hello
is there any advantage to loading a game via SINGLE DISK .xdf/.dim VERSUS .hds/.hdf??
one disk either way..so no swapping etc
quality?
speed?
it seems like the sizes of the .hds are greater than the .xdf .....better graphics?
or just extra stuff to help load .hds/.hdf etc?
thanks
craig
Hi CraigAnderson !
.xdf/.dim = floppy disk images
.hds/.hdf = hard drive images
Games always load noticeably faster from hard drive than from floppy disk. Otherwise there is no difference because the same files are used in both instances.

Hi CraigAnderson !
It is always nice to see people working on projects which involve the X68000. Feel free to ask any questions no matter how advanced or simple.
Keep up the good work and....
