Yea-ha, finally this thread is on target. 😎

Except fur Luckybuck's dump we also have one from Soulbuster. You can find it in his Uploads/Multiformat directory.

Only publically. You don't know the secret contracts between Nintendo and Walnel Gommunigations. 😎

We're getting older. 😎

@tschak909 get it for http://scores.irata.online/ while it's hot. 🔥

Sorry, I was confused. I meant the 65C02. But I guess that you are right that the 6507 has them as well.

"Illegal" is only colloquial. Like others have written already: They are not fully documented and developers are discouraged from using them. And they no longer exist in 6502Cs. From my understanding they are side-effects of how the chip was designed back then.

One gone-bad sector 507 in driver field 2 which cannot be loaded, otherwise it looks OK. Except for 12 sectors your disk is identical to our verified image. Educated guess: The save-game data (driver fields) differ. These problems with getting 40 tracks from the 80 track drive are really weird.

You are right regarding Atari's name but (at least) in Europe design patents expire after some 20 years and cannot be extended plus a desing may not have been published before it gets registered. The XLs' designs date back to around 1983 and therefore have expired around 2003. Plus they obviously have been published before RGL has registered them recently. I guess that this registration will fall as soon as somebody starts a dispute at the EUIPO.

@foft

Can you please take the inlay out of the case and make photos of the whole paper?

Errm, four in their normal colour and two in the being-eatable colour ... ... which makes it only four different coloured ghosts at once. 😎

Post it anyway. I checked your other submissions: Kennedy Approach is identical to the US release, which is common for Microprose. Trailblazer was not yet dumped. It differs very much from Mindscape's US release. thanks again

He does everything possible to hide his published information from the public.

Now this is the exact reason why Atari should be flexible in giving out royalty-based licenses for small-scale commercial developments and generous licenses for non-profit homebrews. Having legal access to the various BIOS and OS ROMs of the old machines for emulation purposes would also be a fine step towards our community which would not harm Atari's sales. Buyers of products like the 2600+ are either mainstream people who want/need something plug-and-play or fans like us who buy it even if we have the same stuff already in five other incarnations. @TrogdarRobusto are this ideas thinkable inside Atari?

@kenp You can also download a copy of PC Xfomer which legally comes with OS ROMs. http://www.emulators.com/download.htm and scroll down to PC Xformer Classic 3.8. You can extract the ROMs from that ZIP.

You won't tell the Master of Divertion. 😈 He just drops his small heaps wherever he walks.

As great as it would be, I doubt this will happen due to the price tag attached to FPGA devices.

Dunno if it helps but @Yellowman tested Forms Generator on a 1050 and received $1C and $EF in DVSTAT and DVSTAT+1 for sector 84 but also for sector 85 which looks good in HXC.

Or they still lie in the now inaccessible vaults of Curt.

Dunno what happened there because the dump is OK. Side B contains the Rotberg Synthesizer demo and its reaction to failed copy protection is to format the disk. Therefore the protection must have failed in your emulator.

Another super-necro bump from team archivation @SoulBuster recently dumped an original disk of SoftSide #34 (1982-10) with Rotberg Synthesizer on side B. I was surprised how heavily protected this disk is; particularly with regard to the fact that it is NOT the synthesizer but only a DEMO containing five pieces to listen. But at least we can now enjoy Disco Dirge "in its natural environment". It contains: NEW COUNTRY -- J. L. Ponty Prelude & Fugue in Cm -- J. S. Bach BOLERO ( unfinished ) -- M. Ravel Pokey Percussion -- L. Actor DISCO DIRGE -- D. Pliskin

Thanks, I had checked the home page but not other forums and was not sure if the information was true.
