Using .IPF images on a real amiga - Page 3

Presumably you could use UAE, boot and run e.g. XCopy, mount the IPF in DF0: and then mount a blank ADF in DF1: and do a disc copy?

mainly if the IPF doesnt have copy protection with some exceptions

I was just thinking of an easy way to go from IPF to ADF - the copy protection issue would be the same regardless of the conversion method. I'm sure most peeps on here are familiar with X-Copy or D-Copy so could easily convert from IPF to ADF. Not really going to work for Turrican, Dragons Lair, Xenon II etc.

Well...I'm desperately seeking a way to write an IPF file to disk on real Amiga. WITHOUT conversion to ADF, because this conversion damage disk structure which is protected with copylock and without special devices, simply on Amiga. This game is SWOS 96-97, and after conversion from IPF to adf and writing to diskgame computer reboots. on real Amiga and on WinUAE. Any suggestions (without buying KryoFlux of course)?

I think OSH wants a disk. SWOS is Copylock protected... so I don't see making a disk without a dedicated hardware.
