.T64 files?

[Dauber]

Is there any way to run a .T64 file on a real Commodore 64? I have a bunch of these. I know there's a way to convert them to .D64, but that's not totally reliable. I have a SD2IEC but that's only .D64-compatible. Is there a similar device that will work with .T64s?

You can't save to those digital tape devices right?

 

Just wondering.

No, not possible as far as I know.

I've not had any problems converting T64 to D64 with DirMaster over the years... in fact I can't think of anything that would cause problems since T64 doesn't have any support for file protection or other things that could bork the process?
