bigmike Posted May 16, 2004 Share Posted May 16, 2004 I can't remember where I got the Atari Goodset file, so I posted it with my other files on my web site. I'll leave it there for a while. I did get all my 7800 bin files from www.atari7800.org They are included in my files. www.midthumbrc.com/cc2/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oesii Posted May 16, 2004 Share Posted May 16, 2004 I ordered a cheap 32mb MMC card from ewiz.com a few months ago after MrRetrogamer recommended them. They don't have the Kingston one I got in stock anymore but they still have others cheap: http://www.ewiz.com/detail.php?name=MMC-32MB http://www.ewiz.com/detail.php?name=MMC-64MB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjk7382 Posted May 16, 2004 Author Share Posted May 16, 2004 I got the kingston one from ewiz after MrRetrogamer recommended them. I went back after people started asking about mmc's but they were gone. Those new no-name ones are a lot cheaper than the kingston ones. I think I paid 17 for the one I bought.

Mot Posted May 16, 2004 Share Posted May 16, 2004 The Good2600 roms that I found the other day were all .a26, but they had no header like the .a78 files do. On the other hand, a lot of them them weren't listed in the pack-in CC2ROMDB.TXT. I downloaded a bigger CC2ROMDB.TXT that someone posted the other day (in the "controller type in CC2 menu" thread), and it recognized over a thousand more of them (mostly PAL). As for the 7800 ROMs, you have to go to http://www.atari7800.org/bin.htm and download the binary versions from there. The files .a26 are the same as bin files! and the menu generator will look at them and see if they match what is in the CC2ROMDB.TXT. As for the .a78 should be the same but I don't know why, but the roms for the 7800 from this site, do not work. Do get them from www.atari7800.org The changes I made in controller type in cc2 menu thread, was just that, I added the controller type to the names of the roms in the CC2ROMDB.TXT. I didn't change the number of roms that it recognizes. It is still there if u-all want the controller type in the menu: http://www.geocities.com/mot505/ctlMenu.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merrick Bill Posted May 16, 2004 Share Posted May 16, 2004 Thanks again for the upload. I see that the Roms are RAR compressed within the RAR compressed file. Did you have to decompress each one individually? Or is there a program that will batch decompress all of them at once? Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RangerG Posted May 16, 2004 Share Posted May 16, 2004 I am interested in a second run if you are trying to gauge interest. Take care, RG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruce Tomlin Posted May 16, 2004 Share Posted May 16, 2004 Google is your friend. I found them on some site in Spain, compressed with a botique archiver called "7-zip". At least the copyright spiders wouldn't have an easy time finding them that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adonis_minus_20 Posted May 16, 2004 Share Posted May 16, 2004 Thanks for uploading your stuff bigmike and mot. This will be a big help when my CC2 finally arrives. Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin42 Posted May 16, 2004 Share Posted May 16, 2004 Must say, big thumbs up to the CC2! I finally was able to get everything set up and testing and it works wonderfully. I haven't explored everything I can do with it yet, but the speed and ease of use is great. Haven't tried putting 2600 games on it (baby steps), but every 7800 game I've tried has been flawless... Very, very happy. :) Thanks Chad, and everyone else who's been part of getting these out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigmike Posted May 16, 2004 Share Posted May 16, 2004 Yeah they were all compressed twice. I dont know why. You can select them all and right click them and pick "Extract all here" and it will decompress them all at once. No problem and it took 10 seconds to do them all.

Virgin as it were since I don't yet have my MMC card and unopened (as it will remain for many years!) Hey, has anyone thought of making an end label for it?

Albert Posted May 16, 2004 Share Posted May 16, 2004 Hey, has anyone thought of making an end label for it?

bjk7382 Posted May 17, 2004 Author Share Posted May 17, 2004 @bjk: P.O.K.E.Y. is all packaged up. Thanks. I figured I would get the pokey in there before I put an end label on it. I was going to make my own, but since Albert already has one, hopefully I won't need to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruce Tomlin Posted May 17, 2004 Share Posted May 17, 2004 Important tip: when putting the MMC card into your CC2, be sure you're actually inserting it into the MMC slot! I managed to slip it into the hole but miss the slot connector. Had to pop the stupid thing open again to get it out. Anyhow, today I've been playing around with getting the serial uploader working. I took the CRC routines out of the W32 uploader and wrote my own command-line uploader. Took me a bit of work to get the baud rate setting working, but I just loaded the patched version of Impossible Mission at 115000 baud. It takes about 11 seconds. A 4K 2600 ROM loads almost instantly at that speed. Anyhow, I'm not going to post the code for a few days until I've had some time to make sure it works well. Another problem I had was that I had to use the /dev/cu.* device instead of the /dev/tty.* device to keep the drivers for my USB serial adapter from locking up due to DTR/RTS/CTS crap. I couldn't even do a simple stty from the command line on /dev/tty.* without it locking up! I guess I didn't have a problem using /dev/tty.* with my Z-80 ICE because its serial port did something with those inputs that kept the serial port happy.

I a canna say if I can a ever recover from a this tragedy! Nice to know that you do have end labels. Are they going to be available? Thank-a youse!
