What's FLOAD 2.1?

Sorry for a dumb question :-(

FLOAD is Fast load, think its a way of loading games faster, built into the d64 image

I am having problem with Test Drive II. No matter which version I try, it does not work.
Usually I will get to load the game somewhat, but then just got message "Insert the Master Disk and press FIRE".

Same disk boots fine in Vice emulator.

Not sure when this problem has arised, I haven't tested this for a long time, but now that we have c128 turbo mode I wanted to see.

And yes, I tested with normal rom, dolphinos rom, disabling turbo mode etc. Nothing seems to help

EDIT. This seems to be some old problem in core, because same thing happens in MIST c64 core.

Same here, I'm trying the Gamebase version of Ultima IV, which worked before in all modes ( default, speedos and dolphin ), now it stops when the fastloader starts.

I found another version of Ultima IV, without a fast loader, which works fine.
