Byte editing DSK sectors on WinAPE

ssg · 05:38, 15 June 21

Hi,

I can't edit DSK images, specifically AMSDOS headers, in WinAPE's DSK editor. If I type anything in the sectors, they just get replaced by original bytes immediately. What am I doing wrong?

What I'm trying to do is to change file type on a disk, but I found this extremely difficult in general. Any help on that is also appreciated.

Thanks,

SSG

You do nothing wrong, for some reason Richard abandon the function.
Try WinApe 2.0 Alpha 15 instead.

Oh, didn't know, thanks!

FYI, WinApe 2.0 alpha 15 also didn't work.

Sorry I was sure it worked. You can try wincpc 926 it works. But beware it changes your icons,
devilmarkus has made a patch to avoid it.
I can send it to you if you send your mail address.

Thanks Johnny!

You can't edit read-only disc images (or images within zip files).

But how can you change a byte in sector editor?

It does appear to be not working for me either. Will fix it.
