please help with comp file type

[boxy]

just got given a link for phen flight sim via vuze while i wait for mine to arrive, the problem being that it has downloaded as a nrg file and i dont know what to do next please help.:confused:

[est1976]

have you got the phoenix specfic usb adaptor lead? if not dont bother cos it wont work without it

[boxy]

i plan on getting it

Then you don't need the .nrg file. Buy the dongle and then download the latest version. You can't pirate Phoenix, simple as that. It's a CD image file and aint worth #### without the dongle.

fare one, tryed to blagg it but i will explain, i was going to buy dx7 and phen from a forum member tonoght, when i got there he had no disc, so i bought the dx7 tonight but the bloke said he would send me a file share were i could get phen from low and behold it does not work, my buget is limited to say the least, i have £40 to spend to get sim and cable. (its not going to happen) i realise this but please try and help other wise im grounded for a month

The dongle is what you pay for, you can get copies of the media from Phoenix or grab a copy of a CD (or image). The dongle is the important part in the equation though.

Torrent!

Torrent the dongle lol, I know 80 squid is alot but support is needed for private companys like this.

i tryed that the nrg file came off

[waveydavey]

Sorry Boxy but Phoenix needs the dongle to work and I don't know anyone on here that will try to FIX it. They do a fantastic job and are very well respected. I'll ###### most thing but a company prepared to do it's best for a hobby as well supported as underwater tiddlywinks deserves our full support.

^^^^^^^
basically what I was saying, agree with the pirating but companys like this deserve cash for a good product.

i do agree mate dont take me wrong its just tonight i was expecting phen disc and it didnt happen so now i need one but cant afford it for maybe two months at retail price, so i am after second hand one

[MartinH]

Thats fair enough, was gunna say ebay but there the same price, its WORTH the wait but if you can find a second hand copy then fair do's.

A second hand one will cost you much the same. If you can't manage it why not buy one of the cheaper ones with tx. Not as good but better than nowt
