+JAC! Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 (edited) Finished listening espisode 6 and 7 and today. Once again a great job guys. I'll go and download those Intellivision podcast right now for my 2h ride back home. I'm really curious about that guy's wife :-) In fact I was wondered about the capbilties [EDIT: of the console, not the wife of course]. As member of the The!Cart team (and author of The!Cart Studio) I'll provide you with some more detailed information about the device, it's usage and purpose, so maybe you can use that next time.

And thanks again Brad, Kevin and Randy! I enjoyed being a guest on the show. Edited January 31, 2014 by nurmix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+wood_jl Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Downloading, now. I just recently listened to the 6th one, with Xmas, etc. I was very sorry to hear about Savetz's dad, but I really enjoyed the story about the dude who wanted the TV who worked at Atari and lived nearby Dad; it was very light-hearted and pleasing to hear. Thanks, guys, and keep up the great work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtariDude Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Regarding the show at the end where they were talking about the program that allows you to set up programs to be picked from a list without going to the dos screen, I can remember back in the day that I had a program called "LeMenu" which a friend of mine gave me. It allowed me to just place the binary files along without the dos.sys and dup.sys files to save space. The diskette would then auto boot and show the programs that were there. My memory is fuzzy but I think it gave them numbers and I would just hit a number on the keyboard to run that program. I could be wrong about this cause it has been like 30 years since then.

There was one I used a lot that had the Fuji symbol and rotating colors at the top and choices at the bottom. IIRC it only took 2 sectors, but its been a while.

I had something very similar that I briefly mentioned on the show. I don't currently have my A8 stuff set up, but if memory serves, the menu I had used only a few sectors, didn't require DOS/DUP, and didn't show up as anything if you looked at the disk directory. Any games or programs you copied to the disk had to have a .RUN extension, and they would show up as text, highlighted with a colored bar that you could move with the joystick, and select with the button. We would just copy that disk when we needed a new "menu disk". Not sure how it worked it who made it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+JAC! Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 That Intellivion podcast was entertaining. Just downloaded the other eposiodes for my longer car rides. And I just remembered that I had recently scanned some childhood memories and that there also is intelivision on them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigerduck Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 (edited) Hi Antic-Team, since I know about your podcasts, I really like long car rides again... Cruise control mode on and relax. No commercials, no interruption just plain ATARI-Entertainment (with a little TI99/4A ). Keep up the good work!

+JAC! Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 Is there any way of voting for you guys on iTunesStore without installing that iTunes program? I love the podcast, but that's a route I want to avoid? How about a facebook page where people can vote and comment, too? ("even" the Intellivisionaries have that) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snicklin Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 I always find it amusing when I'm walking down the street with my headphones in and all of a sudden the Atari loading beeps start. I must admit, I quite enjoy it! Suggestion for future episodes: More beeps please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ilaskey Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Did anyone else notice a deep hum through one long segment? The sound in general was pretty muddy, someone had a duff mic maybe too. Good interviews again. How about interviewing Bradley @ Best? Might be interesting to hear how he got all that stuff! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fletch Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 I think the hum is from Randy's microphone. I heard the same hum listening to the last Floppy Days podcast as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DjayBee Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Dont break the episodes up into more episodes as discussed. Thats what the pause button is for on playback. +1 Great would be some sort of "playlist" where one can find out which topic starts when.
