IT WORKS! But there are some problems: whenever I load a casette image, it "encounters a fatal error and has to close.".

Glad you're up and running
Which game/.cas image are you trying? There are .XEX versions of most .CAS files on other sites like the Polish one I posted the link to Super Zaxxon on above... (Atarimania has a lot of .cas files as it's trying to host the original media format for each game).

I'm using Super Zaxxon. I'll try loading some other .cas images to see if it's just the file I'm using.

I've just tried the .cas file from Atarimania (1st link) it works ok - make sure you extract it from the zip file and download it to your PC's hard drive first, then manually open it using Autoboot image - double clicking to launch it from the zip will crash the emulator hope that's cracked it

3700 - too difficult for me

[therealbountybob]

and me... well when it gets to level 5

78,100 need to adopt a survival strategy from level 4... it's nice that on each level more stuff shoots you, gives the incentive to see what else happens. Am sure that Dragon is too cute to be the big bad boss!

By the way, how do you attach a thumbnail?

F10 save's a .png file.
At the bottom of the post click 'Browse' and find the file and click 'Open'
Click 'Attach This File'


Hint: Get down low and right straight after the first wall then keep fire held in and let rip, make it to the tunnel for some easy points

Thanks!

ok a8isa1 let the fight begin ;')


p.s. to all the people not in irc last night, i didnt start playing until 11:10 last night, and a8isa1 said i would stir up something with the fine line of starting before deadline but finishing after the dead line :') that was only like my 5th or 6th game played...
