I've just discovered that if you take a Vice 2.4 .vsf file and rename it .d64 or .d81 (depending on it's size - If it's larger than 100k, go for the .d81) the Mini's File Loader will show the file in the loader and actually run the snapshot.
This could be useful if you have a ton of Vice 2.4 snapshots that you want to use but don't have the originals, or you want snapshots that skip long intros or want to skip trainers for a more 'pure' experience.
If you load the file in Dirmaster, it appears corrupted but maintains a disk structure so you likely won't be able to do much with it, but some enterprising young hacker might feel like fiddling and see what else they can do with it.
Just a heads up!

Its see it as a snapshot not a disk.
