How to make a .D64 Disk/File?

Post by johnomg »

G'day All :D

I have noticed that some people have several Games on a .D64 Disk/File and others just one Game per Disk/File.

I would like to make my own .D64 Disks/Files.

Is there a Tutorial (which will show me) or a Tool (which will allow me) to take individual Games from an exisiting Disk/File and make a .D64 Disk/File with the Games I want on it.

Regards
John :D

64Copy
Theoretically, you could just use you favorite C64 emulator along with a native c64 copy tool. Though using 64Copy has two advantages:
- You won't encounter annoying CBM DOS bugs. (It even can fix messed disk images in many cases)
- It is much faster.

Thanks Logic :D

I've already had a play and managed to make my own .D64 Disk with Games plucked from other Disks/Files on it.

My Disk works too! :shock: .... :lol:

It is a really nice Tool and it didn't take me long to figure out the Basics of what I wanted to do.

Thanks again
