MaDDuck Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 Has anyone seen it? I'm having a booger of time finding it. I'd like to see the monochrome screenshots to see if it's worth a buy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anzac Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 If all you want is see how it is in monochrome, why not try the game in STEEM? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaDDuck Posted September 11, 2016 Author Share Posted September 11, 2016 http://atari.8bitchip.info/SCRSH/crystalc.html Old fashioned or not: get some mass storage and get rid from piles of unreliable floppies; I use a Mega Everdrive, Master Everdrive, Everdrive GB, TI multicart, satandisk, MMC64 so I can run on original hardware. I only use a floppy when it's absolutely necessary. All of my info is backed up. The only think I have lost is my Notator %$#@*& DRM dongle.

MaDDuck Posted September 12, 2016 Author Share Posted September 12, 2016 I know emulators are good. Emulators will solve erectile dysfunction They help you lose weight too! An emulator will help you grow hair. You can also appear taller with the right emulator. Three words, "Ladies LOVE emulators." Emulators don't lose their flavor on the bedpost at night, Four out of 5 doctors recommend emulators for their patients that emulate. WINE is emulation It's just not for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anzac Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 Seems perfectly reasonable for someone who just wants to see if the game is "worth a buy" to try it for 5m on an emulator. If you have so many gadgets to be able to run on original hardware (though a purist would never use such "modern storage options" and stick to floppies), can't you just write the game image and play the game on your hardware? I did that, tried it on my Falcon and worked and since you're trying mono resolution, almost any VGA monitor will do, if that's the issue... People tried to help with a reasonable option, you're free to take their advice or not, but a simple "thank you" would have been enough. I don't know if the "ladies love emulators" post was a joke, but felt a little over the top. Like you said, "it's just not for" you. Doesn't mean others should be preached at... I'm sorry, I really don't want to look rude, maybe written entries in a forum are not the ideal way to adequately assess the mood and what the other person means exactly when they write something. Love of Atari is a great thing that we all share in this forum. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ParanoidLittleMan Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 Without one emulator - Steem Debugger there would be at least 10x less mass storage fixed Atari games done. Strange's that Missouri people - they like no colors, only falling humor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anzac Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 It is called humor. I was trying, and failing it seems, to be funny No harm done... Sometimes I have what people call an acerbic sense of humor, not suitable for everyone. The problem with written humor is that it makes it harder to know the actual mood or meaning sometimes And thank you for your thank you... It is most appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaDDuck Posted September 12, 2016 Author Share Posted September 12, 2016 Cool... Maybe one day I will use an emulator, I am emu-curious, FPGA's are an exciting frontier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjlazer Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 (edited) I ran it on my 1040ST and it seems ok. Seems the game scales the resolution up so it doesn't use the full high resolution.
