Not much need for speculation ? The Uno runs about everything, apart from DPC+ and CDF. Those two run game code on the ARM in the Harmony cartridge, and some heavy lifting would be required to get them running on the Uno. Your list ist about correct, but not exhaustive, and Boulder Dash (the demo) should run fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you gentlemen! I didn't realize I wouldn't be able to edit my original post. But if I could, I'd remove Boulder Dash from that list.

This is a valid concern. I never liked having to use a third party utility like Drivesort to sort the files on the SD before using in Harmony. So, after some brainstorming, we have figured out a possible way to sort the entries in the Harmony menu automatically, and if we succeed, this will be in the next BIOS release. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually not that big of a concern. I'm happy to use DriveSort. At the time, it seemed like an extra hassle, but my perspective has changed. The time it takes to move around a bunch of 8k files isn't much. The complaints about Drivesort I'd read were from folks moving large media files on a FAT32 disk. Thanks for making the Harmony Cart available. It's a great time to be a 2600 fanatic! --- also @Thomas Jentzsch, thanks for editing my previous post.

Atari Dogs Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 I was looking at the website for the Unicart, and it says some nonstandard a/v mods may make the Unocart to not work. Does anyone know what those mods are? I am planning to use it on my modded lighr six switch. I have one of the popular mods on ebay. Interestingly enough my Halo 2600 will not work on it. It won't get past the title screen. (It works fine on my 7800.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of us want the most out of our modern 2600 experience, which means: 1.) component or S-video output, and 2.) playing awesome homebrews. RF is something I want to get away from soon. Let me know if you find out any more. I did a search but couldn't find a reference to which mods don't work with Unocart. Maybe he means "all mods" = nonstandard.

Wizzard Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 Is it true that Harmony does not sort the ROMS alphabetically even in the latest firmware version? Also, is it no problem to run both PAL and NTSC games on a modern TV via antenna cable, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Jentzsch Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 The Harmony cart relies on the sorting of the file system. There are tools which sort the files for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, as Harmony is designed to support up to 10,000 files in a single directory, the sorting algorithm should also support large numbers of files (other carts do not even come close to that.) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feels like it's been forever in development Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk Proof that Amazon Prime has ruined society. Fred Q is the developer of the Harmony and Encore. It's a one man show, just like AtariAge and the AtariAge store is a ONE MAN SHOW. And I am pretty sure that Fred has a day job and the the Harmory is a side hobby gig. I can't imagine that he can make a living off of a flashcart for a 40+ year old videogame system. Fred is also developing the Concerto 7800 SD Cart that people have been waiting YEARS for. Like 6-7 Years. He has kicked the Concerto project into higher priority due to finally figuring out some pesky compatibility bugs. Have a little patience. It will happen. In the mean time in you want your games alphabetized download DriveSort or any number of utilities that will do that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prizrak Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 @groundtrooper My apologies sir, thought there was more than one person on this project. That's a bit of a burden to bear for one individual.Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+groundtrooper Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 No problem. I understand that no everyone is in the know or may be new to this whole thing. I just gets frustrating seeing people complain about things. I get more annoyed at people on FB complaining that it's been 4 weeks since they placed their game order with the AtariAge store and their order still shows as pending. Again, it's a one man show and there are MANY people placing orders and all games are built from scratch. No worries. Sorry if I came off a little harsh. I was just trying to explain the ONE MAN situation. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
