Albert Posted February 17, 2005 Share Posted February 17, 2005 Thanks to the diligent work of Stan Jr., we've just added 66 hacks to the Atari 2600 Hacks section on AtariAge, bringing the total number of hacks online to 265! Hacks are a fun way to breath new life into old games, where the graphics, colors, sounds, and even functionality of a game are modified from the original. You can browse through all the Atari 2600 hacks here. Here's a complete list of the hacks that have been added or updated: A Game of 2600 Concentration Alien Attack Alien Planet Ancipital Atari Shot Remix Atari Softball Automazeon Trainer Backwards Cannonball Berzerk Neo Boom Borg Cannonball Borg 'Em Borg Patrol Borg Wars Budge Pinball Borg Wars Federation Invasion Borg Wars II Borg Wars II (Swirl Torpedo) Borg Wars III Invasion Borg Wars IV Borg Wars Pinball Borg Wars Plus Borg Wars Prime Directive Borg Wars V Sector Wars Borg Wars Wormhole BorgBall Borg's Revenge Bottomless Pitfall C.I.F.S.

StanJr Posted February 18, 2005 Share Posted February 18, 2005 If there are any omissions, errors, wrong BINs, or otherwise, please PM me immediately so I can get that corrected. I'm sorry this was so long in coming, but from now on, there will be quarterly updates to avoid such long waits. We have a very active and exciting hacking community here at AA and they deserve nothing but the best! I'll do all I can to live up to that.

Lauren Tyler Posted February 18, 2005 Share Posted February 18, 2005 Whoa, someone's been VERY busy! Keep it up folks! I'd love to make some hacks of my own, but I don't know where to start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zach Posted February 18, 2005 Share Posted February 18, 2005 Nice work, Stan. I can imagine how long it took you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try here: http://atariage.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=64651 you are not alone! And it was a lot of work, but its my fault it was a lot of work, it could have been simpler, I just let it pile up. And Albert pitched in and grabbed all the screenshots, so he did just as much as I did. But together we knocked it out. 66 is a LOT of hacks. Spring 2005 Update coming soon! more details soon!

Out_of_Gas Posted February 18, 2005 Share Posted February 18, 2005 A big hand to the AA staff, and to those that got these hacks up. Great job. Thanks for putting up with us that changes the hacks every time we look at em too. LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nukey Shay Posted February 18, 2005 Share Posted February 18, 2005 Spelled my name wrong BTW ROL out (refill version - the one that includes an assembly file) is the final BIN of that game...the other zip containing the binary only is one of the WIP's that doesn't count the bricks correctly in multiplayer games, and doesn't have all 64 game selections The "refill version" includes that aspect as game selections, so the player can use it or not. Full list of game selections here: http://www.atariage.com/forums/viewtopic.p...p=696188#696188 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted February 18, 2005 Author Share Posted February 18, 2005 Spelled my name wrong Where is your name spelled wrong? I just looked through the descriptions and author attributions in the database and did not see any, so I must be missing it. Please let me know so I can get it fixed.

Thanks for the clarification, I have removed the older entry, now the "ROL Out" entry is the later "Refill Version". Full list of game selections here:http://www.atariage.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=696188#696188 Thanks, I have added that to the description. It would be nice to turn that into an HTML table that I can add directly to the hack's description. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nono...it was only sort of a joke "Nukey Shay" sounds better than my name. It would be nice to turn that into an HTML table that I can add directly to the hack's description. Might be less confusing considering all those variations Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atari Dogs Posted February 19, 2005 Share Posted February 19, 2005 I know it is a pipe dream, but wouldn't it be great to have a Star Trek multicart with all of the Star Trek/Borg games on it or a Star Wars multicart. There could be a manual with a page or two describing each game and which characters are in it. By the way, If the Star Trek franchise is dead, why are there so many hacks out there?

neotokeo2001 Posted February 20, 2005 Share Posted February 20, 2005 Why is there no BIN file for X3V0LuX?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zach Posted March 7, 2005 Share Posted March 7, 2005 Thanks to the Krokodile Cart, you could have your Star Trek Multicart for $90. Not sure if every game will fit in a single multicart binary, but it looks like most of the S.T. hacks are 4K or 8K. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
