Hi miro,
I didn't know about this specific format until I downloaded exactly the same zip-archive as you did.
After some research I found out these .nib files contain GCR-data to preserve the original disk-layout incl. copyprotection.
The attachment contains a toolset to create/convert these file for the use in Vice (instructions inside)
hope that helps.
