  1. Thank you that you have done all the work and sharing it with the community☺️
  2. ...and just as an addition, dried out pens will be not your only problem with the 1020...🤔 Some plastic gears has been shrunken and broken over the time and they are now loose on their axis. It is very likley, that you will run in this problems, too.
  3. You can remove the pens from the plotter easily. Just study the manual. Then you can use them as a "pencil" with any kind of paper... Good luck! .
  4. Thank you phareon for the fast reply, rebind was the way to go! Now it works as it should.
  5. Hi, using Altirra 4.10 with 2 Joysticks I found a strange behavior. Testing a 2 Player game for the ABBUC Magazin, I connected two Sub 9 Joysticks via an USB-Joystick converter to the PC. Everything worked fine, except the fire button on Joystick 2. I verifed this with a little basic program to see the value of STRIG(1) and is 0, if the button was pressed or not... Tried this with ATARI800 Emulator, same configuration, button value is 1 when pressed... Here are the settings for Altirra: Is this a bug of Altirra, or is the bug sitting in front of the PC?
  6. An other classic of the C64 now for the ATARI! Grazie mille!
  7. I have space for two AVG Carts, just in case...😁 I hope ist ok to use your Generator, MrFish🤗
  8. Thank you Stephen, always appreciate new stuff for my VBXE☺️
  9. I started my flying career in 1990 with glider flying. Ok, first I was a skydiver, before I became aware that is possible to land with an aircraft...? It was the tradional way, step by step. After the glider licence, I got my licence for motor gliders. After that I became a PPL-Pilot in 1992 and 1993 the CPL licence, but only VFR. I got them all, glider and banner towing, aerobatics, flight instructor... I teached for the radio certificate (it's seperate here in Germany) and wrote my own school book with the "Startexter" on the good old ATARI. I print it on a STAR LC-20 dot matrix printer and left some space between the chapters to insert the graphics and pictures by hand. Then I started to make copies of it. When I remember correctly, it took about 10 disks full of text. What an effort! In 1999 I got my IFR licence. I trained basic IFR flying a lot with my ATARI FS2 cartridge and the book "Fliegen mit dem Mikro". OK, there were better solutions out there, for example the FS98 for Windows. But hey, I did my IFR-Simulator sessions on an electro-mechanical FRASCA 101(?) simulator. That was really "retro"and the ATARI FS2 was a kind of superior. Plug and play, not the raid for conventional memory in the "config.sys" and all the settings for the graphic and sound card... In 2000 I make a living as an Pilot. I did aerial survey flights on a Cessna 206 till 2006 and then get a job on a Dash 8-100/300 for a regional airline. In 2008 I got a rating for the Dornier 328-100 and became a captain. (Now I could feed my family...)? Since 2018 I fly an Embraer Legacy 650 for business charter... Today my skills with the FS2 are not so good anymore. Most landings are horrible! I hope that will not happend to me in real flying, till I get retired... I had some experience with "Solo Flight 2" and was very good at "Tomahawk" witch I found very reallistic for those days. Kennedy Approach is still impressive for me. That's the story of Tigerduck Allways happy landings to all flying enthusiast on Atari Age?
  10. Were can I order this?? Looks really great, it seems to me it was a lot of work...
  11. Wow, like the graphics!
