Preservation bug report forum

A new project has been started which tries to gather all the bad ST-dumps, Pasti images or whatever format so please report the broken stuff there too. It's important and a big task to do, but in the end it can save some precious gamedisk if they can be fixed before time will destroy the disks. Much...

Re: download soccer manager for tt falcon

Hi, You didn't mention what computersystem you use but you can't run STX-files with real Atari.

Re: ATARI PC-1

8088 is 8-bit cpu :mr.green:

Seriously a nice and compact floppymachine built in Megafile box. Can use some ST-peripherals like mouse and external diskdrive. And with it's 8MHz turbospeed runs GEM almost nicely ;)

Re: Rocket Space Game - Work in Progress

Looks nice :)

Is there a landing sequence or is the first shot for animation where the ship is launched to space? Would be nice to see a YouTube video of it.

Re: Searching "Wizard Royal" in B/W Version

Hi,

We have one B/W-version, but unfortunately the first world has corrupted graphics. Seems to work from second one ok though. So because of that we unfortunately can't include that file to our database, but here it is for you to check out :)

Re: Man from the Council ?

Hi and welcome :) Our ST-database is still in early stages so we haven't managed to update every record just yet. I'll have a look when I get home and see if I have the dump. Meanwhile you can download some version from Automation menu 233 -> http://planetemu.net/index.php?section=roms&dat=368&actio...

Re: Games by Serious Software

I added the missing records to our database. Let's hope we will some day see the software too. I wasn't able to locate Bricks from any of the working uni FTP-sites I know of. I have some FTP-backups from late 1990's on CD so I'll have to see if there's something.

Re: Games by Serious Software

Ok, thanks for the infos :)

I've never seen original Starhawk listed anywhere so as you say it might be unreleased. Was it also a vertical scrolling shooter?

Re: Games by Serious Software

Hi Ross and welcome to Atarimania. It's always nice to hear from ST-games programmers :) Our ST-database is still very much under construction so there are still a lot of blank entries. I guess you mean this page (http://www.fortunecity.com/skyscraper/cache/369/serious.html). Big thanks for the tip,...

Re: Worst Jaguar games...

I liked Cybermorph a lot. The atmosphere was great and in Battlemorph even better. And I don't even like 3D or FPS shooters at all ;) But then, I always compare games to similar gaming system. In my opinion there's no point putting Cart-console against CD-ROM ones. It's clear there's no way to compe...
