Hi, I downloaded Dandy-47 via rapidshare from this page

http://www.akiba-online.com/forum/showthread.php?t=24257&highlight=dandy&page=5

But I keep getting a corruption error on the first file when I try and unpack them all (or individually) I've downloaded it three times over and it still gives me a corrupt error. I'm using winRAR 3.71 to unpack it. Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong as I would assume if the files were corrupt the links would have been removed. Thanks a lot for any help!

You have to join the files using a file splitter/joiner like FFSJ or hjsplit, then you can extract the rar file w/o any problems.

Hey that did the trick. I've used multiple RAR's before from usenet-sourced material but they always joined up automatically when unpacking. Never had to do it this way before. Thanks!

yeah, .001 .002 ect files always have to be joined before they are used. best bet is to always look at the full file extension of whatever your downloading and if you are unfirmiliar with it then google it to see what it is and what to do with it ;)
