Rom Hunter's V6 Old Era Collection Now Online

[Rom Hunter]

http://www.atarimania.com/rom_collection_archive_atari_2600_roms.html

 

Also included is a map of 1977-1992 NTSC versions of PAL originals.

 

No post 1992 conversions, though (I want to keep it clean), but you can download these here:

and here:

BTW: It would be great if Albert could move these last conversions to the Conversions list.

 

And if you're interested in the latest changes, I'm sure Franzman can create a list for you and post it here.

 

Enjoy!

For all the historians among you, here's the history & info of all my older Old Era collections:

Thanks! I will go through my lists based on this new allembly of roms.

I do have one request. Can a different character be used instead of the tilde? "~". It is a wildcard character in windows, and not able to be searched on normally.

Exelent! Thank you sooooo much!

Maybe you need to get a better operating system?

I was wondering how long it would take for this...

PLEASE don't suggest Mac! I deal with those enough at work. And Linux is too limited universally in what I do, plus I don't want to learn yet another OS. (the myriad versions of windows are enough)

Thanks ROM for all the work you do on this. It makes emulation and Harmonizing easy.

I was initially thinking Linux, but if you must stick with MS, perhaps DOS? Or if you're brave enough, Apple ][?

You can search on it, but if you search on it by itself your search returns every single file with a LFN, as well as any 8.3 named files that happen to contain it.

 

To return only files containing a "~" in the LFN in Rom's collection, search instead for "~.bin" (no automatically-generated 8.3 names of LFN files will contain that sequence).

That is a great idea! I should have tried it! What I did was use a mass file renamed.

Thanks for your hard work and well done!!!

Done.

Also, as long as I had the tools at my fingertips, I verified that every .bin under the HARMONY CART ROMS folder hierarchy is in fact a clone of a file in the root level, so anyone who prefers the longer filenames can safely ignore or delete the entire Harmony folder and rest assured he's not deleting something that he doesn't already have in the larger set.

 

EDIT: Fixed "=V6 Clones.txt" (about half of the .bin extensions were inadvertently stripped from the filenames). Only two people downloaded the file before I fixed it.

That's correct.

 

Thanks for the V5-V6 changes update.

Oops, another fix: I left out the intro text from the "=V6 Changed Name.txt" file.
