My kids are totally digging all the classic arcade games. I'm learning so much its amazing! They are really wanting me to build a cabinet now. Still having troubles with finding and figuring out the correct ROMs and Bios files. Can't get a few games going quite yet. This thread helped answer a lot after I downloaded only the .7z.001. I wanted to see the ROMs inside it and pull out a handful. Maybe that isn't the best option now.
Thanks again! This site is awesome! I'd love to learn now to run all the old Atari 2600 and NES games congruently. Still afraid to do that. Not sure if its even possible to put all those into a cabinet with a simple menu select. So many questions..

Posted: Mon Oct 10, 2022 2:51 pmHello,
When I download a ROM supposed to have a .zip extension, what I get instead is a bunch of .f8, .e6, .a1 files which are useless on my system. I can't figure out what to do to get a .zip file.
The only extension which will work on my system is a ZIP extension. Anyone can help me please?

Which system or emulator are you trying to download? In general any ZIP that is slip up into multiple files (due to single file restrictions) will have a number after them. You therefore need all parts of that file in order to unzip or unpack it. Unless you have all of it, you will not be able to unzip any of it.
Hope this helps.
