Replica
This image is not an original. It is based on a non-working D64 image of Wheels 64 4.0. The protection signature was added again (based on Wheels 64 4.2 - 4.4 and Wheels 128 4.1 - 4.4.) in a P64 image, to recreate a working installation disk.
Details
Wheels 64 requires a RAM Expansion.
When installed on a 1581 disk, Wheels 64 will also run with a PAL system. The installation itself must be done on a NTSC system. The 1581 disk will have a copy protection written, that needs at least Vice 3.8 for proper emulation.
G64
Protection signature uses a non-standard speed zone and can not be mapped to G64.
