Morning All,

I got a few backups over 4gb from newsgroups, for example F1 2010.

After the download I am left with a folder called F1 2010 (2010) inside which is another folder which is labelled PTK_FJB, in side this folder is another called BLES00917. Finally after opening this folder I am left with a PS3, PS3_GAME, PS3_UPDATE folders and a single .SFB file.

All the backups I got consist of the same type of file structure.

I know I cannot transfer the backups over 4gb to any external fat32 HD unless I split them up into smaller chunks somehow.

I have tried using ps3splitter and opensplit but everytime I point the programme to the folder containing the backups over 4gb, both programmes come back with no files over 4gb found.

Anyone got any ideas of what I might do doing wrong here??
 
Its each individual file, not the package as a whole

Think F1 is around 4.5-5gb in total but dont think any single file is over 4gb.

What other games did you try?
 
i dont know if im doing it the long way but i just look through the folders to check if theres any over 4gb then using the splitter set the output directory go back to the main screen and press execute and it will ask you which folder m8.

A tip I use is to install foldersizes 5 (avail from all good warez stockists :) ), it adds a right click menu to explorer, so when I download game, right click->foldersizes5-> sort files by size, couple of seconds and gives a graph of largest->smallest.

edit: nzb now attached(says x86 but works fine on win7 64bit)

cheers mate you nothing short of a legend i really hated checking them folders. Im off to my preferred warez stockist lol, cheers again.
 
I've tried to point both programmes to a folder which contains also Assassins creed and assassins creed brotherhood plus blur, colin Mcrae's dirt and call of duty black ops!

I have tried setting the programmes to the direct paths of the games too but still it aint finding anything larger than 4gb!

I'll give the nzb programme link a try to c if there are any actual files larger than 4gb.

Thanks for your time and advise guys.
