Latest is pretty good PacMan clone, with optional STE DMA audio instead PSG one (as is on STs), more than 16 colors at once on screen. Seems for me as harder one (or I'm just still to weak). Of course, there are some cheat options.  And in YT video can see count of my hard disk adapt DIRs - 2023, in compilation.
There will be not much more adapts from me . Practically 99% of quality ST games were done already. 
This is last compil. with size of 3.5 (to fit on min 4 GB Flash cards). Next will be 7 GB - what is limit of size accessible with usual TOS versions (1.04 and higher), and that will leave space for many state saves, screenshots, pictures . Not to mention that today will hardly find SD cards with lower capacity (like below 16 GB). Plus real capacity of some 8 GB card is actually close to 7 GB (always some 5-15% less) .
Feel free to write me in e-mail if interested.  petari@8bitchip.info   . Please write about your config - Atari model, TOS version, RAM size, used storage adapters ...

News / The biggest cretenism

When you think that it can't go lower - well, in this times it is wrong. Some are able to achieve it.
AF thread, so wise ...
So, Numero 2 genius started thread with question and immediate answer, all by self, in first post there :-)
But it was not enough idiotism for AF, so genius Numero 1 added link to some DL - called pperror - actually my game hard disk adaptations what some thief took without any asking, permission, and put online (without any real need, as they can be DL-ed from my site fast and reliable) . Of course, his goal was to write bad thing(s) about my work.  And what is worst in all this ? That Atari ST forums allow such assholes to post there.  This so called humankind sunk so low in this century, and especially in last 3.5 years.
And to add for those who don't know basic things, facts - my hard disk adapts have nothing with ULS - everyone can check it. But it is easier to believe blatant lies of C.J. and being shallow.
I did over 1800 games, unlike ULS morons. Because I made support for much more type of Atari ST games.
I did compilations, what D-Bug, Klaz never did.   And what can see on moronic forums ? That they talk about ULS as only hard disk gaming supporting system.  In section for menu disks (what is on floppies :-)  . It was not even first one you morons. There was already Superior FFLS system in 90-es .  You are just total disgusting assholes Muguk and company ...  Enemies of fair information, talk, experience exchange.

News / Re: How to be useless
Last post by Petari - 15-08-2023, 19:02:50
They have no clue
Well, this is worse than being useless.
All knowledge is to try this, try that driver, and like. In case of hardware error or bad config driver change will not help. And nobody mentioned well know disk size limits for Atari ACSI port - well, even ACSI port was not mentioned.

Another one: TOS 1.00 and UltraSatan
First reply by Tillek - 'bad DMA' in early STs - never heard or saw it. Confusion about partition size limits.
And of course, usual blah about how some driver SW works much better than other - what exists, but their criterias are usually obsolete. Or they just don't read manuals (thread starter obviously).
All it is surely not simple, but at least try to stay at know facts, terminology.

So, several months have elapsed, and I still have no answer. No body has ever confirmed finishing the Atari version of the game, except a guy who claimed that he helped Petari to test his HDD version, and which I was able to prove that he lied when he claimed that he finished the game. That guy who was bragging about him finishing the game on Facebook was very rude and suddenly disappeared when we asked him to give us some information. Clearly, he lied, and his only way out was to disappear.

So, I made a webpage about the different versions of the game, and I show some longplays of the PC and Amiga versions. Unfortunately, the Atari version which is the best is still missing a solution. So, I ask again my question: Has anyone every finished the Atari version, either on an actual machine or with an emulator?

Karting GP
Steel Empire

New compil. for TOS 1.00-1.02 is under work. That needs lot of editing, testing, mostly because different partition sizes . Will be ready in couple days.  Well, it is strongly recommended to upgrade TOS in such case - work with mass storage will be much better.
