Funny, I can't edit my own post above anymore....is there like a editing timer? After two hours you cannot edit your post anymore? However, I have solved the problem by remapping the raw keys with custom binding. = as Cursor UP / as Cursor DOWN + as Cursor LEFT * as Cursor RIGHT according to this layout in the pic it should be different. UP/DOWN are quirked. But it works.

Thanks a lot Avery. I am really bothering, I know. But now I have another slight problem. The arrow keys. They won't work as intended. Remapping the arrow keys to gamepad is off. When I press Down, it goes North. the other three Arrow Keys are not recognized. When I press CTRL, Left and Right are recognized, but Down stays North, UP does nothing. It isn't as easy as it seems.

I accidentally created a new comment, just wanted to add the created scenario disk which won't work. Ultima 3 Secenario Disk 2.atr

You forgot to activate the artefacting, unless you like it b/w. But hence, I even formatted a SD disk with dos 2.5, then booted U3, pressed c, created the scenario disk until the message "copy complete" appears. rebooted, created 4 characters, formed a party, and after selecting "journey onward" I just see the barebone GUI without any content and Altirra crashes.

Seems I have managed it too...with 320K Rambo RAM extension. But the real problem was, my self-created scenario disk wasn't working somehow. I used a double-density disk formatted with DOS 2.5 offered by Altirra in the drive menu. I am so Windows-biased nowadays, I even can't get these old games running properly. Cursor keys with Ctrl? Totally forgot about that. Thanks everyone for your help.

Yes, I think I have tried Version 2 and 3 and 4. Crashs right at the start.

Hello, did someone manage to run this game? Altirra seems to run some games almost perfectly, but this one doesn't seem to run. I did fiddle with the configuration, usually it crashes and asks for changing to PAL mode, which doesn't help, but with AltirraOS I could format a scenario disk (after booting to the first graphics screen press C), and I had to switch the disk to R/W, and it did create one. Then I could create 4 characters and form a party, but when I select Journey onward, it crashes again, even with AltirraOS. The game ran perfectly on my standard Atari 800 XL, so even with such a system configured, it crashes. Does anyone have a clue or can help? Ultima_III.zip

You should Alt+Tab to the Window you want to move before. If the Window is not visible in Alt+Tab, here is a helpful thread. https://superuser.com/questions/53585/how-to-move-windows-that-open-up-offscreen

Isn't it Shift+Windows+Cursor left or right? Moves the active window from one screen to another.

Just wanted to add a remark.... I wrote a short basic program showing the HATABS entries with peek, here is the result. After re-adding H: drive it appears to be at 032F (815), which is FREE ENTRY 3, the 8th position. Is the entry in HATABS for H: fixed at 032F (815) or does it vary? I think this question was somehow absent in mind. READY RUN MEM: 794 VAL: 80 P MEM: 797 VAL: 67 C MEM: 800 VAL: 69 E MEM: 803 VAL: 83 S MEM: 806 VAL: 75 K MEM: 809 VAL: 68 D ?? dunno about this letter (FREE ENTRY 1 (DOS) according to Mapping the Atari) MEM: 812 VAL: 77 M ?? dunno about this letter (FREE ENTRY 2 (850 MODULE) according to Mapping the Atari) MEM: 815 VAL: 72 H MEM: 818 VAL: 0 MEM: 821 VAL: 0 MEM: 824 VAL: 0 MEM: 827 VAL: 0 Maybe I understand entry 6 for xdos, but not entry 7, where probably the H: drive was residing.

Works. Thank you very much once more.

Hello, I have a question and need some help with Altirra. Basically I want to retrieve a basic listing from a spartaDOS disk. So I boot the disk in drive d1 and enter load "d1:name.ext" The listing is loaded and I can run it. When I want to save the listing on h1: or h6: error 130 shows up. When I boot without the disk, H: works perfectly, it is setup correctly. Is H: drive not working with SpartaDOS loaded, in this case X-dos 2.3n? Seems my knowledge here is somewhat limited. I have attached the disk. Thanks for any help. DasGrosseSpieleBuchFuerATARI-D1.atr

Depends on what LCD Panel you are using. TN panels and VA/MVA Panels are the NOT best, especially the latter have tearing with black areas. Use a recent IPS Panel and it works as it should. I use Altirra all the time, my real ATARI times was over, when I tried to repair my disk drive's squeaking with oil from the kitchen, olive oil. I was quite young and stupid. Now I am not young anymore.

My three favorite emulators: Altirra, Emu8086 and Turing complete. Happy Easter (Egg hunting). ???

The game where this happened was Pitfall 2. One improvement I am thinking of, could be to paste the loaded game file name into the Save State box as default name for the Save State. I think Altirra already remembers the file name if saving recurrently, if the file has been saved once in the current session. I dunno, if we are supposed to code this ourselves though... Anyway, many thanks for answering this topic in depth?.
