Leonard, the current author of SainT, is just coming to send an e-mail about the new version of his emulator. According to the beta version he sent some days ago, the program now offers better quality with digisounds. Take an ear to the digi screen from the Cuddly Demos, it deserves a listening.
Here are the changes:
1.80
* New powerfull digit-sound volume register caching technic. No more noise in Digi-Sound !
SainT sounds better than ever ! ( Thanks to Paulo Simoes for nice talks and ideas )
* Adding STEREO sound support ! ( for STE stereo sound )
* Powerfull and "no click" 0 dc sound adjuster
* 68000 Prefetching mechanism re-written to support more protection code ( sprite record by Phantom )
* Re-written disk controller stuff from Assembler to C++ for future extension ( Pasti )
Good news! SainT v1.80 is available on Leonard Homepage.

D-Bug 185 was released yesterday (1/11/04).
Nothing ground breaking but another uncracked game gets the Showaddywaddy treatment. Plus a nice new CJ intro adorns the disk.

Hi everybody,
Brume just managed to upload all games ever published by Loriciel. That's 52 ST classics in total. To download them, you will need to be logged in, of course.
We would like to thank the people at Loriciel to give us their permission to publish them freely for the fans! Thanks a lot.
Let's save some history, people!

Hello everybody,
Atari-Forum has been shut down temporarely by our host. It seems in the past few days the site eat up to much recources, 85% of the whole CPU power of our hosting server. Other sites suffered from this. It seems we've been a victim of googlebot. Limitation software for seach engine crawlers will be build in ASAP, so this never happens again.
This downtime has got nothing to do with the complaint which was filed a month ago.
Sorry for the inconvience!

Ijor had some remarkable news the other day:
Pasti is a software package consisting of imaging and preservation tools for Atari ST software.
Pasti.Dll is the emulation helper tool. It extends Atari ST emulators, adding support for extended disk images. These disk images support exotic, custom, and copy-protected formats. You can now use emulators to run ST software in its original uncracked form. At this time, Steem 3.2, recently released, is the only ST emulator supporting Pasti.
Pasti.Dll is the first component of the package released to the public. It is still in beta, but it is stable enough for going out of closed beta. It is available at http://pasti.fxatari.com/ . A short preliminary documentation is included.
There are no images of games available to download at that site. The only image available is the Union Demo, a wonderful but copy-protected demo. The demo is not fully compatible with STe computers, and then it needs the –stfmborder option to run correctly under Steem.
Some images of copy-protected games will likely be released shortly on the usual ftp sites. Please don’t ask, we don’t distribute game images to the public.

After the issues of september, we decided to remove all games from the site. That was bad news for all game lovers. But today, some of them are getting back online!
We have contacted many editors in order to obtain the rights to make them available. Some kindly answered it is ok. At the moment we have got permission to publish the games from the following developers :
- Lankhor
- Carraz
- Loriciel
- Generation 5
Only the games from the first team are online at the moment, but the rest will follow soon. If despite our efforts someone feels injured with a game he created, please get in touch with [url=../contact/contact.php]us[/url] first.
We like to thank the friendly people from the teams above already for their support! This way, their classics can be enjoyed by the public, and will live forever. That is what we like to do.
Also as a gift we offer a very rare game: Star Trap. The french community is after this game for many years. Here it is. Go on the Star Trap page, and download it! But remember you need to be logged in!
We are planning to release more games soon. Maybe on weekly basis. It will be announced here. The whole Atari Legend team is working on them at the moment!
Enjoy it!
When I finally made it past mission one (and God knows how I pulled that off), I was amazed that in mission 2 the game turned almost in some kind of flight simulator. Just … EPIC! Yes, we have missions on different planets and this is really cool. But the same problem is still apparant. Where are the targets? What should I do? Reading the manual doesn’t help a single bit.

Read the review of EpicRumours say the operating system of the ST, called TOS, is short for "Tramiel Operating System".
