well i want to burn the atari 800xl emulator, but do have i to use a seperate cd for the diskimages or can it on the same cd, in what kind of format do i have to burn it?, were to put the roms ? Thanks , TheleN

hi, i've also searched for them, and asked for them but it seems that they aren't available to download anywhwere. i've found this page, the atari cartrideg dumping project which contains many dumped ones: http://www2.asw.cz/~kubecj/acartdp.htm but they say you should not ask for roms so i dont . But i would like to have them... well you could make your own cartridge reader/writer..but it isn't fun to read out only your cartridges and write them to a ram cart. please tell it if you have found some roms Thelen

could you give some more information about how to burn the cd's for the 800 xl? which burner program to use, where to put the disk images ? Thanks, TheleN

i did make a cartridge reader/ writer, it's not that difficult to make but you need some knowledge. building a cart reader over the internet is not easy. do you have something special that need's to be dumped ? TheleN

today i've got my third atari st with a bunch of disks, and one was labeled with : atari st uk language disk. when i started it, there was atari st basic on it, so i was wondering if anybody programmed something with it. is it possible to do something usefull with it ? unlike basic programming on the 2600 TheleN

i still don't get it really, when i power on the atari 2600, the 6507 will be on reset for a moment, then it starts execute adress $0000 (i thought) , but the cartridge rom starts at $1FFF ?, i don't get it, how the processor jumps to 1FFF. thanks,TheleN

i was just thinking,what does the instuction ORG $F000 do in the beginning of a game ? TheleN

well i've found the pinout already !!! but now i've got some questions, could somebody explain what the RDY, /RES, oo and o2 lines do ? any help would be great. TheleN

who knows where i can find the 6507 atari 2600 processor pinout ? Thanks, TheleN

the demo's from your page look great. but i want to program a little too, and downloaded your xasm package and there are .asx files (hardware.asx) with information. but when i click at it if refers to my mediaplayer and gives a error, how can i open this ?. do you now where i can get info on the registers ? TheleN

here i have a little information there are 4 wires used: purple = trigger, 0 when pressed white = +5v blue = signal out brown = GND i hope this inf. will help i was started with it, but i can't load a game that uses a lightgun. i don't have a ram cart that supports 16KB games to test it on my real 2600. TheleN

BTW, what other atari 2600 games use a lightgun ? maybe i could test something. TheleN

i didn't grew up at the time it was released but i think most of the games are really great. i can play them when i want, it's not that difficult like a playstation 2 game (first i have to learn how to control it, you have 15 fire buttons ), and afford them, and i discover every time new games (since i've missed all when it was released) TheleN

i think berzerk and asteroids. a lot of people think of atari when talking about pac-man. and the name ATARI is powerful. TheleN

check out the Definitive Combat Disassembly on the main page, and the dig is great. http://www.neonghost.com/the-dig/index.html TheleN

i have used a old isa slot from an old motherboard. or you can use a old floppy drive connector with ribbon cable on it. TheleN

right now i'm programming for the atari 2600, but it won't work !!! now i'm listening to the Cure (seventeen seconds)LP, and therefore New order (substance 1987) and therefore ultravox (quarted) TheleN

i wanted to try some programming on the atari 2600 but I don't understand this : my intention was to see at screen line 10 byte number 3 of pfdata1, but i get it over the whole screen i don't see what i do wrong, I compare Y with 10, so only if Y=10 then the pfdata byte 3 will be drawn at line 10 i thought. LDY #191 ScanLoop STA WSYNC CPY #10 ; compare y with 10 BNE nop0 ; not 10 ? goto nop0 LDX #3 LDA PFData1,x ;byte 3 from pfdata STA PF1 LDA #$FA STA COLUP0 ;color FA nop0 DEY BNE ScanLoop thanks, TheleN

I'm from a pal nation too, and i have cosmic ark with picture and without. and they are both pal. there's nothing standing on it but i assume they are both pal because they are exact thesame. TheleN

Thanks, great game. can i only play it with a mouse ? TheleN

maybe i want to make a cartridge where i can download 8 bit rom images to, but in a 8k cartridge are 2 roms, one with a inverted CE and one with normal CE. for example i have a .bin file of 8Kb , which rom contains the low 4K and which one the high 4K from the rom file ? and i've searched for rom images, but can't find any games or what ? TheleN

look at the vjetnam 8 bit atari games archive http://atari.crolink.cz they have lots of games ! TheleN

does somebody know where i can download millipede for the atari st. i've played it all night on the 2600, and now i've searched for st version. sombody know ? TheleN [ 03-01-2002: Message edited by: thelen ]

well i don't have a trade list, i'm just started collecting for 1 1/2 year, and i've about 70 different games. i've got some doubles but these are just some pac-man/asteroids etc carts. i've never get something from ebay or so. the only rare cart i have is x-man but it's pal (seems to be less rare). i'm from Hilversum, where are you guys from ? TheleN

they're all unboxed but they are fun to play. but i did never seen them before, one time in a shop where they were more expensive then a regular cart (i thought). maybe he wants to buy them Thelen
