#altirra — Public Fediverse posts

@feoh So I'm discovering! I'd avoided #Altirra until now because of the #Wine dependency on #Linux, but actually it runs superbly under Wine.

I thought the native package #atari800 would satisfy all my needs, but now that I've set up #Ultimate1MB in Altirra too, I've got a perfect emulation of one of my original hardware setups. I need to figure out how to set up a separate profile in Altirra with the #INCOGNITO firmware. And get an emulated #FujiNet running too. Dunno how feasible that is on Linux.

a8cas-convert is often great, but I'm finding #Altirra does a more reliable job of successfully turning (ancient) eight-bit data tape audio into a successfully loaded program.

Looks like a8cas-convert has been effectively abandoned since 2015: https://a8cas.sourceforge.net/news.html

The Steam Deck runs Altirra really well!

I did have to configure the controller, and I haven’t tried any games that require a keyboard but I could remap some of the triggers to those keys.
