Atari 5200 Guy Posted July 15, 2022 Report Share Posted July 15, 2022 I'm asking for help on this one. I was going to try Star Raiders for ST computers. The one I have came from the archives and seems to be corrupt. I tried the one from Atari Mania and it is in the STX format which keeps me from putting it on a floppy disk. Does anyone here know of a good image of this game, either ST, STT, or MSA extensions that I can use to try his game? Please.

RickR Posted July 15, 2022 Report Share Posted July 15, 2022 I will e-mail it to you. I have one that works for me in "ST" format. Atari 5200 Guy and DegasElite 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari 5200 Guy Posted July 15, 2022 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2022 Looks like I'm going to have to perform a repair job on my ST's disk drive. DegasElite 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari 5200 Guy Posted July 15, 2022 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2022 Good news: my ST is fine. Bad news: the floppy drive on my XP system has went out. Lights on, disk spins, head moves, but it can not read or write a disk. Trying to format a disk just exits the command after a few seconds. I tried cleaning it and still nothing. So until I can find another drive I can't make any more game disks for my ST. 😐 RickR and DegasElite 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickR Posted July 15, 2022 Report Share Posted July 15, 2022 No promises, but I'm sure I have an extra 3.5" floppy drive around here. If you want to pay for shipping, I can send it your way. We cannot have you without new ST games! Atari 5200 Guy and DegasElite 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too bad floppy drives can't be sent by email. DegasElite and RickR 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
