MajorDisaster Posted April 24, 2001 Share Posted April 24, 2001 Has anyone attempted to dump this cart? Ever since mine died, I've wanted to play it again and no one seems to have this one dumped. Disaster 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted April 24, 2001 Share Posted April 24, 2001 Hi MajorDisaster - You can download the RiverRaid ROM from AtariAge. Here's the link: Atari 5200 RiverRaid ROM You can also check out the 5200 Emulation page if you don't have an emulator (although I assume you do): Atari 5200 Emulation Page Let me know if you have any problems getting it to run. ..Al 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Major Disaster Posted April 24, 2001 Share Posted April 24, 2001 Al, you might want to check that link to River Raid as it doesn't work (at least not from IE5.5). Disaster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted April 24, 2001 Share Posted April 24, 2001 Major -- You're right, the file was missing. I've fixed the problem so you should be able to download it from the above link. I haven't had a chance to verify that the ROM works, so please let me know if you have any problems. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Major Disaster Posted April 25, 2001 Share Posted April 25, 2001 Hmmm... looks like you guys have the same bad dump as everyone else. If you look at the file, the first half of the file is all 0xFF's. Disaster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted April 25, 2001 Share Posted April 25, 2001 Damn. I wasn't aware that was a bad dump. I'll have to see if I can encourage someone to re-dump it. I don't have the means to do so myself, unfortunately. But considering other Activision carts have been dumped fine, I see no reason why River Raid should pose a problem.. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackjax Posted April 26, 2001 Share Posted April 26, 2001 No need.... AlanD has already re-dumped it. try this copy of the rom. one's a raw dump, the other's emu friendly according to him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MajorDisaster Posted April 27, 2001 Author Share Posted April 27, 2001 Cool. Thank you so much for the link. Disaster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted April 27, 2001 Share Posted April 27, 2001 I'll update the ROM here on AtariAge later this evening. I noticed there are two files in that ZIP and I want to find the one that works before posting it! Has anyone tried these yet? Thanks, ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted April 28, 2001 Share Posted April 28, 2001 Okay, I've replaced the bad ROM dump with the 16K dump. Of course, everyone reading this thread already has a copy of the good image, but hopefully this will save others frustration in the future. Thanks!! ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackjax Posted April 29, 2001 Share Posted April 29, 2001 rr16k is the one that works in emus... rr8k is the raw dump of the game. AlanD said that it needed to be "padded" to work in emus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
