Atari 2600 has been ported!! Source is Available!

[999]

Well, Casio E125 owners have something to look forward to, it seems that the Atari has been successfully emulated for MIPS.<br><br>You can download it .<br><br>For fellow ARM users out there, the Source is also posted, so there's still hope yet <br><br>Last modification: 999 - 03/24/01 at 12:12:51

I tried downloading the source but the file appears to be truncated. I've already emailed the author.<br><br>Dan East

Dan,<br><br>Carpediem has ported this to ARM <br><br>I'm playing Pitfall right now, but it appears there are still issues with the main emu core.  I'm walking thru walls, and Carp can do the same on his MIPS.<br><br>Carp, can you post your source?<br><br><br>

[Moose or Chuck]

It says that the walking through walls is a known bug because of the frame skipping. But shouldn't this be in a different board? 999, you're a moderator, I'm ashamed ):( ???<br>Last modification: Moose Master - 03/24/01 at 15:39:54

Moose:<br><br>I'm actively pursuing hosting the Atari Emu on PocketMatrix.<br><br>As for this post, I know quite a few programmers frequent here, so what better way to help get an ARM version out there, and guess what?  There is one now!  Thanks to Carp <br><br>BTW- Kaboom is awesome!  haha BOOOM!!!<br><br>I'll post the EXE after lunch.

[Dan East]

You mean he built an ARM version. That is a far cry from porting a piece of software to a different platform.<br><br>Dan East

Where do you get the sofware to run on emulators? I dload 'em, and cant find ANY software!  Isn't Atari out of business anyway, they have no copywrites?

[Dan East]

You'll just have to search around. Quite a while ago I found a site with a single zip supposedly containing every 2600 game known (504 ROMS in that file). The majority of ROMS are only 4 or 8 kb in size. You can store them all uncompressed in 2.8 MB.<br><br>Dan East

[Dr. Phat]

heh, that is cool.  so are all the games f'ed? like wall walking and whatnot and all that business?

[Dr. Phat]

PONG DOESNT WORK! im mad now!

[Moose or Chuck]

Oh get over it. Why do you want to watch two sticks whack a ball. It's definitely not FUN.

what doesn't work?<br><br>did u lower the frameskip to 1?<br><br>
