reifsnyderb Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 Is there a list of software that uses ANTIC banking? I need to test a 1090XL card and need something to run as a test. A demo would work. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess /halt needs latched. I just verified with my 130XE and Video Blitz works as per the youtube video on the 130XE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+scorpio_ny Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 (edited) Hi @reifsnyderb, There was a thread on this topic that lists a whole bunch of other programs that require it. Her it is in case you want more programs to test: Programs that require sep. Antic access... Also make sure you get the correct versions: some of them have been patched to not use Antic access Edited October 29, 2023 by scorpio_ny 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+CharlieChaplin Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 Some A8 programs that (I know) make use of sep. Antic access: 01) AD6502: Arsantica 2 by Desire [demo] (fractal part) 02) Apple II Emulator by Piotr "Artax" Mejer [tool/application] 03) Atariwriter+ XE for Omniview 80 by Atari & Newell Industries [tool/application] (modified version of AW+, especially made for Omniview 80 by Newell) 04) Gr.8 RGB picture show by MetalGuy [demo/slideshow] (slideshow program) 05) TL-Cars by T.L. [game] 06) Video Blitz by Helvetica Bold [demo] 07) (The) Wedge by Ed Bachman [tool/application] (format option!) 08) Kompleks K-12 [game-Teaser] by Bocianu (320k Compyshop) 09) State of the Slayer [demo] by X-Men 10) ??? (one more program, but I always forget its name...) So in almost 40 years (130XE released in 1985) we do have 10 programs that utilize sep. Antic access. Afaik, Kompleks K-12 is the only program that requires min. 320k RAM, while all others work with 128k RAM. NOTE: There also exist patched versions (by Homesoft, HiasSoft and others) of some of the mentioned programs above, that do work without sep. Antic access (e.g. TL-Cars, Video-Blitz and RGB-slideshow). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+scorpio_ny Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 (edited) Hi @CharlieChaplin, Would you happen to know if th games and demos listed work correctly in an NTSC based machine? My experience a lot of demos may be PAL only. Edited October 29, 2023 by scorpio_ny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+CharlieChaplin Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 Well, I am living in PAL-land (banana republic, also known as Germany) and only have PAL machines... thus, I can only test them under emulation. But: - Atariwriter+ - The Wedge - RGB-slideshow - Video Blitz should work with NTSC, since their authors are/were from the US. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
