Request: Create 'clean' 1 game per file prodos images for all games #659

Closed rcampbel3 closed 1 week ago

It sure would be wonderful to have a curated collection of single-game per image Apple 2 games without extra programs or multiple disks. Would it be possible for this project to generate a set of prodos images - one per game - that boot straight to that game for the greater good of the emulation community?

All the games that are included in Total Replay have already been ported to ProDOS. That was the inspiration behind creating a compendium in the first place. You can find all the files that Total Replay uses here https://github.com/a2-4am/4cade/tree/main/res/dsk Total Replay focuses on Action Games, so there are other ProDOS ports that are not included in Total Replay. You may find these on Asimov or Internet Archive.

In particular, I'd look at the san_inc_prodos collection on Asimov, which is a huge collection of individual game disks converted to ProDOS by qkumba, many of which form the basis for Total Replay.

The Sports related games are located in https://github.com/a2-4am/4sports/. The latest build of Total Replay and Instant Replay binaries can be found under two Facebook clubs managed by myself.
