If you want to try the image on Hatari's website on the macOS version, simply change the extension of the image from .image to .img. To try to prevent unknown files from being selected, the file selector only accepts certain extensions. You should be able to use the sample 80MB hard drive image in H...

Which version are you using? The first version had a problem with 4MB of RAM. From other comments, it appears to be working on actual hardware.

If you at making changes, can you change disabling sound to S? Sometimes, I will press the fire button by mistake and shut off the sound. I do not know if you can also add a key (Esc) to exit the game and go back to the desktop. If that is not possible, that is ok. I have enjoyed playing your game. ...

@KarlH,

This version appears to fix both the resolution bug (having to start in ST Low) and crashing on systems with 4 MB of RAM. I also like the fact that it runs directly from a hard drive. Thanks for changing the game so quickly.

Bob C

I liked the game. I do hope the game is fixed to handle 4MB of ST-RAM or more. The graphics were very cute. I enjoyed the game and found it very playable. I hope Eero's suggestions could be implemented. I noticed the source code appears to be in the Ingredients folder. I extracted the ZIP file with ...

@simoncam - I did read the page. After your reply, I was able to figure out that I needed to hit the space key in order to change the control mode. After finding that out, I was able to play a one player game with CPU players. Thanks!

Bob C

Ok, thanks. I will try that.

Bob C

I saw his comments on AtariAge. It confirms the problem I saw in 2.06. Hopefully, he will have time to work on an updated version that works on US TOS 2.06.

@simoncam - Does Frogs have the option to be a single player game? When I bring up the game, it appears that I have to have at least two human players. I am hoping this is not the case.

Yerzmyey,

Thank you for checking into this.

Has anyone tried on US TOS 2.06 yet? I am curious because I was going to send it to my Atari retrogaming group. Unfortunately, if I use US TOS 2.06, the game will switch to 50Hz but it will lock up when you select the language. Unlike our club president, I do not have an ST at my disposal so I have ...

I would contact MacRorie at https://www.thebrewingacademy.com. He makes the Ultimate and UNO carts for Atari 8-bit computers.

As far as the first question, stm and stx flies are copy protected images. I do not think they are supported by MIST. I do not own a MIST myself though. I would take the suggestion of the previous poster and use an earlier TOS version. 2.06 had compatibility problems with software that made incorrec...

I would try using the right-click (control-click) and select Open from the contextual menu. You should not get a Gatekeeper eero since you compiled it yourself, but it would not hurt to see if some other message appears.

I just wanted to mention this does not occur on all retina Macs. I just tried EmuTOS and TOS 1.04 on my 2016 Retina MacBook Pro and I see black bars instead of red.

I am also using SDL 2.08 and Hatari 2.1.

Bob C

The A and B refer to the emulated ST, not your PC drives. There was a comment on the development list asking if the path could be made editable in the SDL file selector. While not as convenient as drive buttons, it would allow Windows users to access files on a different drive letter. I have no idea...

Since Hatari developers all use Linux, the file selector does not understand different drives like Windows uses. For the Windows version of Hatari, I think you will have to keep the program and all supporting files on the same drive. In the past, the developers have not been interested in supporting...

Unfortunately, I cannot help you with creating the disks. I have not had a floppy disk drive for about 10 years. Hopefully, someone can help you out,

Bob C

It looks like you can use JayMSA (http://jaysoft.atari.org) to extract the files from the MSA archive. You will need to copy the MSA file to your Atari before using JayMSA. Once you have extracted the files, you can copy them to floppy disks. If you do not have a hard drive for your ST, I am assumin...

I assume the question is regarding the source code to Geneva and NeoDesk and not simply the binaries. I am only guessing that "real life" has gotten in Dan's way regarding the release of the source code.

Bob C

I am not a hardware person, but if you are using the switch box (RF) that came with the 130XE, you would need to be able to connect the old connectors to a current coax connection. If you have done this, I would check that the channel switch matches the channel number on your TV. The simplest soluti...

Have you inserted GFA Basic into Drive A? I do not see where you have opened the drive to see GFA. If you have GFA Basic on a GEMDOS drive, you could use the Install Devices command to see those drives. However, it would be easiest to start with if GFA Basic was on an ST image that you inserted into...

Glad to see this done and I donated to the Gribnif page but I sure wish it was in a native format instead of .ST... :( 'unpack' it in an emulator. Understood - but I don't "do" emulators. :roll: If you have a Windows machine (or run Wine in Linux), MSA Converter can extract the files from the ST im...

Dan,

Thanks so much for releasing Neodesk 4 and Geneva. It definitely brings back nostalgic memories. I was happy to donate to the Gribnif "tip jar" for the memories that your products brought to me when I was an active ST user.

I have a problem with the cursor (also in previous version). There are 2 cursors visible and neither is able to cover the whole window. I have to resize the window and then all is working as expected. Using High Sierra. How can I solve this? Am I the only one? Depending on your usage, the easiest m...
