Just Signed Up And Downloaded A Mag...so How Do I View It?

[Square1994]

I just downloaded an EGM (10/93) issue part2 (part1 froze while downloading) so how do I view it...? I looked at the FAQ and didn't see any mention of how to view it after downloading. So I downloaded the file and it said something about needing an NFO viewer so I downloaded DAMN NFO to view it but it seems to be just an ASCII viewer and that's all it displays is the table of contents in ASCII format.

I must be missing something obvious. How do I view the magazine? I guess I'm a newbie at this...

Well, if it's a 2 part rar you've downloaded you certainly will need both rars.

Extract from part 1 and the 2nd one will be unpacked automatically.

Once you have the nfo and CBR or CBZ file you will be able to view the nfo with your txt file editor. (Notepad)

As for the CBR or CBZ, I'm guessing you're on windows.

If so you'll need do download either CDisplay or ComicRack, both of which are free programs.

Once one of these programs is installed, double-clicking the CBR/CBZ file should open it with the program.

If not set the CBR/CBZ to be opened with either ComicRack or CDisplay.

Hey thanks. I got it working by just downloaded the whole thing together and using ComicRack.

Everything's working fine so far, thanks for the help.

No problem. Glad I could help out.
