Finally, Raid on Bungeling Bay via uIEC #c64

Thanks to the new uIEC/SD device I received, I was able to get one of my favorites to finally work, Raid on Bungeling Bay! I was never able to get the d64 to work right on my IDE64 and was always too lazy to move it to floppy -- it was just easier to play it via emulation. But now I have it working on the genuine hardware and it is as awesome as ever.

I received my uIEC/SD device the other day and moved my entire collection over. It took a while for me to get the hang of it. The trick was to make sure it was on device 8 instead of 10. To make it easy on myself, I use CBM-COMMAND to navigate folders and mount d64 images. I'm looking forward to this new era of disk compatibility that wasn't there with the IDE64. I do still love the ease of that device, but the iIEC seems a lot more compatible with d64 images.

Using d64it to make Wasteland Disks #c64

In my continuing quest to play Wasteland on my 64, I am expanding d64 images to floppies. I'm using d64it from Kludgesoft and expanding them right from the 64 using my IDE64 to store the d64 images. It took a bit of trial and error but it seems to be working now. I'm on disk 3 of 4. d64it is so far working brilliantly with my IDE64 on device # 12.


The trick to finally making it work was not appending .d64 at the end of the image name when selecting what file to use as shown in the picture.
