this is a nice treat. thanks for taking the time to port it to the native o/s for those of us that don't use linux.

is there a complete guide on this emu? it has a ton of options (hold L + R), most of which i'm clueless about =P

when i mess with multi-disk images i can't get disk 2 to run. i tried the disk managment section. what folder do the images have to be in inorder to work? i'm getting "no files inside directory." i tried setting emulator configuration > configure directories. i set the directory for a 2 disk rom but still can't get this working.

if you have the keyboard open then hit L + R, the keyboard is over the menu and can't be closed. the menu can't be selected. using the dingoo "hard reset button" is the only option left.

galactic adventures -- i select my race and then bring up the keyboard so i can hit "Y" to use that chacter and each time it goes back to the character race selection screen as tho i hit "N".

autoduel doesn't work. graphics are garbled, etc.

There ano special guide for simulator, but original version have some docs. please look to original site for it
And you can use just 'L' key to enter options screen.
http://atari800.sourceforge.net/index.html

when i mess with multi-disk images i can't get disk 2 to run. i tried the disk managment section. what folder do the images have to be in inorder to work? i'm getting "no files inside directory." i tried setting emulator configuration > configure directories. i set the directory for a 2 disk rom but still can't get this working.
Witch images type do you use? please send it to me to e-mail that included in atari800.txt in simulator archive.

if you have the keyboard open then hit L + R, the keyboard is over the menu and can't be closed. the menu can't be selected. using the dingoo "hard reset button" is the only option left.
It seems to be bug, but how you have open keyboard in menu mode? I try to do it hunderd of times and unable to repeat it Smiley

I have tested it (.sim version) and I confirm all this bugs. Every multidisk game when I change disk emulator crash "The Atari Computer has Crashed". Version .app of emulator works ok, games must be in a:\game\Atari800 , don't see SD Card.

Wow! Atari 800, the first computer i owned!
Ive just been messing about with this emu and it runs almost every game ive tried flawlessly.
Ive tried atleast 60 games and have only found 2 that didnt work!
Ive noticed that on a few games the screen is abit garbled and jumps abit, but this can be fixed by going into the options (L trigger) and changing the select system option to pal instead of ntsc.
this seems to work on every game that has had screen problems!

hm... what I doing wrong?:
1:Start emulator via first disk image
2:Wait until it say something like insert second disk and press start
3. Press L, Choose Disk management, choose D1, and select second disk file, Press B,B
4.Press start... all working correctly

Sorry, my mistake, I wait too short , in first picture I change disk, multidisk is ok even on SD Card.

When you on keyboard (R - key) and then push L+R then you go to menu and keyboard is on.You must block R-key when keyboard, but why some people push R+L  I don't now.

One bug, when some game crash, doesn't work "Exit Emulator" .

Wow - I just tried out this emulator with four or five games.  I found the sound seemed a bit off, but other than that the emulation was very good!   Grin

i did not know that the menu key was "L" i thought it was "L+R". press "R" to bring up the keyboard in any ROM and then hit "L and R" at the same time. The keyboard is now over the menu. this happens for me on every ROM i've tried it on.

hm... what I doing wrong?:
1:Start emulator via first disk image
2:Wait until it say something like insert second disk and press start
3. Press L, Choose Disk management, choose D1, and select second disk file, Press B,B
4.Press start... all working correctly
?

i just tested with...
Gauntlet - Disk 1.atr [4B9FA692]
Gauntlet - Disk 2.atr [9E617A43]

this is working, the problem has been the vague directions. this emu and its options have a learning curve. i had not understood what i was looking at. there is no reason to "load" the directory.

this is what worked for me:
when it says to insert disk 2
hit L to bring up the emu menu
goto disk management, hit A to select it
hit a on directory 1, which should hold the path to the disk image you are currently playing
...the next screen that comes up is to select the next disk image in the set
...find the second image and hit A
the emu goes back to the disk management screen and you will see the selected disk image is now loaded in the path
hit b to exit the disk management screen
hit b to exit the emu menu screen
hit "start" (as this game says to) to play disk 2

i am using the .sim version, by the way! =)

==============

i will send you those roms i found issues with in a few minutes. i will use sendspace so check your e-mail spam folder just in case the link goes there.

from this point on i'll e-mail you, using sendspace, any roms which cause issues for me. i will include a text file in the rar/zip which explains any problems.

cheers.

I have been playing with this emulator a lot the last few days.  Last night I was sitting on the sofa playing several 8-bit games like Missile Command, Pacman, Pole Position, and Meteorites (an Asteroids rip-off that plays better than Atari's own 8-bit Asteroids...).  Even Star Raiders runs fine - but of course it's not really playable without a real keyboard.

Excellent!  Thanks a lot for releasing this emulator!

Thanks as always, the support of Mini SD card is much welcomed, any plans of including mapable controls (e.g. via kbd files?), causo with them many games like Star Raiders would be playable.

Great - thank you!

I don't suppose you'd consider trying to port an Atari 2600 emulator, would you..?   Grin
