By No means perfect but now better, but that is under Windows 10 of course.

I have posted some wanted feats to the coder:
* Sixpack support (ZipCode and Lynx already supported)
* 40-track formats support (DolphinDos etc)
* Converting 40 track g64 to d64 does not work properly. |

@hedning On 40 tracks g64 - what do you mean not properly? G64 can contain a lot of things that the d64 can, so a working g64 can contain errors that make protected games work but moving it to a structurally correct d64 will inevitably yield a non-working image.
If I take a working d64 and convert it to g64 in another program and then let DirMaster copy it back to d64 - will that create a different d64 than the original one?

I don't mean protected disks; of course they can't be transferred to d64 without loss of info. I mean standard 40-track disks. I played around with our demo Rivalry, which is on 40-track disks (d64). I was able to sixpack and later unzip the disks to g64, and these g64-files works perfectly fine, except when trying to make 40-track d64 in DirMaster (nibtools convert works fine - so there is nothing wrong with the g64-files).
I can of course keep on using nibtools convert when needed, but it would be nice to use DirMaster only. |
