starwindz Posted September 21, 2014 Author Share Posted September 21, 2014 (edited) Cosmic Balance will be added in the next update. Ads (Source: www.atarimania.com) Atarimania user comments Dustdevil - 22/07/2010 Cosmic Balance was truly awesome to play, back in the day. To build diffrent type ships, battle ship to ship w/up to 8 ships on the field. Truly a lot of fun. Wish I could find a copy Bob Jones - 12/11/2008 I loved this game and spent many hours building ships and sending them into combat. Too bad this is lost forever. Does anyone out there have a copy of this awesome game for the Atari 8 bit series? Rob - 15/09/2006 Cosmic Balance I was a really great "design it and fight with it" game. I can remember trying all kinds of weird designs just to throw at the opposing player or computer. You can soon discover certain designs that will generally always win but the game is still enjoyable. SSI always had great concepts, wonderful box art and interesting manuals. If you ever get a hold of Colonial Conquest or Knights of the Desert give the Robert Billings stories a read - worth the time! cgw_01.pdf cgw_02.pdf Edited September 21, 2014 by starwindz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

starwindz Posted September 23, 2014 Author Share Posted September 23, 2014 The game grouping by genres feature in the main window of the front end will be improved. Grouping by publishers will be added. So I am going to make the test version for this feature. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep it up madi Starwindz is a fantastic guy and working like a man possessed but lets not forget the other guys here who give a huge amount of their time to the 8bit, people like (in no special order) JAC, Phaeron, Miker, Rybags, Jose, Peteym, TMR and so many others whose names are far too numerous to list. The front end is fantastic and Starwindz has done tireless work on it, I throw in a lot of testing, the odd idea or two and help re the emulators but its a group effort where every one pitches in idea's and games. We all want the best 'Best Of' gamebase out there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are so many nice people here in Atari-age that devote a huge chunk of their own time just to keep the Atari world alive and no question about that. Sure Mclaneinc , I can not forget your restless efforts to keep this project healthy and straight, as you make a perfect team with starwindz .

Mclaneinc Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 You English is better than most of the people who live on my estate, and I do mean the English people by that.. As for what I do, any one with the same amount of time that I have could do a better job, I just like to help as I have done in other gamebases and would like to think I can recognise a good game when I see one. Its a group thing where we all help Starwindz...Perfect... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mclaneinc Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 (edited) Hi there, part two and three seem wrong on my system too BUT they unrar fine if you start from part one, have a go and let me know, if there's still an issue I'll start from scratch.. Thanks for the reply.. Edit: I'm using the latest Winrar in 'store' mode ie there's no compression (the compression on PDF's would be minimal.) And just to save worries, all my stuff gets scanned by Avira on a regular basis as well as a live scan so its nothing to do with nasties on the system If I double click on part 2 or 3 I get an error re a missing volume but unpacked perfectly from part one.. Could be a Winrar bug.. Edited September 24, 2014 by Mclaneinc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Audronic Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 @Mclaneinc Part 1 after being UnRared gives me AtariUser01-May85 to AtariUser43-Nov88 perfectly Part 2 informs me of errors (I am using a MAC) and then continues and partially extracts. Part 3 the same I have downloaded part 2 twice , same both times Ray Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidmt Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 @Mclaneinc Part 1 after being UnRared gives me AtariUser01-May85 to AtariUser43-Nov88 perfectly Part 2 informs me of errors (I am using a MAC) and then continues and partially extracts. Part 3 the same I have downloaded part 2 twice , same both times Ray They all downloaded and extracted fine for me. 43 total files. I am using a Mac also. Try using JDownloader, it is a useful tool and takes care of the extracting. http://jdownloader.org Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mclaneinc Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 There should be 43 files and from July 85 to November 88... If you are getting that the you have them, Total size is 1.48 gig.. Just incase make sure you use the latest port / version of winrar.. I'll wait for answers from Starwindz if he got them ok and a couple of others just to make sure before I redo it all.. Paul..
