Use the character disk from the dump here: http://www.atarimania.com/detail_soft.php?...&VERSION_ID=238 You can also create a blank disk with the emulator. -- Atari Frog http://www.atarimania.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carmel_andrews Posted April 14, 2005 Share Posted April 14, 2005 [the only emulators i am aware of that allow you to create dos/boot blank atr's is anything compatible with atari 800 win/atari 800 win ++ (or emulators that uses the same engine) I also understand that the rainbow a8 emulator also allows you to create empty dos/boot atr's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

8BIT 1337 Posted April 14, 2005 Share Posted April 14, 2005 It's kinda buried: Hit Alt-D to bring up the Drive menu (also available under "Atari - Disk Drives"). At the bottom left of the dialog box you'll see a button called "New Image." Press it to get another dialog box that allows you to specify the formatting and size.

Does it make a difference to anything what formatting i pick? Do some games only accept certain sizes of disk? Thanks all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carmel_andrews Posted April 15, 2005 Share Posted April 15, 2005 to be on the safe side, just use the two standard formats i.e, single and/or medium density... very few games support double density for game saves, unless any of those polish/european games do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
