gentlemagic commented 4 years ago

I have 900MB .hds hardisk file contain many games, please add support for .hds. Also can you make a touch overlay keyboard for playing on android

gingerbeardman commented 4 years ago

convert it to a supported hard-disk format. eg. .hdf

ghost commented 3 years ago

How would one do that?

gingerbeardman commented 3 years ago

If we're talking about the NFG Games HDS file, it has already been converted to HDF by @gentlemagic the OP of this issue

Dated 4 days after this issue. Nice work!

That conversion resulted in 15 files. Is there a way to convert a HDS file into an equivalent HDF file?

gingerbeardman commented 3 years ago

It was 15 files because they decided to split it like that (alphabetical). Each of the 15 are clearly labelled with their contents.

But to answer your question, use XM6 emulator (Windows) to mount the HDS drive, and a blank HDF, then copy the files from one to the other. Details, and best place for support: https://nfggames.com/forum2/index.php?topic=4876.0
