Styphelus Posted April 19, 2016 Posted April 19, 2016 Is anyone here using Atari800Win Plus to emulate the Atari 5200? I tried setting it up but every time I do, the emulator starts and seconds later a monitoring window that looks like DOS pops up. I have to close the emulator completely, meaning that I can't set it up. How do I stop that window from popping up? Atari800 works (the DOS lokking version) but I'm not able to setup my gamepad and the screen always shows a black bar at the top. If I go into the options window, The screen shits back up and black bar gets removed , but next time I start a new game, I get the black bar again and need to bring back the options menu for the screen to shift itself back into position. I really don't want to use Kat5200 because it only gives me a small window if I use bezels and I hate that.
Styphelus Posted April 20, 2016 Author Posted April 20, 2016 Got Atari800 working full screen with bezels and scanlines. Looks great, however I'm not sure about the controllers. Playing choplifter and the fire button only turns the helicopter around. I can't get the chopper to shoot at the tanks. No real configuration options available on this thing.
Styphelus Posted April 20, 2016 Author Posted April 20, 2016 WOW! 30 views and apparently no one uses this emulator. If anyone out there does use it, how do I configure the gamepad to use the second fire button. All gamepad buttons get mapped to fire 1. I can use xpadder to map it (Shift) but the problem is the button will first act as fire 1 and then fire 2 is quick sequence. I need a way to either disable the gamepad and remap everything with xpadder or just reconfigure that one button.
dougan78 Posted April 20, 2016 Posted April 20, 2016 I removed 5200 from my system as everything I want to play can be played on other platforms. Not helpful for your issue I know but may save you time if you considered just removing it.
knewlife Posted April 20, 2016 Posted April 20, 2016 Using mess here... Not the best compatibility but works most of the time... I don't play so much 5200 just some random games sometimes Sent from my Nokia Lumia 520 using Tapatalk EmuLink (Canal de Youtube) | Main Menu Changer | HyperArchiver Version 0.0.0.17 | HSBezel
Krakerman Posted April 30, 2016 Posted April 30, 2016 Using Altirra much better might want to give that emulator a shot. Sorry haven't used Atari 800 WinPlus in years.
