Please advise.

Hmmm harder than I thought. got a bunch of samples which play well..Not 5200 though. Tried to create folder>appdata a52 then renamed .ataria52.cfg, then renamed roms but none work for me.
Not using basic.
Please advise.

I will report this to you:
Very familiar interface w/2 files included = defender.bin and zaxxon.a52.,,the .bin file runs but it is a 800 rom... zaxxon no boot..renamed to .bin but 'rom not loaded'. Then went to appdata>[created new folder]= 5200 roms, no success. ANy other game file in original appdata>rom folder that is 5200 game will not run....zip,.bin,a52, or w/ file name shortened/renamed.
Also noted I used both interfaces/atari menus to try to run.
Please advise if possible.

Figured this out. Thanks for your guidance. My mechanics were incorrect. Forgot I had to eject and insert cart per rom :wacko: . .a52 for 5200 and .bin for 800 work fine. Sometimes it gets problematic to know if a 5200 rom is a 2 chip or 1 chip cart.
worked very well...thanks. I actually like this emulator better than the other Atari 800 one.

Don't forget the other two Atari 5200 emulators on the repo
. I recently improved 5200 controls on my atari800 port and the raw atari++ port also works to some degree.
