Hi Tokra,

well, I would like to thank you as well for your efforts and your amazing contribution to this already wonderful community. I will try the games you posted, and I'm very excited, 'cause some of the really looks so nice!

I am also interested about the comment I quoted here. It's OT, but I can open a thread elsewhere if needed. I would like to do something like that. So it's possible to buy a device that can be connected to the VIC and that works with SD? It would be wonderful!
Where can I buy it? There are infos on Denial about how to proceed in transferring files? Thanks in advance for any help you can give!

[OT]
Of course yes! There are several devices which are able to emulate the VIC's disk drive, reading PRGs or D64 files from a SD card. Most - if not all - of them are based upon the SD2IEC hardware, with its own firmware constantly upgraded.
SD2IEC has been integrated into the excellent Final Expansion 3, a device complete with 512 KB of configurable RAM and easy built-in loading interface. A "bare" version of SD2IEC (without any of FE3's additional features) is Jim Brain's micro-IEC.
There's plenty of info everywhere in the web and in this forum of course, and I have both, so ask me in PM if you want

It does work, but it's hard coded to load from tape, so I created a TAP from the two parts. It's running fine here in GB20...
