Apple II NIB Files

Post by Barawitzka »

Hi all,
all my Apple NIB Files will be reported under HxCFloppyEmulator 2.0.22.0 as 2 sides Floppy. But they are only 1 sided. Trying to work with this images under hxc2001 failed. The same image converted as a *.do Image works as 1 sided Floppy shown in HxCFloppyEmulator.
What is going wrong?
I have some nib files which i cannot converts to *HxCFloppyEmulator.do because of different volume number. A *.2mg could help but isn't supported yet.
What can I do?

Regards Michael

Hi Jeff,
thank you for answering.
No i do not have a hddd A2 board. I'm working with an EHRING FDC. This FDC has an Shugart Bus.
A *.do image exported to *.hfe works with the hxc2001 without any Problem.
Track RPM : 283 RPM - Bitrate : 250000 bit/s
Track format : APPLEII_GCR2_ENCODING
Track len : 106016 cells
Number of side : 1
Interface mode: GENERIC_SHUGART_DD_FLOPPYMODE - Shugart Interface


The same contents with a image with nib:
Track RPM : 300 RPM - Bitrate : 250000 bit/s
Track format : TYCOM_FM_ENCODING
Track len : 106496 cells
Number of side : 2
Interface mode: GENERIC_SHUGART_DD_FLOPPYMODE - Shugart Interface
I believe the problem is the number of side 2.

Hi Jeff,
the *.do works perfectly. But I have some *.nib files with different volume numbers.
So I try to get them working with hxc2001.
On the emulator Applewin these nib files works too.
