I downloaded this via bittorrent, and it all seems to be in place, but i'm not sure how to get it on to cd and install it. It's not a bin or iso file, just 44 separate files, each numbered and a single SFV file (whatever that is)

How do I get this to work? NFO just says "extract the archives and burn the .cue file" but i can't see how to extract these files as they don't appear to be a recognised file type, and there isn't a cue file! :huh: :huh:

The .sfv file you don't need - it just checks the file is not corrupt, although with Bit Torrent it should never be.

Extract the first numbered file (i.e xxxx.001) with WinRar and you should get a bin and cue for the first disc. Do the same with the second CD and you're done.

edit: And let us know what the game's like, I was wondering about that one ;)

Mmm...well that doesn't seem to work. Winrar says that i need to begin extraction from an earlier volume, but i've tried nearly everyone of the 44 files with no luck. I can see the bin and cue in the 001 file, but it won't extract for some reason. Any ideas? :(

You can get it here;

http://www.suprnova.org

If you've installed bittorrent you just click on the file and select where to save it and that's it...

If anyone can tell me how to get Postal 2 working that would be much appreciated... :)

i have it working. open winrar, go to the directory with the .001 .002 .003 etc files - just highlight the .001 file and click extract at the top - will create .bin and .cue.

simple as that.

I can&#39;t get Postal 2 to work. I&#39;ve tried extracting it via winrar, but it keeps saying same thing. I can&#39;t figure this out. I&#39;ve tried it every which way but with no luck. What am i doing wrong? I assume if other people have got this exact same version it should work, so what is going on here? I&#39;m not stupid. I&#39;ve done this kind of thing before&#33; I&#39;ve deleted it and am downloading again. FOR F**KS SAKE&#33;&#33; :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry:

Try using WinAce. That&#39;s what I used. Maybe that&#39;ll make a difference.
