Jetboot Jack Posted February 13, 2003 Share Posted February 13, 2003 In the machine type menu (where you can choose the computer model and PAL/NTSC) there are RAM size settings - the latest version of the emulator will emulate upto 1MB Ram.... But you need the correct OS ROM image (the 130XE one) to use this RAM... sTeVE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharky Posted February 13, 2003 Author Share Posted February 13, 2003 FANTASTIC! 10/10 Thanks for your help Jetbook Jack I got it going. And this impressered me so much. As Ill only known Atari 400/800 for its games and never seen an Atari 400/800 Self-Running demo before. Very impressive from beginning to end. I read in the credits they even used the help from Ken Silvermans Build Engine. I havent used Ken Silvermans Build Engine in years! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gunstar Posted February 13, 2003 Share Posted February 13, 2003 Speaking of atari800win emulator, I have never been able to get it to run because it says it's missing the 'ZLIB.DLL' file and EVERYWHERE I go none of the ones I've downloaded seem to have this file, seems like there was another file missing too...? Can anyone show me where there is a COMPLETE Atari800win emulator with ALL the required files? I never bothered asking before, because I RARELY use any emulators anyway, but I would like to check out the NUMEN demo too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But what you will be looking for is the ATARIBAS.ROM, ATARIOSA.ROM, ATARIXL.ROM, and ATARIXL.ROM! Just search for them under Google and im sure you will come across them and set up your AtariWinPlus setting and im just everything will be fine. BTW. Is there a site out there that have Atari 400/800 Demos. Because Ive noticed with Numen is does an excellent job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetboot Jack Posted February 13, 2003 Share Posted February 13, 2003 Gunstar... ZLIB is just a compression library for ZIP type files, you don't need it to use ATR and EXE type files, if you read the release notes for Atari800win 2.6 (which did not include the DLL) you'll see: * Big feature: support for save states (also known as "snapshots"). You must have ZLIB working (the DLL supplied with Atari800Win must be in the path) to use this. Saved states saves _everything_ about your Atari itself, the entire contents of memory, where you are in a program, etc. A save state does NOT save your display, input, or sound settings. When you load a state save, the Atari will be paused on a black screen. Hit F9 to start the saved state. Saved state file sizes will vary based on the machine type and what it was doing / had loaded. But Atari800win 2.6 is very old, so you'll wanna go for the PLUS version (3.1) which includes the DLL - you can get that from here - http://www.a800win.atari-area.prv.pl Go to this place to learn more about ZLIB - http://www.winimage.com/zLibDll/ sTeVE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
