I need help!

I purchased like 7 DVD's of games from this guy on the net... they showed up... but I cant get any to play.  He stated to run DAEMON TOOLS or ALCOHOL and do a virtual drive MOUNT... then run MAGICENGINE (which he provided).... the magicEngine works, but I cant get any game to load up...

Also, I tried to setup MA for this, and showed path to magicengine.exe, then to a game (xxx.bin)... nothing.. it loads of the emulator fine, but no game plays...

wteffff??

Thanks

It's hard to say as he could have packed them up a number of different ways. Can you extract the games individually from the mounted media. I'd try that.

Try using Ootake aswell. It's a good alternative to magic engine http://www.emulator-zone.com/doc.php/pcengine/ootake.html

TG-16 is an awesome system - especially if you love shooters. I play GUNHED/Blazing Lazers on the Wii Virtual Console a heck of a lot :D Gates of Thunder & Lords of Thunder are also extremely good and have great cheesy soundtracks.

GameTech:
Thanks guys for help.  Yes, all of the games are listed as game:  xxxx.rar, so I unrar that file and it shows, say game xxxx.bin after this.  I tried to mount the xxx.bin then run magicengine, and it gives blank screen.  I will try to extract the xxxx.bin now into more details then try to run again.

All I know is that he labeled everything with:  PC FX

Did you mount the whole image that he provided with one of the tools suggested?

GameTech:
Yes, for example:

The Game:  battleheat

It's in this format on his DVD disc:  battleheat.rar

I unrar it, and inside is: battleheat.bin

I then tried to mount battleheat.bin with both DAEMON tools and Alcohol... both stated mounted, but unknown format.

Then I loaded MagicEngine and selected: BOOT CD

Then it showed the virtual drive letter (for me was F). It showed it like this:  F: UNKNOWN ????

I selected "F" and just get a black screen.  Nothing happens...

I can't believe its so hard to play these damn games... and I think they ALL are in a ".RAR" format, then inside that is the ".BIN"

Crazy
