Atari ST emulation, baby!

This is a discussion on Atari ST emulation, baby! within the PSP Homebrew and Hacks Discussion forums, part of the PSP Development, Hacks, and Homebrew category; Dungeon Master runs like a charm, Xenon loads and runs fast as hell, same for Rainbow Islands. Had no luck ...

Default Atari ST emulation, baby!

Dungeon Master runs like a charm, Xenon loads and runs fast as hell, same for Rainbow Islands. Had no luck with Wizball yet.

Will check more games. Not really many games for the Atari that hadnt been on the Amiga too, but maybe this emu will get better than the UAE.

So heads up for the guy who has ported this, cant wait to see Starglider in full highres glory *g*

btw. I would love to see a config for assigning keys to the PSP Buttons (for games not using a joystick). And maybe the mouse buttons on the shoulder buttons, that was a good idea in UAE

Runs but then a black box appears on the Ship/Earth picture and it hangs. Probably not a serious problem

Checked Battle Chess (pretty slow, but playable), Super Sprint (fine), Goldrunner (flickery as hell)

Now I see 68000 CPU emulated full speed without breaking a sweat I have high hopes for Dosbox getting playable speed for at least 286/386 level games.

Oh quetz, every thread I have even marginal interest in, you have all summarized for me. You should just be a mod already.

But its a shame I have to keep up all these non console topics, cant understand why not more people are interested in PC, Amiga or ST stuff, we could get some real cool strategy, adventure and (western) RPG games through this.

Outrun plays up and Barbarian won't work either it just loops from the title screens, Rainbow Islands does indeed work well.

Great new version: savestates, two disk drives, fast, mode for cursor keys on dpad (doesnt work right yet) and more.

Tested Space Quest 3, runs really great although a little pointless without a real keyboard. Played Elvira, runs great too.

just extract the package so the CASTAWAY, CASTAWAY% and ATARI_ST are plain in the PSP/GAME folder ón your mem card.

in the ATARI_ST folders you put your roms (disk images) and the TOS.ROM file
