Compressed Filetypes:


.rar-
Windows: WinRAR (http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm)
Mac: UnRarX (http://www.unrarx.com/)
.7z-
Windows: 7-zip (http://www.7-zip.org/download.html)
Mac: 7zX (http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/20526)
.001/.002/etc. .part1/.part2/etc.- Same as a rar file
Windows: WinRAR (http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm)
Mac: UnRarX (http://www.unrarx.com/)


ROM Filetypes:


.img/.bin/.iso-
Should work just fine with PSX4iPhone
.Z-
Use this with PSX4iPhone, it's just a compressed ROM and should run fine.
.ZNX-
As of version .01, this will not run with PSX4iPhone. It is promised to work soon. It is a ROM with videos/audio taken out to make it much smaller.



I hope this helps some of you guys.

Just a note, you can use Power archiver with all of the formats, I find it more convenient then switching programs for .7z files.

WinRAR also opens .7z files.

I believe WinRAR does have issues with multiple .7z files, (ex. .7z.part001) or at least the version I have does. Either was 7zip works well for these files, and is free.

7zip works well for all files. ;)
It can extract .zips almost twice as fast as winzip.

Ugh, this is annoying. On UnRarX, it asks for a password when I try to extract but i don't know the password

...that's not UnrarX's fault, it's yours ;)

Go back to the site where you downloaded it from and see if it tells you the pw.
