We're going to do a conversion from bin and cue to iso for 2 reasons.
1. Your old play station one doesn't works anymore and you still want to play you're game.
2. You've downloaded form internet and you want to play it in a play station emulator
So if you are like in the second point, think that the game is to old to get in stores so, you must have to play it. Anyway lets do it.
The real font come from this link:
http://ubuntuftw.blogspot.com/2008/02/convertir-bin-cue-iso.html
So, I'm telling the real source.
I like to test first if works or not the tutorials I find In internet. By the way, let's do this.
In Linux you have to do this by terminal, it's like comand prompt in Linux, but more functional since my point of view.
the first you're going to see in a terminal is the UserName@NameOfTheMachine:, like this:
barz@BarArt:~$
barz is my username and BarArt the name of my computer, the @ means that belongs to. Now you know the meaning.
Let's type in the terminal:
sudo apt-get install bchunk
Next, you put your password asked by the command sudo, that gives permission like root(Administrator), to do actions. With the past action you gave to your computer to download the program bchunk that it's function is to convert formats like the action we're going to make.
Now type cd and drag the folder where bin and cue are(If you've donwloaded maybe is a zip or rar folder, unzip or unrar it, and put in a folder if doesn't have one). Make sure that the folder don't have spaces. if it has rename it, For example:
folder Chrono Trigger ===» rename to ChronoTriger
then, open the folder and drag to the terminal the folder, and it has to be like this when you type enter after you draged the folder.
barz@BarArt~/ChronoTriger$
This is the most common way in linux tutorial blogs you will see the next instruction:
barz@BarArt~/ChronoTriger$ Chrono Trigger.bin Chrono Trigger. cue
The tutorial ask you to type exactly how the file are in the folder, but are also for ilustrate you which files are first to type or drag to the terminal.
When you're Lazy as I'm, you can see like this when you drag a files into a terminal:
barz@BarArt~/ChronoTriger$ '/media/disk/Chrono Triger/Chrono Trigger.bin'
Well, now you see what happen when you drag files into a terminal. Let's do the next step.
type bchunk next to "barz@BarArt:~/ChronoTriger$", drag the file as I wrote you in the last lines and then write with out spaces how will your iso is goingo to be called, like I did
barz@BarArt:~/ChronoTriger$ bchunk '/home/barz/ChronoTriger/Chrono Trigger.bin' '/home/barz/ChronoTriger/Chrono Trigger.cue' ChronoTrigger
this means in a linux tutorial
barz@BarArt:~/ChronoTriger$ bchunk Chrono Trigger.bin Chrono Trigger.cue ChronoTrigger
When you finally type enter you will see the process in terminal like this:
barz@BarArt:~/ChronoTriger$ bchunk '/home/barz/ChronoTriger/Chrono Trigger.bin' '/home/barz/ChronoTriger/Chrono Trigger.cue' ChronoTrigger
binchunker for Unix, version 1.2.0 by Heikki Hannikainen <hessu@hes.iki.fi>
Created with the kind help of Bob Marietta <marietrg@SLU.EDU>,
partly based on his Pascal (Delphi) implementation.
Support for MODE2/2352 ISO tracks thanks to input from
Godmar Back <gback@cs.utah.edu>, Colas Nahaboo <Colas@Nahaboo.com>
and Matthew Green <mrg@eterna.com.au>.
Released under the GNU GPL, version 2 or later (at your option).
Reading the CUE file:
Track 1: MODE2/2352 01 00:00:00
Writing tracks:
1: ChronoTrigger01.iso 454/454 MB [********************] 100 %
when returns to barz@BarArt:~/ChronoTriger$ in the next line it means that it's done and its in the same folder with the *.bin and the *.cue in a third file with the *.iso extension.
Windows users have to buy programs or donwload illegally from web. So Linux users feel free of feeling guilty and more if you really have the game and don't download it the rom as me. . . . . x___x aww I put the rope in my neck, ahaha
see yaa
