The #Ultimate2Plus tape adapter does not come with a case, so I designed one. I think it fits very well to the main cartridge!

Released the first alpha of my GeoUTools.
https://github.com/xahmol/GeoUTools
GeoUTools is a little suite of (for now) two utilities to help using the Ultimate II+ cartridge from within GEOS.
GeoUTime
Utility to set the GEOS system time (and the UII+to RTC clock) the time received from a user defined NTP server.
GeoUMount
This utility can be used to swap and mount virtual disks on your UII+ cartridge.

Second part of my attempts to develop for GEOS.
Finished now: GeoUMount
This utility can be used to swap and mount virtual disks on your UII+ cartridge, helpful because the UII+ menu is not available under GEOS.

@root42 @Wintermute_BBS I have original drives (1541, 1571, 2 internal 1571s in my 128D&DCR). Sometimes use them, mainly to back up originals. Luckily they work fine apart from the 128D internal drive for some reason able to write but not format.
But for normal use I can not image being without my #Ultimate2Plus anymore.
True, real drive emulation is of course not faster. 1581 emulation with JiffyDOS really is fast enough for most purposes.
@Wintermute_BBS By the way, the #Ultimate2Plus obviously does modem emulation as well. Works great with CCGMS, but myself use the UltimateTerm software specifically made for it.

Next time should try your BBS 😉
