| TAP to PRG. Is it possable?
Hi Everyone I try add Commodore Plus/4 to Hyperspin. WinVice emulator. .PRG games start immediately. But many games (in this site) i find only in TAP format. This is prefect (like in childhood). But...press play on type..load... Not for Hyper spin platform. Questions: 1. how i can convert TAP file to the PRG? 2. Can i download all games together from this site? Thaks for the help!

1. If the game loads only a single file, this is possible by "cracking" the game (just like in the old days). If it's a multi-loader, it could be very problematic. However, this should not be necessary at all. For the vast majority of the games, we already have PRG files, in fact I can't think of a single game that doesn't have a PRG file already. (Perhaps you're thinking of the Italian hacks, like this: Futureshock - in those cases, just look at the line that says "Original version:" and follow that link. These are only there for historical purposes, no-one in their right mind would try to play those.)
2. No.

Thank you for the answer! For example: "Train" and "Train mission" on this site have only TAP file

Altough there is no way to download all the games from this site there was a project a long time where you can download a bundle of games to be run from an SD2IEC drive. You can read about that here: http://plus4world.powweb.com/forum/25397
