Help with .m3u's and .chd compression.

I may be wrong, but I believe CHDs are specific to MAME/MESS, so I don't think you can use an M3U to load a multi-disc game in this format, but you can try.

To create an M3U, use any plain text editor (Notepad) to list your BIN/CUE discs (or ISO if that's what you've got). Just add the full filenames including extension for each item.

Example:

Chrono Cross (Disc01).bin

Chrono Cross (Disc01).cue

Chrono Cross (Disc02).bin

Chrono Cross (Disc02).cue

 

Instead of saving the file as a TXT, save it with M3U as the extension and call it the title of the game (keep it in the same directory as the actual files themselves): Chrono Cross.m3u

In RA, just point your loaded core to this file to load the game.
