I tried making them from my original old old old old FS1 discs(yes, I still have them... they're my precious) but disc 1 is all scratchyfied, and it wouldn't make a proper ISO. Does anyone have/can make some good ISOs for me?


If you're wondering why I want FS1 instead of just doing the FSPort, it's because I want something I can play in my room and all that happyness(this computer sucks balls, so I have to play old games and whatnot).



Please?

mininova.org Pretty good dl time, on a cable mobem about a day. You need a torrent client to use the links though. IE Shareza,Torrentlord,Bittorent

Yeah, I've looked. No dice. The only one I can find is the Freespace Battle Back, and it's all in .bin format, and I'm using Windows(thank god).

And I'm using BitComet, also known as the best.

That's FS1 plus Silent Threat.  Wouldn't that be what you're looking for?

.bin is just an iso format. Nero and the like can burn it.

I thought .bin was some compression format for Linux or Mac or something.


And Goob: I know that, I looked at the file list. I didn't recognize any of the file formats except 'txt'.

EDIT: downloading now; a pity there aren't more seeders.

I'm a seeder, and you can be one too!

If you're using a BT client like Azureus, BitComet or even the basic client (though the interface provided for it by Azureus or even BitComet beat the pants off it) you can specify only the files within a torrent that you want. Don't want ST? No probalo, just set the Silent Threat files to "Do Not Download".

edit: This is why I made backups of my FS1, ST and FS2 CDs virtually the day I got them. I knew the cheap paper packages Interplay supplied them in woul lead to them becoming scratched beyond repair. I don't think I've had the originals out of those packages more than once or twice in the 5 or 6 years I've owned them.

.bin is a compression format for Mac as well. But I haven't seen it in about 10 years, and when I did, it was always .bin.sit or .bin.hqx or some crap like that.
