How to set up Atari800

[crashdogy]

Was looking to set up Atari800 system in hyperspin can't really find any tutorials on it. Does it use its own emulator with the Atari800 module, if so which one ? I have the Atari 5200 and MESS all setup, does it work with that ?

Any help greatly appreciated

I am sure you can use mess as it supports the Atari 8 bit range which contains the 400, 800, XL, and XE.

Thanks for the info silverback69, do you know of any tutorials on this ? Guess I can setup so hyperspin thinks its Atari 2600 ?

I am not sure on any tutorials. If you have the emulator working outside of Hyperspin for the Atari 800 it should be straight forward to set up as you did with the Atari 2600. I am not 100% sure but it think you will need to name the system 'Atari 8-Bit' to be recognised by Hyperlaunch (Just so the icon shows) and Hypersync (if you use it)

Good luck!

Silverback69 do you know where the game name XML file is ?

Don't think there is an official list but there maybe someone who has already created one otherwise use dons hyper tools to create one.
