Amiga IPF disk format (Solved)

Hi,
I'm trying to get IPF disk format to be recognized on FS-UAE.
What would be the folder to place capsimg.so file?
I tried ~\Documents\FS-UAE\Plugins, but it never shows up on FS-UAE GUI - settings - Plugins

Is there any other file (like plugin.ini) that need to be accounted for somewhere else?

Great work!
Thanks!

I'm no expert on this but Google is your friend. :ugeek:

I got this from: https://fs-uae.net/download#windows
This page was about the windows version, so perhaps you may need the linux version of the CAPSImg.so file.
I'm not sure if they would be interchangeable.

It looks like you'll have to create the following folder structure.
~/Documents/FS-UAE/System/CAPSImg
and put the CAPSImg.so file in there.

Let us know how you go?
I might need to get my hands on a copy of that file.

You pointed in the right direction

I can confirm that the files at https://fs-uae.net/download#linux are the ones needed and the right folder to place the content of the tar files is

\Documents\FS-UAE\Plugins

The complete folder structure needs to be deployed inside the Plugins folder

I was wrongfully placing only the capsimg.so, at the root of Plugins

The full path should look like :

/Documents/FS-UAE/Plugins/CAPSImg

IPF disk format is now readable.
Thanks!
