Most of those releases have had the MDS file located in a separate folder (I wonder why they do it like that.) so some sites or ftp's or channels might have missed that folder and only offer the standard NFO and zipped files. Ofcourse one could still mount the other file directly via Daemon Tools or similar and use it to install the game however a separate NoCD fix (crack) would still be needed afterwards.

try getting the mds files from public sites if you are not gonna get the cracked releases. Don't know if you can install the games with just .mdf files...I think you should though,give it a try.

I have come across the same problem. Usually i can find the mds file in the last rar.For example there are rars from 1-50.Try opening the last one. Or if there are rars from 1-50 and one rar open the rar file

Probably because the mds file was in a separate archive just like Timeshift clone so someone did not think to share it. Mount mdf file only until you find the mds.
