X-Copy Like App for Creating ADFs?

[manic23]

Sorry if this has been discussed before, I'd bet my bottom dollar it has, but I cant find anything.

I'd like to know if there is an X-Copy type application for Amiga that creates ADF files from protected disks rather than simply copying to another disk.

Does such an animal exist?

powercopy 3.07 cracked by stingray

It gives control over the syncwords used on each tracks, and allow to write a disk as track files in a folder.
For which game do you need that ?

Thanks dlfrsilver I'll try to find that now. I have lots of boxed games that I would like to have ADF backups for, I'm try to do Speedball 2 at the moment.

search for powercopy (version by stingray) on eab ftp. retroplay already created some powercopy-images, and there is also a parameter disk.

it's a text file, I attach it below

first you make a backup of your original disk with your amiga and powercopy, as described.
next you transfer it to your pc and use winuae - creating an empty extended adf in floppy dialog.
finaly write the backup back using winuae on the empty extended adf.
details in the tutorial.
