G. 9 means GOTO 9, not Graphics 9. That would be GR. 9.

Yes, that's right. We are going to dump it again.

 

Hi

 

After 6 months wait, here's the redump for "The Casebook of Hemlock Soames #3".

This was done using a SIO2PC cable and APE, a 1050 with an 800XL, and the MyCopyr sector copier.

This time care was taken to select the proper format on the destination disk image: single-sided, single-density, 720 sectors.

Side B of the original disk is empty/unformatted.

 

Kind regards,

Luis.

 

PS: This lockdown is somehow turning into something productive from the A8 point of view 🙂

Chose for an alternate poster as I wanted to avoid more reds Also went for the retro video game look, so no obvious line artifacts

Violator cover looks pretty good to me...did you crop Screamadelica? The artist and album name are missing. Anyway, it looks pretty good to me also 🙂

 

Thanks for your work on these.

Víctor,

I also Love your program "ATASCII printer V.0.4". ATASCIIprinter V.0.4.htm

Is there a way to save the Basic file to Notepad instead of a BMP file?

 

Thanks,

[Unicum screen corruption]

Hello atarians

 

Whenever I play Unicum on my 800XL, and get the laser power, the screen gets corrupted, similar to what you can see on this video at 01:20:

 

 

I have been told this is because the game was originally coded for PAL computers, while my 800XL is NTSC.

Is there a fix for this? Or maybe an Unicum version that runs fine on NTSC computers?

 

Kind regards,

 

Luis.

Hi!

 

I can review and/or correct any content written you write into the wiki, just point me to it   

 

Have Fun!

 

Just get in touch with ascrnet, he is the one that has to approve your account setup request. We need help.

 

Kind regards,

 

Luis.

The Atariware forum is gone, my friend...that's a pity, lot of information gone...but to be honest, activity was very scarce on the months before its closure. For the moment, you can visit the new Atariware Wiki and leave your comments on the articles.

That Xevious art looks nice, it's a shame it never made it to the official 5200 release. Was that Bugs Bunny art ever used on any official released?

[Need Something?]

Thanks for your answer Bob, no worries.

 

What about the Atari 1064 memory expansion module for the 600XL computer. Do you have any?

 

Kind regards,

 

Luis.

[Need Something?]

Dear Santa...sorry...Bob

 

Do you have an Atari 5200 VCS Cartridge Adaptor for me?

 

Kind regards,

 

Luis.
