+SoulBuster Posted April 17, 2023 Author Share Posted April 17, 2023 9 minutes ago, Allan said: If I am remembering right, a number of the early listings do not work as printed. I had to change some of them just to get them work without getting error messages. Some were corrected in later issues but some were not. The set I am making would reflect what is printed in the magazine. The Death Star game is a good example. They look totally different. At some point, I want to gather all the programs on a set of separate disks with all the updates included. Call it something like "Final Versions". 1 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/321959-8-bit-software-a-preservation-effort/page/46/#findComment-5241880 Share on other sites More sharing options...

_The Doctor__ Posted April 17, 2023 Share Posted April 17, 2023 (edited) Yes please don't make use do the later fixes and later type in's to fix misprints and typos, they are normally fixed in later issues or many years later by people who actually used them. Now if someone totally goes on to add their own stuff increasing substantially the program then that's a new version. But there is no harm in having fully functioning the way the author/programmer intended files, that's a certainty Edited April 17, 2023 by _The Doctor__ Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/321959-8-bit-software-a-preservation-effort/page/46/#findComment-5241886 Share on other sites More sharing options...

But there is no harm in having fully functioning the way the author/programmer intended files, that's a certainty It seemed like, at least with first year, Antic was trying to figure things out with the listings, so many mistakes were made. Once they got into their second year, they figured out how to print the listings without too many mistakes. I think this was true with most of the early computer magazines. 1 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/321959-8-bit-software-a-preservation-effort/page/46/#findComment-5241895 Share on other sites More sharing options...
