Re: .EII files not loading in .hfe format

Jeff,
For some reason I can't seem to convert my .eii files to HFE images.

Here are two files I can't convert:

I have a few thousand .eii files like these that I am trying to convert using the batch convert in the HxC software, but I can't get any of them to convert.

Would you please review with me the steps you would use to convert these files to HFE files?
Thanks
Keith

"Can't convert" what this means exactly ? What is the problem exactly ?
Of course your eii files are working perfectly here.

Please make an archive of all of your EII files. i will convert them for you.

EDIT : Try this ->

https://hxc2001.com/download/floppy_driv ... II2HFE.zip


Unpack this archive, put your EII files in the INPUT_EII folder, start convert_eii_to_hfe.bat and finally get the HFE files in the OUTPUT_EII folder.

Jeff,
Can the program you sent convert .eii files that are in nested folders or do all .eii files have to be in the root directory of the INPUT FILES folder?
Thanks

Now this can be done.
Just redownload the zip file :

Jeff,
That seemed to do the trick.

One other question. On my SD card, there appear to be duplicates of all of the HFE files that just like the originals, but have "_ " before the name of the image. These duplicate images can't be read by the EII and invisible when I look at the SD card on my PC. Do you have any idea how to view and delete these duplicate files?
Thanks
Keith

mhh by showing hidden files.
Are you using a special tool in your pc ?

The current firmware in beta test hide all non-HFE files, this may do the trick.
Problem : it wasn't test yet on Emu-Emulator. Do you want make a try ?
I send you new one by email. If you are experimenting problems, you can come back to the current official firmware :

Hi,
The firmware update seems to work fine on my EII. It hides the non-FTE files, which is nice.
Thanks for your help.
Keith
