d64 sort tool
i'm transfering my diskboxes and i'd like to know what windows based tool is best to use for indexing the files in the d64 + copying seperate files from the d64 image to another.
maybe one of you has experience already testing the different tools.

For this i would use the Star Commander.There is a version which works under Windows XP.

thanx for the hints, that list64 is precisely what i was looking for. (file added to db if anyone wants it)
list64 *.d64
0 "TUSKER " -WAD-
0 DEL
49 "TUSKER+ 100%/I+T" PRG
13 "TUSKER PIC /I+T" PRG
etcetera
great...
Secret Man: i tried that xp patch 2 years ago and failed. I'll give it another try.
for managing the d64 files i've found copy64 simular to starcommander, only no transfer. Advantage it is stable to run under XP, a recent version is available at:

Yeah,both tools are not bad.Im searching for a tool which is able to transfer disks from the 1541 and 1581 to my pc.
Windows XP
I tried Star Commander but i have no connection with the
1541 XE Cable.

Do you perhaps own a rr-net ?
Warpcopy is an option, and it gives warpspeed as well compared to starcommander |

Many X1541 cables work with Windows 98. 1581Copy works with Windows 98. Old PC with 98 and working netork = piece of cake. |

@SECRET MAN: Spend the money on an RR-net instead, that will save you loads of time aswell... |

Shake,
if you use Star Commander only for d64 sorting and not for transfer, you can use startup parameter:
sc.exe /nolpt
to avoid startup freezings.

Teh problem with WarpCopy is that sometimes you have transfer errors, yes and with the latest version.
When I sent PM lately to Graham, no reply :(
I have tried different drives and stuff, but sometimes the disk ends up damaged, eventhough WarpCopy found no error |

Really with the latest version? The one which was released 45 minutes before you posted? |

"sc.exe /nolpt to avoid startup freezings. "
thanks Clarence. Got used to 64copy last few days, gonna compare it now with Starcommander again. 64copy has a fast method with F5 on the file in the d64 to choose a destination filetype to copy to seperate T64/D64.. maybe some more advantages..

Your problems might be related to a bug in the error retry routines I have removed in the new version. |

Ok, did some testing with the new warpcopy and everything seems to be a-okay (apart from some strange error messages about an unknown port when exporting a file from c64 to pc).
Anyway, it should be possible to 'put' the warpcopy program in the rr-flash memory right? What would be the best (easiest) way to do so? I played around with the rr when I got it all those years ago but never really managed to do some 'real' stuff with it ;Z |

@TDJ: I guess that unknown port message is produced by your firewall. |

It is if Graham modifies the finalreplay rom, but I think it's a waste of space on the rom, since you already have a connected PC on the other side, just enter codenet on c64, then send the warpcopy program over. Fe. I have a dedicated .bat file to send and execute the warpcopy server. |

Or use the programflasher option in the flashprogram to put it into the cart permanently (uses one bank though) |

Hmm, this codenet thingy is new to me, thanks for the hint guys.
Edit, from the final replay page:
"Since the ROM has a server for data transfer inside, you need to set an IP address which is useable in your LAN. If your PC has an IP of 192.168.8.64 you should set the IP of the C64 to 192.168.8.64."
This doesn't sound right .. shouldn't the c64 have its own ip address?

I would say : PC: 192.168.0.1
C64: 192.168.0.100
Looks better,or? |
