Copy files ADF to HDF

[Heula]

How can I copy files from a adf disk to a new created HDF file with WinUAE?

I want to create HDF files for 2 games which are not present yet as WHDload. Kick off 2 extended version and player manager. Now I have setup 2 configs for those games to run as adf but is slow off course. The games are loading much faster from hdf.

Tested this with a hdf version off sensible soccer which I downloaded once and it's running much faster.

have you tried putting the disk emulation mode speed to turbo ?

Not yet. Can try that but I realy would like the game to be in hdf.

Found some tools like adfopus and adfview but they give me errors when opening the adf disk.

Not sure if it would be this easy but I thought when I could read the adf disk and copy the files to a new created hdf it would boot just like the adf disk?

But then again I need a tool which can read the adf without giving me errors.

this will only work if the source ADFs are Dos-formatted, and not hard-coded to read from the floppy drive you realise?

if they are non-dos, it might explain the errors when reading the adf with adfview.


i did this with "Big Business" - which has no WHDload or other HD installer myself, and it was just a case of drag-and-drop using adfview.

I don't know what dos format it is. I downloaded the adf disks here. http://www.thegamearchives.com/?val=...0_4_17_0_0_0_0

The error is myinetdevice : fopen

No idea what it means.

Perhaps someone has Kick off 2 extended version and player manager in hdf format and wants to upload in the Zone?

If you load up Workbench and then insert the ADF, if it says DF0:NDOS or similar as the disk's name then it isn't a disk readable by Workbench, therefore you can't copy them to an HDF.

That is the 1mb version with a referee and more sounds. It's not listed in HOL. I got that one another way.
Player manager is listed in HOL.

The extended version can be found here. http://www.planetemu.net/index.php?s...dat=257&page=k
