I have to correct first, the G64 does not run in YAPE with an emulated 1541, sorry, please. Is there an unknown problem of the YAPE here? With the VICE, it works flawlessly.
However, it is remarkable how the floppy disk was described. If you disassemble all the main programs, you'll notice how much was written on the floppy disk:
Name Blocks located
-----------------------------------------------------
Alien Invasion (AI) 105 from $1040 - $7800
Jump Jet (JJ) 85 from $1000 - $6400
Karate King (KK) 105 from $1800 - $8000
Out on a Limb (OU) 92 from $0FE8 - $6B00
Strip Poker (SP) 239 from $1000 - $FD00
Terra Nova (TN) 186 from $1800 - $D000
===
total blocks 812
Not to mention (not counting here) the basic program for the menu and the self-starting head of the programs, I do not know if there is a head for the entire disk or for each program
More like normally there is space on a standard floppy disk. Or was track 36 - 40 shared here?
Regarding Terra Nova reloading the following is said: the program contains 2 loading routines - once from $ 2C2D and one from $ 2ED6. Only the first routine is set for device address 8, so the program will not start at all. The second address still points to device address 1 for tape, but is also the routine that is jumped to reload the other levels. Only when you change the device address, the program will also try to load from floppy disk.
