KLund1 Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 I am pretty sure there are a few versions of Action! programing language. Small bug fix version changes, is .01, .02, etc. What are they? What cartridge colors do have (orange, gray/black). What version does Atarimania have, and should they not have all the versions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a8isa1 Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 I definitely owned Action! 3.1, 3.4 and the final version 3.6. I didn't keep the old versions. I believe the upgrades were $20/each with cartridge exchanged. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Nezgar Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 I have an orange cart that I've never used... is the version prominent when used, or how do you check? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a8isa1 Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 Enter the monitor by pressing CTRL+SHIFT+M. I believe to display the version number it's '? $B000' (without the quotes). The version is the hex value of a single byte. $36 for version 3.6. Any version other than 3.6 is probably very rare. Sorry, but I might have the command or location wrong. It's been a long while. -SteveS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+slx Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 It‘s explained on the Action! bugsheet. $B000 is correct but the value is just 6 for version 3.6 Bugsheet on Atariwiki On Atariwiki you‘ll also find a patched version newer than 3.6 with some of the errors from the bugsheet fixed.

+Nezgar Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 Yup 3.6 it is! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KLund1 Posted May 5, 2018 Author Share Posted May 5, 2018 Very interesting!! I might be time to do a call out to see what versions are out there in AtariAge. Mine is Ver 3.6, as check by notes above. I can see that it has 2 Action! stickers. One is the small one that is just on the front face. Then the large one that goes over the top and to the back is over it. So this one is probably one that was sent in and upgraded by OSS to ver 3.6 Anyone have one of the black case carts? That might be a different version.
