oesii Posted May 16, 2004 Share Posted May 16, 2004 Are you sure it was the 8bit game? There's a game called Football Manager by Addictive games: Atarimania Page And a ST game with the same name by Addictive: http://www.atari.st/view.php?id=638 The first 8bit one is a cassette game and I'm not sure if it's been dumped, I don't have a copy, the ST version should be easy found on the first couple of Automation disks: http://steem.atari.st/automation.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oesii Posted May 16, 2004 Share Posted May 16, 2004 I couldn't find an 8bit image on the net either but if you're willing to go to the dark side http://s64.emuunlim.com/gameinfos/football...ballmanager.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a game called Football Manager by Addictive games: Thanks that's the one, I got the company mixed up , knew it began with A I had a copy of this on cassette but it never worked, I bought it from a dodgy store on the market and I think it was a very bad pirate, I remember it had a very weird loading noise. I've played the game on just about every other 8bit platform (BBC, Amstrad, Spectrum, C64) but never the A8. I may still have it somewhere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdh Posted May 19, 2004 Author Share Posted May 19, 2004 Hi i have this game on cassette, but do not have any way of transfering it to ATR Not sure how this is done, I've downloaded atr versions of all my cassette games, those buggers only load 50% of the time anyway Maybe someone here can shed some light?

bjk7382 Posted May 19, 2004 Share Posted May 19, 2004 those buggers only load 50% of the time anyway I find that if you don't have the tape drive hooked up thru the disk drive you have better chances of a good load. Just connect the tape drive directly to the computer and it may help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomDarth5 Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 Hello, I recently picked this up on Ebay but am having some trouble loading it. As far as I know it's a game coded in basic so when 800xl loads up you type RUN "C:" but I just can't seem to get it to work properly Any help / tips guys am I doing something wrong? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+CharlieChaplin Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 Hmmmm, allthough the manual says you should use RUN"C:" you may have to use CLOAD. I remember that a few commercial Basic tapes said one has to use RUN"C:" when it was in fact CLOAD (and when READY appeared one had to type RUN). Maybe this is one of these few tapes ? If it still does not work, keep your original tape + manual and download a working CAS from the internet, e.g. from atarimania. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_The Doctor__ Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 don't forget sometimes you had to use ENTER "C: ...... so many ways to cassette... hold start while powering up bzzzzz press a key RUN "C: LOAD "C: CLOAD ENTER "C: manual covers most of the loading running and saving methods... not all proggies are basic either then you gets option keys involved or shutting off basic... some require you not have a DOS loaded to work either 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
