abradfie Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 I'm looking for some guidance on how to use an emulator that will allow me use the following Atari 8-bit games (designed by a distant relative of mine). Is there a good FAQ on this? The games are: Hawkquest: http://www.atarimania.com/detail_soft.php?...VERSION_ID=2410 Laser Hawk: http://www.atarimania.com/detail_soft.php?...VERSION_ID=2903 Can I run these on a PC, running Windows XP. thanks! andrew bradfield http://www.andrewbradfield.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pps Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 Of course, yo can run it within your XP You need this emulator: ATARI 800Win Plus 4.0 You need the ATARI ROM-files: link on the site above You need the dumps of the games. And you need a joystick connected to your PC to have most reality. The pc-keyboard can be used as very bad replacement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goochman Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 You can buy a Stelladaptor from AtariAge that plugs one end into a USB port and the other has a connection for an original Atari Joystick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heaven/TQA Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 since i got my USB competition pro... i realise how a big difference a joystick is compared to keyboard... last weekend we played with a real competition and c64 katakis...and we failed after 10 minutes...our fingers muscles can not hold on the stress anymore... my fingers are joypad esp. ps2 pads lovers since 1996...........
