[Build Your Own Greeting Cart! Can you type MAKE?]

The URL to the technical part of the manual seems to function no more... is there a place where I can get that? Has it been taken to another place?

 

It was taken somewhere else in 2004, then it was lost in time (besides of archive.org.).

Here's what it was. Sorry for no pictures, I can't help that.

[Build Your Own Greeting Cart! Can you type MAKE?]

I have decided to go into full production with 'GreetingCart'.

...

For the short term, I'll be happy to do image conversion for people free of charge. But this will only be for a week or so. So be quick, and be polite.

 

So I could just PM you an image, or...?

[Make Flickering Images (NTSC)?]

I've seen it happen, but I want to know if there's a program or something that can take an image and convert it to a Atari ROM.

For example, there's like a GIF conversion with a swirling spiral somewhere for the 2600.

[how is basic what is program help]

I'm trying to make a simple game thing in visual bb but noooo

 

In z26 and Stella it's just a black screen.

 

am I stupid or what because I have NO idea

[Princess Rescue Binaries Released!]

i am playing this in an emulater and i cannot figure out how to use fireballs

 

edit: i forgot that all 2 button games do not work on an emulator.

Press Up.

["Flappy Bird" on the C64... now for the TI!]

How do I load this into Extended Basic?

Can't figure it out

[Lego game for kids (or lego enthusiasts?)]

Also how about save data?

I think it would be like Data > Letters/Numbers

and you had to write it down,

and to put it back in, type what is in the paper

[Lego game for kids (or lego enthusiasts?)]

Cute

That part, just... .

[Lego game for kids (or lego enthusiasts?)]

I made a Classic99 "Macro" for it.

Copy the text, make sure you loaded "LEGO2.BIN" into "DSK1", and do Edit>Copy (don't use DX)

Make sure you do this at startup, because that's why " 2" is there and "2" is for loading Extended Basic (must load Extended Basic cartridge too)

then "OLD DSK1.LEGO2.BIN" loads it, "RUN" runs it.

The rest is for controlling the program. I hope I explained it good enough for most people to understand it

 

Edit: Here is another (It has a border this time, and the other instructions above this text apply.)
