Creating save disks for a HxC floppy Emulator

Obliterator · 30 October 2013, 10:09

Hello fellow Amiga peoples

Has anyone created a blank floppy image using the software for the HxC floppy emulator I have tried to make a AmigaDos disk for save games using the create disk program on the floppy emulator software on the PC I used the 3.5 880k AmigaDos DSDD but my A500 doesn't see them on the SD card I must be doing something wrong some were

Any help would be greatly appreciated

If you are doing something wrong then, I must be as well. I can't get it to work either.

Best to make a copy of an .hfe image and format it to make a blank.

Yes there is an issue with the disk image browser.

Workaround :

- create a "myfloppy.amigados" folder the pc.
- drag & drop it on the hxc application
- export the image (hfe format).

I'm pretty sure there's an archive called quick install images or something like that on the hxc webpage which contains setups for different machines and a load of blank amiga disk images I'll see if I can find it and post the link.
