The adapter arrived in the mail today and this was my first time trying it on the MiSTer with my Commodore 1581 disk drive.
I'm very pleased with this adapter.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Product Description from the web page: antoniovillena.es/store/product/commodore-1541-sd2iec-adapter-for-mister
Note: Only for DB9 MiSTer (SLIM, DRIVE, and MINI). For official MiSTer please wait for other sellers.
This device interconnects the MiSTer FPGA to a real Commodore disk drive. Also compatible with drive emulators like SD2IEC. To provide power to SD2IEC there are two edge connectors: user port and tape port.
Can be connected directly to the DB9 port, but optionally I sell with a DB9 extender cable.

How I found out about RE-AOL: https://g.livejournal.com/10829.html
This is very cool and exciting to watch the RE-AOL project progress.
RE-AOL install files can be grabbed from RE-AOL Discord or RE-AOL GitHub.
RE-AOL GitHub: https://github.com/irBags/Retro-AOL-client
RE-AOL Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/project_p3ol
RE-AOL Discord: https://discord.gg/p3ol
Send me (NML32) an IM if you get on RE-AOL.
Ive had good luck using RE-AOL16 on MiSTer A0486 Win3.11, Win95, WinMe, and NT4.
RE-AOL32 works on Win10 and Win11 in Windows95 compatibility mode.

MiSTer FPGA running Commodore 64 core
Core: C64_20210803.rbf
Game: Galaga v103
Played in PAL mode
The game supports PAL or NTSC
Developer: Arlasoft
Download: https://arlagames.itch.io/galaga-c64
This was my first time playing the game in co-op mode.
Thank you Kim for a good game.
Some game info from the authors itch.io web page:
2-Player Mode
As an added bonus you can now play Galaga in two-player co-op mode. Work together to clear the waves while competing for the best score. You have just three lives between you, however, the final life can only be lost by the player who has the lowest score at the time.
NTSC
The game is NTSC-compatible, however, there may be more flickering in later levels than on a PAL system by virtue of having significantly fewer CPU cycles per frame.
Pause/Quit
Press restore to pause during play, then restore to unpause or fire to quit to the menu.
Known issues/limitations
Occasional mirroring of sprites into the bottom or top border for a frame or two - unavoidable consequence of displaying sprites in the borders.
Slight flicker during the first few seconds of the first wave. £25 bounty for anyone who can figure that one out.....
Occasional flicker when a lot of enemies/bombs are clustered in a row is unavoidable.
Sometimes part of an enemy in formation, or a bullet, maybe left on the screen. This is purely cosmetic and Ill continue to work to track the issue down.
2nd player bullet sometimes gets out of sync with the ship.
Read more about the game at the above itch.io link.

Note from the author:
On MISTER set the joystick to Atari. The OS settings are just what I last tested. Real hardware has configurable IO so you can use any input device, Ive set up the joystick interface with MiSTER to be the Atari protocol. In the OS you can type joy0 1 or joy1 1 to change back from Megadrive to normal. Typing joytest will show a diagnostic
Per Github Readme some commands
DIR - List current directory
CD - Change directory
CLS - Clear the screen
LOAD [file.sj] - Load .SJ file and run
PAPER - Set the background colour
INK - Set the foreground color
VOL [x:] - Set the current SD volume to x - first volume is A so command would be VOL A:
JOY0 - Set joystick mode for joystick 0 - 1 = normal, 2 - 3 button Megadrive controller
JOY1 - Set joystick mode for joystick 1 - 1 = normal, 2 - 3 button megadrive controller
