Putting together separate rar files?

[Jjangthekid]

Hello, so I have 3 different rar files. How can I put them back together? They came in 3 different parts.

 

Thanks in advance.

you're only supposed to extract them

 

when you have all of the necessary rar files in the same directory, you can extract one and you'll get the files you're supposed to get

Start extracting the first part and other will extract automatically. Yes, you don't put them together in any other way.

What you say is true, if winrar was used to split them.

 

The last time I downloaded rar parts, I had to join them with copy /b and then extract the files.

Seems like whoever made that split archive had no idea how RARs actually work and used a generic file splitter to cut the big archive into smaller parts. Users shouldn't be forced to use copy /b in the first place.

I've tried almost every possibe ways I know of and ended up with nothing.

 

In the picture, look at the top right side, there are files called;

 

kof2k2m2.part1.rar and up till 5. Does that mean it was split or not?

 

Thanks once again.

what happens if you open each one, one at a time? can you see files? does each part open?

[Jjangthekid]

Each one opens and has a folder inside with the files. Each of the.rar files seems to have the same type of files but the file sizes are different in which means that the.rar files aren't the same. Hmm.. and another question, does anybody here know how to read chinese?

I can't, for one. Why?

 

It is a split archive.

 

Have you tried opening the archive that says Part01 and extracting? Other parts should follow automatically, like I said before.

Trying to read this emulation site that has some files that I need, they seem to talk about BitComet, but not sure how to download it.

[Robert]

BitComet is a Bit Torrent client. Many sites have banned BitComet recently due to a major bug.

 

If you want to enter the BitTorrent world, you could use Azureus, Shareaza, ABC or utorrent. You will need to find the home page of one of those, download and install the client. Azureus uses Java which can cause trouble on some computers, although it works fine for me.

 

BitTorrent also requires that after you've completed your download, you let others leech off you for a while. It's a good system as long as you give back what you took.
