Variable bitrate tested and working !
Re: [Gotek] IPF to HFE Conversion Problem
And here it is :
Firmware + Converter with "ipf" support :
https://hxc2001.com/download/floppy_driv ... _gotek.zip
Just convert them to the "HFE V3" format !
Still the flakey bits support to do, but a huge load of titles should already work !

Re: [Gotek] IPF to HFE Conversion Problem
Yes ! A big thanks to you Jeff , only HxC FW can do this on Gotek device!Jeff wrote:And here it is :

I will test it if i can this week-end and i'll post a feedback.
Re: [Gotek] IPF to HFE Conversion Problem
One question JEFF. Those ipf`s, which was converted into "HFE V3" format, then only work on the Gotek with the new firmware for Gotek, right? Is it possible from the hardware-side, that those files also work on the normal HxC with a new HxC-firmware?Jeff wrote:And here it is :

Re: [Gotek] IPF to HFE Conversion Problem
Ah okay. That`s a little bit sad. Would have been a cool thing to have on the original HxC hardware.Jeff wrote:sorry this is not possible on pic based devices.

Fix IPF support for these games:
Jim Power
Z-Out
Xenon 2
Ghosts'n Goblins
Rainbow Islands
and probably some others !
+ Slot number printed on the second line during slot search with an LCD.
Note : You must reconvert your IPF files to HFEv3 (Use the batch converter to do this easily !).
Re: [Gotek] IPF to HFE Conversion Problem
Jeff, one question more. When this new "hfe rev3" format is not possible to work on pic-based hardware like the SD-HxC models, is then another solution planed for original HxC-users to rise the ipf-compatibility? I mean, exist any kind of other solution in this case or can nothing be done here?

You can read on the hxc web site :
Code: Select all
(Note : Variable bitrate not supported. So protected floppy disk image (IPF and STX file format) file support will be only partial ! If you look for a device supporting IPF / STX please a have a look to the USB HxC Floppy Emulator device)
Re: [Gotek] IPF to HFE Conversion Problem
i have problem with Gotek Version.
My Test...
Garrision 2 is not 100% work Disk2 from IPF to HFE rev 3 Format.
Amiga load this Image and come Guru Meditation Software Failure.
I think convert from IPF to HFE rev3 is failed.
Captive is work and Savgame not work Disk.
Until now, everything I've tested is running.
I hope this give fix for HxC Software.
I use USB Gotek Emulator with Firmware v3.0.22.1a, HxC Software v2.1.7.0 and AUTOBOOT.HFE v1.49a.
thx
Best regards

Re: [Gotek] IPF to HFE Conversion Problem
hi Jeff,
Thanks for answer .
You find IPF here.

A short explanation about Captive Savedisk problem.
For Captive IPF I have created a rev 3 HFE file and then loaded on Amiga
For Savedisk I created under WinUAE an externed ADF and converted also in rev 3 HFE.
Am Amiga 1200 in the X-Copy formatted and again quickformat made.
The image is displayed as empty.
In Captive, you can still not save, because the game diskette must be specially formulated via the disk icon of Captive and then formatted, but unfortunately the problem is that he seems to be formatted and I have waited about 10 minutes. The power lamp of Amiga is on. But he does not do anything.
With WinUAE the externed ADF works without problems and it is finished in about 1 minute.

Die Image wird als Leer angezeigt.
Bei Captive kann man so trotzdem nicht speichern, weil die Spielstand Diskette erst speziell über das Diskettensymbol von Captive und dann formatiert werden muss, doch leider ist das problem das er beim formatieren anscheinend hängt und ich habe ca. 10 Minuten gewartet. Die Powerlampe von Amiga ist an. Aber er macht nichts.
Bei WinUAE funktioniert die externed ADF ohne probleme und er ist in ca. 1 Minute fertig.

Sry had forgotten something to mention.
To format the floppy disk as soon as Captive has been loaded, right click on the floppy disk icon. Now click on Format or click on Save.
To load a score easily Left-click on the disk icon.

Um die Diskette formatieren zu können sobald Captive geladen wurde, muss man mit rechtsklick auf das Diskettensymbol klicken, nun kann man auf formatieren klicken bzw. zu speichern.
