Download WinRAR to un-zip the cdi image (a rar is like a zip file)
www.rarlab.com

Then download cdi to Nero to change the image to a .nrg

thanks man, i downloaded winrar but the link to dcemu doesnt seem to link to a file just to the site, the site has changed its url, it is now .org, maybe this has effected the files location. i am downloading disc juggler to see if that will help at all. meantime if anyone can find the file/program to convert rar files to nero files please let me know. ta

You don't 'convert' RAR files to Nero files.

RAR files are zipped, compressed archives.

Nero image files - NRG - are CD image files.

Within the RAR is the CD image of the game. Unzip it using WinRAR, and ..voila. Whoa.

If the CD image is an MDF or CDI file, use Alcohol 120%, not Nero, to burn it.

Hope that clears things up for you.

ok well i got the file (prop arena cdi) to download, have extracted it with winrar and now am trying to burn it with disk juggler, there is an option to burn a cd juggler image to a cd and when i click that it doesnt recognise the file type and closes down but when i go to burn a plain cd it works but comes out as an audio cd, so i used a drop down to change it to a cdi and it just closes down again, i will try the link again, did you merely click save target?

ok heres were i got to, i downloaded the converter program and it went on about there being 2 tracks and when i tried to burn the converted file it got to 97 percent and said it couldnt complete it for some reason or another, i will download the file again as i deleted it, i think it was corrupted, i deleted an info file that came with the image maybe that did it? well when i tried the disc that got to 97% it booted and then the screen simply went blank. can someone post the site name for where the file that works can be downloaded from? only the one i keep getting must be wrong. cheers for the help.

The first track of a DC game is an audio file, and second track is data. So your PC will see the game as an audio CD due to the first track.

Getting a corrupt is kinda normal, I d/l the game 5 times, all corrupt files. If you get another one check out the link below for how-to fix it.

Check out the link I posted before, it's the same problem I had.
If you need help you can reach me on AIM, SN astagholiday

Oh and you use Notpad to open info files, otherwise then wont open. There was nothing you needed in there, so no loss.

Ultrapro are you using Nero 6 to try and burn thr image?
If so nero 6 don't work for dreamcast images.
Nero 5 works fine but not Nero 6.
Dunno what they did but they broke something.

Well I just downloaded this game 2 days ago in a newsgroup server and all I can say is that this game really is sweet. Too bad it's not going to be online at all (using gamespy or something), but I can imagine how good this can be played by people over the net. The controls are sometimes snobbish to certain tricks, but all in all, this is a really good game and the graphics are just awesome.

I have been able to burn a couple of dc games using nero 6. A selfbootable mame game and dcx.
