Anyway thx for the script.

Not at all

And about this script. You can convert not only IPF, but some other formats too (see readme to MFM2WWARP), you only need to add additional suffixes to first requestfile line.

Edit this file and put adequate paths.
this "disk.1 stuff" is because i don't know how to put arguments WITHOUT tracks in WWARP - without tracks (WWARP T:Temp.wwp G $outfile) it doesn't work, after all.

a bit improved:

Code:

requestfile >env:infile drawer="(put your path to dir with IPFs)" title="select IPF file to convert" noicons pattern=#?.IPF
requestfile >env:outfile drawer="(put your path to dir with ADFs)" title="select where to save ADF" noicons
WWARP T:Temp.wwp C Import=$infile Force
WWARP T:Temp.wwp G * $outfile
delete T:Temp.wwp

requires WWarp 1.25 which supports import using trackwarp.library, saves two step (force and copy)

Thanks for improved script!

BTW: Hmm... the "*" sign... good to know

Thanks! I was searching on http://whdload.de/whdload/Tools/

This thread rocks!

Does anyone of you have an idea how to do this on my A1000 with 0.5M built-in RAM + 1.0 M expansion? ( = 1.5M in total)
I've thought about creating part of this on the emulator's side (e. g. the *.wwp warp file) and transfer it, but could that actually work?

landex · 20 January 2011, 22:20

hi
i search MFM2WWARP everywhere and i cant find it. Who knows where can download it?
thanks

Wepl · 20 January 2011, 22:42

it was contained in older releases of wwarp, because importing other warp formats has been built into wwarp it's not contained it the latest releases.
you can use 'wwarp import=filename.mfm' to convert the files (requires trackwarp.library), see wwarp readme

Foul · 20 January 2011, 22:48

using http://aminet.net/package/disk/misc/diskimage.m68k-aos is easier

Highly recommended.

It didnt work.

And I dont have OS3. I just want convert a ipf to adf.

Foul · 21 January 2011, 13:13

mount your IPF with diskimage and use ADF-Blitzer to convert it in ADF

Thanks, but it didnt work the ipf-image is original and has a copy protect.
Is there another way?

mr.vince · 22 January 2011, 13:04

What do you want to do? There are ways to mount IPF directly on an Amiga.

If you want to create a floppy, you'll need a hardware that can write protection data, e.g. KryoFlux will be able to do this. Writing is actually in production and will come with one of the next software releases.

Or you could take an already existing ADF and write this to disk on a real Amiga. The latter will most likely be a cracked version, unless the original was on ADos disks anyway.

you could use tw2adf from the trackwarp package

mr.vince · 22 January 2011, 13:50

BTW if it is just for the plain conversion... didn't Toni come up with something?

Retro-Nerd · 22 January 2011, 19:37

Yep, UAEUNP.

It cant work because its a non-ADOS image.

mr.vince · 25 January 2011, 12:32

In regard to KryoFlux it won't care if it is standard or not, it will write whatever you feed it.

It is also possible to store non-ADOS in ADF, as long as you don't go beyond what the sector dump (ADF) can store.

Plus you could also mount the IPF on an Amiga while using Workbench and write your own program to extract data from the IPF (which would work like a real disk).

I would really like to help, if you tell me what you intend to do.
