You have to use cbmconvert to build a DFI, but it's very easy.

Here is an example for converting an IDE64-fixed game:

Doc Bacardi wrote:
Download 'flimbos_quest_dfi.zip' or build it yourself:
  1. Download the ide fixed game:
    ftp://c64.rulez.org/pub/c64/IDE64/Games/Flimbos_Quest.zip
  2. Unzip the archive 'Flimbos_Quest.zip' to a new directory. You will get the files '!boot', '!note' and a lot of level files like '1a'.
  3. Make sure that only the 26 files from the flimbo's quest archive are in the directory. Run this command:
    Code:
    cbmconvert -nF flimbosq.dfi *

    Cbmconvert will complain a lot about 'Unknown type, defaulting to PRG', but that's ok.
    The files just don't have the '*.prg' ending and cbmconvert makes a guess.

That's it, copy the dfi and the new plugin to your MMC.
