OK, after reseting my 0-length brain 😆, it works finally...
Main reason was, I extracted the ARC files on my PC with WinHKI, but it doesn't work with "SCMAIN.OVL". Only a empty file was created, for whatever reason...
All the other files seem to be OK.
I extracted the files on the "real machine" and now it works!
Thanks for your prompt reply

sc106.arc 35.48 kB · 18 downloads
This version uses the functions of the video drivers (included) to scroll the panels up and down. These functions in old drivers were either buggy or not implemented at all, so before trying out the new SC you first have to replace the respective drivers with the versions included in the archive. S_VBXE and RC_VBXE are for VBXE (you use just one of these two), RC_GR8 is for non-VBXE computers.
Having the drivers replaced, replace SCMAIN.OVL then.
Beta versions, if something does not work, please report.
Hi drac030,
I tried on Altirra and it work, but on my real machine (800XL, VBXE, U1MB, PokeyMAX, SIDE2) it did not... 😞
Spend serveral hours to try every configuration without success.
Here are some pictures, maybe that helps to find out what's wrong...
After "copying modules:" the Computer hangs, cold Reset is required.
If I choose "No" for the RAM-Disk, the busy-light on the SIDE2 cartridge starts flashing endlessly...
Thanks for help!

Since I have copied (or tried to copy) 821 A8 tapes onto diskette with my Hifi system, I can confirm that very few of them (approx. 2%) do have loader music. Alas, I did not get the tape version of "Zeppelin" (Synapse) into my hands yet and errrm, 49.95 Euro at ebay for that tape is a bit too expensive for me. I do not want to pay 50-100 Euro for single A8 tapes where no-one can guarantee that they work...
Hi Charlie,
I have the Zepplin tape. If you like, I can make the extract of the loader music. Just need your instructions/what settings you prefer...
Best regards

Hi Simius, I would like to order 2 Sophias
Thank you very much😀

I will not take part in the contest, hence I already own one...
...but hey, this is a very cool thread anyway, to see all the nice pictures of the different evolutions of the ATARI machines...👍

(I know that when I send out a free key, people don't have to create an account to download.)
Maybe since you preordered that email just shows the placeholder text files that were there when it was still preorders? In any case there should be new packages now
Thank you, found the email and downloaded the files. I really should reorganize my email system...

Hi drac030,
I have a C128 and have played a little bit wih CP/M on it. But CP/M on the ATARI would be much smarter!
My 130XE is equiped with the Rapidus, VBXE and U1MB, that means, ready to go.
But I need more detailed instructions to run CP/M on the ATARI and/or Altirra.
I really would appreciate if you could publish a kind of "Step by step instruction".
I downloaded the tools and programms on your website, but with no success to run CP/M on Altirra
Many thanks

I didn't know him personally, but I will miss him anyway. All the best to his family in these difficult times... -

Oops, missed that there are already music and sound effects in the demo version for the JS7800...
Before I downloaded the ZIP-file and tested it on the real hardware. There was no sound at all (except "rewind").
Think it needs only a little polish, and then it complete the game really nice.

I think he should take 2, because the other one is for me...😁
Nice game, with good graphics and very playable. Not as frustrating as Rikki and Vikki (nevertheless also a pretty good game).
With good sound effects and background music it will become really a "10"...

Great news! New motivation to finish my game project written in Action!, including Assembler and a little Turbobasic.
In fact, most was done by JAC!
But unfortunately he is sooo busy with a quadrillion other projects, I should take action(!) myself now.
Thank you very much for this cool project!

Thanx for the reply!
For now it did not happen again. I will keep an eye on it keep you informed.
Nevertheless, it's a really great game.
Thank you and best regards
