CoCoSDC Part 2 on a TRS-80 CoCo 2 Daves Hobbies 2019-05-23 | In this quick demo I will be covering how the disk image chaining works on the CoCoSDC.Here is also the main page for the CoCoSDC:http://cocosdc.blogspot.comHere is also the page on that site related to drive mounting:http://cocosdc.blogspot.com/p/in-order-to-use-disk-image-located-on.htmlNow if you download or have your own created disk images from any CoCo games that are multi-disk you need to make sure that the first disk image always starts with a 1. Do not start with a 0. Example directory listing:DISK1.DSKDISK2.DSKDISK3.DSKDISK4.DSKNow if you had a directory that looked like this:DISK0.DSKDISK1.DSKDISK2.DSKDISK3.DSKThe CoCoSDC firmware would start with the DISK1.DSK and skip the DISK0.DSK disk image. So that is why you need to always make sure the first disk is always FILE1.DSK and counts up.I hope this helps if you like my videos please give me a thumbs up and leave your comments below.Thank you :)Software used to record this episode is: Open Broadcaster Software obsproject.comHardware used to record this episode is: Pinnacle PCTV 800eHardware used to play the game on: Tandy TRS-80 Color Computer 2 with Composite Board upgrade that replaces the RF Modulator Board & CoCoSDC.
