Well I could care less if amiga has a games base let them stay on there bases and we can enjoy a new atari message base for games! It is necessary for three reasons. One I have source files in C,GFA, and Stos that support game programming! Two there are far more Atari games than there are Amiga games(Now Amiga owners dont get huffy,we have been around longer!) Three most Atari games are unique and have no amiga equivalent! Put another vote in for me for a new Atari Games Base! I have hundreds of PD games for the Atari with no equivalent on other machines,this is mainly due to STOS being out longer than Amos. Hardware Dave putting the 100 vote on this so why isnt somebody doing something about it. At least over a 3 month period we can get this going. Already the comp.sys.atari.tech base has grown rapidly. ****************************************************************************** Hardware Dave at your Service Good movie to see if you like sci fi is " Krull" ******************************************************************************

>I have hundreds of PD games for the Atari with no equivalent on >other machines,this is mainly due to STOS being out longer than Amos. I have STOS and a 1040st with TOS 1.0 and I have intention of getting tos 1.4 unless someone GIVES it to me. (And, no, I don't mean pirating, I mean I don't want it.) I also hear that STOs is incompatible with TOS 1.4 unless yu get some patches. I would love to start releasing some SMALL games for the ST but what I would really like to do is use my ST Replay to get some sounds into my games... but no matter how I try to trick STOS into using the machine code provided with my ST Replay, it gives me a bus error. I have been told it can be done. Now, I would like to be SHOWN with some STOS code--> as long as it is publically distributable. Oh, and I am the administrator or a game-design mailing list... you can send questions to <game-design-request@cs.odu.edu> Thank you. ps: WHAT 100's of games from STOS?
