Robbbert Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 I'm in the process of verifying my collection of Atari 7800 roms in MAME to see what works. Most of them have the A78 extension and header, and the results are quite positive. However, there's some roms with BIN extension, these appear to have no header, and MAME rejects them. Since there's no header, is there a default bunch of settings for these BIN files? I'd like to incorporate proper BIN support, if I knew what the default settings should be.

Robbbert Posted March 18, 2021 Author Share Posted March 18, 2021 Found out for myself that's it's most likely to be "type 0" - most of my BIN files work with that. Sorry for wasting your time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robbbert Posted March 19, 2021 Author Share Posted March 19, 2021 (edited) @DrVenkman: thanks, it looks quite comprehensive. Meanwhile, I finished my testing, and found 323 working .A78 files, and 10 not working - which is pretty good. The BIN files of course were rejected because of no header.
