Bad Atari disks :(

[+Allan]

I had a bunch of disks that Kevin Savetz graciously copied for me but unfortunately a few of them were bad.

 

They were:

 

APX20029-fig-FORTH_v11_Rev20_17errorsectors.ATR
APX20084_Caverns_Of_Mars_63errorsectors.ATR
APX20135-Jukebox_1_v12_106errorsectors.ATR
APX20142-Text_Analyst_33errorsectors.ATR
APX20146-fun-FORTH_20errorsectors.ATR

The Caverns of Mars disk is not a big deal but the others are harder to find. If anybody has either ATRs of these or actual disks of these and could copy them so that I could add them to Atarimania, it would be greatly appreciated.

 

Many of the APX disks were not copy-protected but Kevin thinks that some of the later ones might have been so it's possible that some of the above disks won't copy because of copy-protection and not just from bad disks.

 

On a side note, it really shows how these disks are not going to last forever and the quicker we can archive this stuff the better.

Fig-forth 1.1 appears to be available already on Atarimania? I know they are calling it Extended there, but the same APX20029 catalog number is in the listing..

Here is a .cas I made of APX10029 and an image if you want.. this also comes up as fig-FORTH 1.1 , same as the screenshot in Atarimanias listing.

It's a little confusing. There are two fig forths.

By Patrick Mullarky

 

I'm guessing that the second is an expansion of the first as apposed to a re-write but I am not sure.

Plus APX never put the word 'Extended' on the Patrick Mullarky fig-FORTH.

Thank you Charliecron and Jacobus.

 

I didn't know Antic put out a updated version of Fig-Forth. Cool.
