This forum is for discussions related to the Atari 16/32 Bit Line of computers. from the original ST to the Atari Clones. http://www.atariforums.com/list.php?8 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 05:17:52 -0400 Phorum 5.2.18 http://www.atariforums.com/read.php?8,6882,6882#msg-6882 http://www.atariforums.com/read.php?8,6882,6882#msg-6882 I'm trying to program a program to run another program.

I have created this front end on my computer
for almost all games that are on my computer.

However I come across a small problem
when it comes to STEem and Hatari.

To make these Atari games run as soon as the emulator started
it looked like I had to put all games onto disk images
but some I couldn't set as auto programs
and some are larger than a regular disk.

With the help of someone I programmed something in AHCC
that would load another program/game from the harddrive.

It seemed to work when running it normally
but when I put it into the C:\AUTO folder
alot of the games it tried to load (reading paths and filenames from a TXT)
did not seem to load properly.

The only hint I got was from Nishiran.
It said "Please insert disk 1 and press a key."

This sounds like it can't find its home folder
before the GEM/Desktop is loaded.

I'll post the code here: [pastebin.com]

If anyone can help
it would be muchly appreciated.

Two castles, a mountain in between, cannons, wind and limited resources and inhabitants which have to be managed.

Ballerburg proves that simple game concepts are also the best.Beat the enemy kingdoms castle by hitting its well guarded king. For each cannon shoot, angle and amount of used gunpowder has to be adjusted wisely. Changing wind and the fact, that cannonballs and gunpowder are limited resources make the battle even more interesting. As the own inhabitants are paying taxes, this money can be used to rebuild cannons and walls or buy gunpowder, cannons and derricks. But don't tax them too much, otherwise your people might join your opponent.

I am looking into running atari softwares on some Apples!

I have :

Powerbook 180 and 3400c
G3 and an 8500

I'd like to run Atari Xe and ST software on them, has anyone got any good solutions?

I have been looking at

Magic Mac
NetBSD / Hatari
FreeMint / ?

as possible routes!

Also any information on music/tracker software on these Apples or developement software that I can use cross platform c/Pascal/asm/etc. Would be gratefully appreciated.

Kind regards

I wanted to make some advertisement for an browser project for the more modern Atari machines.
The main target is to provide an reliable, modern browser for the Atari Coldfire machines (acp.atari.org),
but also for CT6x and Atari Hades (etc.) users this project is intersting.
The browser that is used for this target is NetSurf (www.netsurf-browser.org).

This is what the website says about netSurf:
"Small as a mouse, fast as a cheetah and available for free. NetSurf is a multi-platform web browser for RISC OS, UNIX-like platforms (including Linux) and more.


Whether you want to check your webmail, read the news or post to discussion forums, NetSurf is your lightweight gateway to the world wide web. Actively developed, NetSurf is continually evolving and improving.

Written in C, this award winning open source project features its own layout engine. It is licensed under GPL version 2."

Netsurf offers several GUI frontends, some of them are very easy to port.
For the PoC the SDL Version of NetSurf was used.

Currently this project mainly passed the PoC phase successfully.
Altough some people reported networking errors ( which can be avoided by using an proxy), this is an simple but working release.

Haven't got SSL running successfully yet, but the browser & network layer supports that.
It also supports HTML 4.0 and it's strongly going toward HTML5 and JavaScript ( altough the road to java script is long).


The next project goals are the following steps:
1 get rid of the networking problems (low priority, as it works with an proxy and it does not
trigger with my current setup.
2 successfully use SSL websites with the SDL version
3 create an port that better integrates into GEM, this requires an complete port not just some
adjustments to an current version, so there will be alot code to do ...

Heres my project page with further details:
[nic-nac-project.org]

Everyone is invited to get into the development / testing / documentation etc. !

Thanks for reading,

It's an offline gaming league where we play classic ST games. Every round runs for two weeks. Every player can submit as many scores as he/she wants. After the round, every player is awarded with points (first 8 points, second 6, third 4, fourth 3, fifth 2 and all the others 1 point. After the season is over, whoever has most points wins the tournament.

Please note that this is no gaming league just for hardcore gamers so almost everyone can score to top three.

This season we play many old classics like Switchblade 2, Super Cars 2, Lethal Xcess, Arkanoid, Wizball and Turrican 2.

Game for the first round is classic Paradroid 90.

Please join us at Paradroid 90 high score page and submit your score with screenshot. You can play either with emulators or by using a real hardware.]]> Marakatti ATF - 16/32 Bit Area Wed, 07 Oct 2009 07:03:07 -0400 http://www.atariforums.com/read.php?8,3529,3529#msg-3529 http://www.atariforums.com/read.php?8,3529,3529#msg-3529

The first starts up but just before the green desktop shows up it chrashes and you see the little bombs ,is there a problem with my Tos or has it been wiped out in my ram. when you load a game it works fine! bizar! it all started when i took out a disk while it was still starting up! (idoit!) is there a way to repair it?
then the second one: another smart idea of mine: i opend the machine witch is stupid , i closed it again started it up
and heared a crackling sound and that was it it went dead.....
