Many people are doing shit with the firmware (-selling it on ebay,amibay and other commercial places) and don’t get any respect at all for the work done here… I even got some insults from the one selling it on amibay… You should contact him directly (ltac) for the future update since he seems to believe to own all the rights over the firmware…
i think that you understand that i am not very motivated to work for these peoples.
This is not the end of the project, but I have to found another way for it to avoid such abuse.

Re: Gotek Floppy Emu=poorman's HxC ???
Αρκετά updates μετά ...
20 June 2015: Firmware USB HxCFloppyEmulator v3.0.5.0a
- Direct *.ST / *.IMG file support added
(Read only - Write support incoming !)
For Atari ST users, you need to update your file manager too :
http://hxc2001.com/download/floppy_driv ... anager.zip
Current image support : *.HFE (RW), *.ADF (RW), *.ST (RO), *.IMG (RO).
(Note/Reminder : The HFE format was designed to be universal. This one can be used with many types of machines).
17 June 2015: Firmware USB HxCFloppyEmulator v3.0.4.0a
- I2C LCD auto detection/scan and communication improved/corrected
- Low level pulses generator improved :
- Code size reduced.
- 250Kbits/s, 300Kbits/s, 500Kbits/s support (FM/MFM).
- Variable bitrate & flakey bit support "Ready"
07 June 2015: Firmware USB HxCFloppyEmulator v3.0.3.1a
- Some IOs timing improved.
- Agony game issue almost corrected.
06 June 2015: Firmware USB HxCFloppyEmulator v3.0.3.0a
- USB Sticks are now mounting a way faster at power up !
- I2C LCD display support added !
These kind of I2C LCD board is compatible with the firmware :
http://www.ebay.com/itm/IIC-I2C-TWI-SP- ... 484f235c20
(board only - without the LCD)
http://www.ebay.com/itm/IIC-I2C-TWI-SPI ... 258afcd8e4
(board only - without the LCD)
http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Blue-IIC-I2 ... 338ed80545
(board + LCD)
http://www.ebay.com/itm/IIC-I2C-TWI-SP- ... 484f1ed4cd
(board + LCD)
Any I2C address is supported : The firmware scan automatically the I2C bus at power up (0x20-0x27 and 0x38-0x3F address range scanned)
So there is no specific requirement about the I2C address setting.
To connect the I2C LCD, you have to connect SDA & SCL at the J7 connector (see below).
Please note that 2 additionnals 4.7Kohms pull up resistors (+5V) are needed on SCL & SDA.
the +5V and GND wire can be connected on the programming connector (see below) :
If you want to build the I2C board yourself, here is the schematic:

31 May 2015: Firmware USB HxCFloppyEmulator v3.0.2.5a
- CPC & Shugart disk change signal timing corrected.
- Dead lock issue while existing the direct access mode corrected.
23 May 2015: Firmware USB HxCFloppyEmulator v3.0.2.2a
- Amiga Disk change timing corrected. (Goal!, Arabian Nights, and probably other titles)
- The last disk selected is now saved to the USB Stick.
- Long press on one button allows to select the manager disk (000).
