DEBRO Posted June 29, 2001 Share Posted June 29, 2001 This question comes from helping Tempest and Cafeman program the 5200. We have code that will move a player horizontally and vertically based on joystick movement. The code seems logical and it actually works in the vss emulator. When I try the same code in Atari800Win 2.7 and Rainbow 1.36 I get strange results. In Atari800Win 2.7 the player moves to the left when the joystick is to be centered. But when I play Pac-man the joystick response is fine. In Rainbow 1.36 the horizontal movement of our player works fine but the vertical movement is unresponsive. When I play Pac-man again the horizontal movement is fine but I can only move up and not down. Does anyone know which emulator best emulates the 5200? VSS is a dedicated 5200 emulator where the others are Atari 8-bit emulators which let use insert the 5200 BIOS to emulate the 5200. Are some games recogized by the emulator and treated differently? Any help would be appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
