Mclaneinc Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 If you use raw keystrokes in Altirra's Keyboard prefs it passes the test Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rybags Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 Probably not a huge problem so long as VBXE in fact gets reset properly. Stock machines return different values from "empty" locations, ie some 00, some FF, some row address. Proper VBXE programming means you always setup your bank registers from scratch anyway.

phaeron Posted November 10, 2011 Author Share Posted November 10, 2011 Oops... Altirra clears all VBXE registers to base state on a warm reset. Looking at the docs, it looks like only some of the bits should be reset. I should fix this up. But yes, it's good practice to reinit the registers from scratch anyway.

flashjazzcat Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 Cheeky question, and don't hate me for asking: is there even a remote possibility of implementing slave support for the hard disk emulation in Altirra (i.e. having a path to an optional second HDD image file)? I spent quite a while coding up dual-HDD support for the MyIDE driver, and since my MyIDE hardware has finally given up, I'm no longer able to test this facility.

phaeron Posted November 11, 2011 Author Share Posted November 11, 2011 I think it's doable and I'll put it on the TODO list, but it'd be a bunch of work and I couldn't estimate when I'd have it implemented... sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No problem: I realize it's pretty specialized and I really appreciate your considering it. Take your time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marius Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 In Atari800Mac there is a very easy way of swapping disks (like D1 vs D2) I go to the Disk Menu (in Atari800Mac) and press 1, and then 2. I could not find such an option in Altirra; I would love to have it there too. Did i miss something? Thanks M. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flashjazzcat Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Speaking of Atari800MacX - it has wonderful printer emulation. Has anyone tried Altirra's yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M4K Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 Hi All. Please prompt block(s) Workram for Atari 8-bit that concerned by cheats (lifes, time, health, score, coordinates etc.) Perhaps it 0000-9FFF RAM (main memory)? Thanks advance.

w1k Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 Idea: Some old cartridges needs push off button to continue work.. Altirra this doesnt support, then i cant use this cartridge.. Maybe will be good make boot with some key - hold cart button - if key push off, cart may continue.. translate (VYPNI VYPINAC - push off cart button) when youtube alive, i add video how this carts works on real machine.. ram1.zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marius Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 I'd love to see a Mac OS X version of this emulator. Any chances it will be released in a couple of months? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rybags Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 I'd guess 2 chances: Fat & Fuck-all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heaven/TQA Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 well... I am using Parallels... but my OSX Dev system is WUDSN IDE+MADS+Atari800Macx and if heavier debugging is needed then Parallels+Altirra and after that real machine.

phaeron Posted December 8, 2011 Author Share Posted December 8, 2011 w1k: What cartridge type? Blizzard 16K? Mac OS X... yeah, sorry, I don't own a Mac or do Mac coding, so I'm afraid I won't be able to accommodate that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kr0tki Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 Not really Blizzard. Blizzard/Phoenix cartridges are disabled by writing to page $D5; this one is disabled by releasing a switch, so the only unique feature of the Blizzard mapping doesn't appear here. Such cartridges were popular in CSRS and Poland for use with various utility programs. There were several variations produced. One was using a two-position switch instead of a pushbutton like in this case; the other was using a capacitor instead of a button; the capacitor would dicable the cart after a few (5? 10?) seconds since power on. To enable it back, one would have to switch the computer off and back on, or reinsert the cart. See the cartridges with the "Auto switchoff" mapping in the ROM list for more examples. w1k, what is the "official" name of your ROM? I'd like to add it to the list.

w1k Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 (edited) that cart i modified DOS 2.5 for turbo 2000/4000 and extented memory, better support ramdisk, etc. first version was on tape, later like cartridge on eprom run cart, then I, and DOS Edited December 8, 2011 by w1k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
popmilo Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 I'd love to see a Mac OS X version of this emulator. Any chances it will be released in a couple of months? You can start this emulator in the win emulator Altirra works fine under Ubuntu using Wine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phaeron Posted December 9, 2011 Author Share Posted December 9, 2011 Is there a .CAR type assigned for auto-switchoff 16K cartridges yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kr0tki Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 Nope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rybags Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 Has there been any update in the "standard" since Atari800Win+ stopped evolving 4 years ago or whatever ? Maybe Avery can just take over the standard... maybe start assigning new types from 50, just in case anything not documented pops up.

Kr0tki Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 The .CAR "standard" is maintained by the Atari800 team (not WinPLus), and is still updated, most recently on Sept. 5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
