I need some help with this as I no longer have the hardware to play them and would like to use the dumps with a emulator, any help appreciated. Tenstar Game Pack 1 2 : Chess Player 2150 3 : Drivin' Force 4: Live & Let Die 5: Onslaught 6 7 8 9: Skweek 10: Operation Wolf Yogi's Great Esacpe Hook Archer Maclean's Pool Discovey Xtra Terminator 2 : Judgement Day
Some of them are bootlegs, demos with cracks and intros / trainers alot of which never hit the net irc, all made by friends in the early nineties.
Then you'll need hardware, or a disk imager that'll work with Atari formatted disks. Your best bet would be to look on the Atari Age forums - I'm sure it will have been discussed there.
Haha I've got some undumped things for the atari too. From what I remember there's a freeware (or shareware) program that can read amiga and atari disks and allows you to back them up. Can't remember if I ever tried them to see if they worked but I remember backing some up.
Thanks for the suggestions guys, i'll give a it a shot, I remember hearing about that software too but never found the name to it.
In the old days, it required an Amiga external drive with a circuit to parallel. Like I said, a disk imager should copy them, but whether they'll be readable on an emulator is another matter.
He was talking about Atari, not Amiga? I remember the Amiga format was always a pain and needed amiga hardware, but Atari was the same or very similar format as PC's - you could use disks interchangeably (Atari -> PC and PC -> Atari)?
I had both Atari and Amiga irc, these aren't the only ones I have, I just couldn't be arsed listing the whole lot, once i've dumped them it's ok to share in the Downloads section?
Those disks could be a pain... I had some with some kind of copy protection that I could never get to work/duplicate/image
