Correct one is a bin one as indicated.

A zip and two? The Empire Earth in ShareReactor is suppose to be in an .ace, 498.59 MB made by FLT

The expansion is all separate, bin 258.61 Megabyte, cue 125 Bytes, and nfo file 4.85 Kilobyte.
