15 bonuses - 5 musics - 15 graphics - 13 intros - 6 demos - 4 games - 2 wilds

 

This pack contains a disk image in MyDos format with all Atari 8-bit releases
of SillyVenture 2k18. I felt they deserve a good presentation, especially
the graphics and music releases for which no art pack/music disk exists.

This pack comes with results viewer which also acts as a menu from where you
can directly start all releases and read the readmes.

The menu remains memory resident, so you don't have to load it again every
time. This makes watching the graphics entries and listening to the music
entries much more fun, especially on the real machine.
If you use loadable speeders, you have to use the memory area $500-$5ff.
For "SIO2SD TURBO" for example press "OPTION+START" at the boot screen.

 

These are the controls for the menu:
* Pressing any key while the menu is loading takes you to the DOS shell.
* Pressing RESET in the menu performs a cold start.
* Pressing RESET in while a release is running returns to the menu, if possible.
* Further controls are displayed in the menu itself.

 

The following releases have been patched by me for your seamless pleasure:

* 16394 - Now without graphics errors and performs cold start upon RESET
* Burn! - Now loads from DOS 2.5
* Fimbo's Quest - Now loads with BASIC enabled
* No Bank Skank - Fixed after party version
* Onedimensional - Now performs cold start upon RESET
* RainboWomit - Now loads from DOS 2.5
* Seaxteen - Now performs cold start upon RESET
* Pop'n'Drop - Now performs cold start upon RESET
* Rolpower 256b - Now loads from DOS 2.5 and DUP menu
* Silly Venture 2k18 Invitation - Now loads from DOS 2.5
* Sillyvitro 256b - Now runs under Altirra OS
* Truemaze - Now runs under Altirra OS
* We Invite You to Compusphere - Now loads from DOS 2.5

Yes many thanks JAC! Will add this to the much watched collection of SillyPacks.

 

To play the HD Bad Apple I need to get a The!Cart. Does anyone have a link to the abbuc shop? I didnt manage to find it on their site.

Currently The!Cart is sold out but the next run is already in the making.

We will move into a bigger flat - just for setting up an Atari Workspace that includes a cassette drive just for watching Bad Apple HD on the real machine.
