FujiNet in action on a Mac using Atari800MacX – native Atari emulation, no wrappers, no workarounds!

Smooth, clean, and 100% Mac-ready. Whether you’re dialing into Southern AMIS or any ATASCII BBS, this is the easiest way to go full retro without leaving your modern setup.

southernamis.ddns.net (port 23)
amis86.ddns.net (port 9000)
Nitelite.ddns.net (port 9000)
Fully Atari 130XE + ATASCII optimized!

Let's get some more #Atari8bit games #FujiNet #HighScoreEnabled. (thread)

There are more than 4 dozen High Score enabled games, can some of you help to port some more?

There is a repo for these games:
github.com/FujiNetWIFI/fujinet

One of the games that has been fully disassembled, and builds a working executable, and is ready to have a high score table transplanted into it, is Berzerk.

github.com/FujiNetWIFI/fujinet

It needs a high score table patched in after game over.

One can be grabbed from any of the other games in atari-game-ports, such as Donkey Kong:

github.com/FujiNetWIFI/fujinet

It implements a high score routine that saves to sectors 719 and 720 on the disk, so it can be used and tested locally.

It uses the display list to cut a hole in the screen, for the mode 6 display of the scores. It then loads the scores in from disk. Checks them looking for an eligible slot, and if one is found, grabs the user input and writes to disk. If one isn't found, it simply jumps right to a pause, before tidying up and exiting.

The Makefiles in both dkong and berzerk assemble the code, build the bootable ATR disk, build write-high-score and high-score-enable, and use those two tools to both insert the high score sectors, and to alter the first 16 bytes of the ATR file to indicate that it is high score enabled.

---

Let's start getting more of these games patched and ported, and we'll host them for High Score Enabled sharing of scores!

Big BBSing on Micro Screens

Who says you need a giant monitor to dive into the retro #bbsing

Southern AMIS BBS an #atari 130XE—and we’re connected in style on the Sinclair MTV1, Casio Color TV, and the classic Sony Watchman. Micro TVs, mega nostalgia.

Whether it’s Atascii art or old-school message boards, we’re proving that big retro still fits in the palm of your hand

#Atari#SouthernAMIS #SinclairMTV1 #CasioTV #SonyWatchman #FujiNet #RetroComputing

All of this playing with #modularsynth anf #vcvrack has me thinking.

Given that a plugin exists to expose VCVRack's API via TCP/IP - github.com/JerrySievert/vcv-ht

and #fujinet - I wonder if you could wire in your Atari 8 bit as a part of your modular synthesizer :)

POKEY made some truly unique trills, rumbles and squeaks :)

(Haven't done ANYTHING with this yet, just spitballing)

Prawdziwym hitem festiwalu Pixel Heaven Forward 2025 okazało się nasze Atari połączone z Raspberry Pi z zewnętrzną stacją dyskietek. Dzięki aparatowi Sony Mavica, który zapisuje zdjęcia na 3,5" dyskietkach i zmodyfikowanym przez Bartosza btr programie YAIL dla Atari, mogliśmy wrzucać zdjęcia naszych przyjaciół i gości na serwer i oglądać je na ekranie telewizora podłączonego do Ataryny.
