To: Info-Atari16@naucse.cse.nau.edu Does anybody out there remember this arcade game, done with vector graphics like Asteroids? ANALOG magazine made a version called Bacterion for the 8bits. Very simple game, but addictive. Does a version for the ST exist? It would be nice to play it on my machine so I wouldn't have to tie up my roommate's 130XE. If anybody has seen or heard of anything like it, I would definitely appreciate some info on where to get it.

To: Info-Atari16@naucse.cse.nau.edu I've tried to focus my SM124 because it's very fuzzy in the corners, moderately fuzzy at the sides and top, and not exactly sharp in the center. I've located the "Focus" adjustment on the circuitboard, and found it to have little or no effect throughout it's 1.5 or 2 turn range. I twisted most (all I found... I hope there's another) of the other adjustments with no better results. I'm curious... do I have to grab the yoke on the picture tube to adjust this? If so... How should I construct a "Grounding probe" to discharge the tube before I fiddle? Also... Once I've discharged the tube, what kind of motion of which yoke (I seem to recall two) would help? Or is there some method of "Coarse" focus that I've not located? Please help. My eyes are sore. jc (cummins@d.cs.okstate.edu) Actually the center of the screen is "good enough".... ------------------------------ Date: 10 Dec 91 07:41:29 GMT From: noao!ncar!elroy.jpl.nasa.gov!sdd.hp.com!spool.mu.edu!olivea!olivey.ATC.Olivetti .Com@arizona.edu (Savino Grillo) Subject: ICD Host Adapt.

Lehett : Atari's, puzzles, games, chaos, fractals, math.... > Well, from checking the file with ARC, the file is a double packed files. The .arc is 4 *.lzh files: pym_a1.lzh pym_a2.lzh pym_b1.lzh pym_b2.lzh each of them is one .msa files, so judge from the arrangement, it would looks like 2 disks set with each side archived with Magic. Anyway, you don't have to use modem to download it, get it FTP to your IBM and unarced it, then copy the 4 .lzh files to ST disks would do. (sorry for this long, the rn won't take replys shorter than the included origin file ).

It is supported, but proper function depends a lot of what version of Mac system software you are using. 6.0.5 seems to be the best for Spectre. > Any Mac S/W compatibility problems? Do games work? Copy-protected software and other software that likes to hammer the hardware directly does not work. But over 90% of all Mac-software available works fine. > Midi support?? No direct one.

This renders large portions of the program unusable. At current prices it would be cheaper to buy another computer to run Pro-24 on rather than buy a new sequencer, like C-Lab or Cubase, but it'd be simpler if there was some workaround or fix.
