How to Extract Split Archives

[Demonchild]

This is a picture guide so yay for me and you.

I made this a long time ago, just never posted it on here, just like I do with some of my other tutorials. Just get the concept and then slack off. :rolleyes:

I made this guide using 7-Zip. However, WinRAR or your archiver should work in the same way with the options being in the Context Menu. (That menu when you right-click on a file/folder, blah) Also, if I left "something" out, let me know so I can fix it.

Note: If there is no .rar file but a .r00, extract it as if its a .rar, and it will extract normally. - Scorpus57

And there you are - done.

Notes

You don't need nfo's unless you know what they are.
A Sfv file is a file verification file that checks the integrity of whatever it was created to check. Programs such as QuickSFV can check the files, and report to you whether they are good, bad, or missing. If something comes up bad, re-download it or find a fixed archive.

Add this:

If there is no file that ends with .rar in your collection of split files, you can open one of the .r0* files in 7-Zip / WinRAR and it will unpack in the same manner

Id make a suggestion to edit the images a bit. The files being of a game in the DOWNLOADS folder looks like we all support piracy. I know the images are old but also the torrent link lmao.

Screen shots of folders tend to compress smaller then jpeg using PNG which is lossless but works well with lesser colors. Jpeg compression messes up text ad you can tell. dont matter i was just saying hehe. I dunno if anyone noticed i tend to mix.

What version 7-zip should I get from here:

WRAR costs money.

I have no clue how to have a link set to a comment like "Here".
Yes I'm quite a n00b. Been many a year since I've needed to make a link.

You should should maybe add an description/explaination of some sort for the noobs so they know what this is and other shiz. Just so that you don't get floods of questions like:
"what is this?"
"what is it for?"

Just thought I would give a hint because it was about only about 7 months ago since I actually started using cfw (not learned about it :) ) so I still know the kind of questions noobs ask (I still ask noob questions now ;) )
