Re: Looking for "Ultima II" .nib images

I did see this a year or so ago, and my interest was piqued.
But it seems to only support DOS format 5.25" Disk ][ tracks.

If I was to try to capture disk images more accurately, I'd be
inclined to extend an existing (extensible) format like 2img.
That way users could bug emulator writers to add support. ;-)

FDI seems quite a 'foreign' format, though of course I hope
that one day it's supported in Apple emulation. And adding
an entirely new format seems like overkill.

Sync nibbles, quarter tracks, track syncing and nibble counts.
That would be enough for me. Bit level trickery would be too big
a stretch for current emulators, and test the authors' patience.

Cheers,
Nick.
