Stella is a usable, and highly addictive, emulator of the Atari 2600
|
|
VCS system with sound support.
|
|
|
|
Please refer to /usr/local/share/doc/stella (or equivalent on your
|
|
system) for the distribution documents and instructions. This package
|
|
contains no man page so this will be your only reference.
|
|
|
|
If you're at all serious about your emulator then you SHOULD check out
|
|
these URL's in the order they're written:
|
|
|
|
http://www4.ncsu.edu/~bwmott/www/2600/
|
|
http://www.general.uwa.edu.au/u/darrins/2600/roms.html
|
|
ftp://ftp.hackerz.com/hackerz/atari/web/index.html
|
|
|
|
This should get you started and provide you with numerous links to
|
|
other web sites.
|
|
|
|
Most ROM's for the Atari 2600 VCS are, unfortunately,
|
|
copyright. Fortunately two ROM's have been included in this package
|
|
which are in the public domain. Two shell scripts, elk and okiedoke,
|
|
are included which start up the emulator with these ROM's
|
|
loaded. Numerous ROM's are also available on the net (see URL's
|
|
above).
|
|
|
|
If you have any general Atari VCS questions then you might get a more
|
|
fruitful response by posting them to the stella mailing list (see
|
|
stella.txt), as the emulation and questions mailing list won't be
|
|
up-to-date with all things Atari. However the FreeBSD emulation
|
|
mailing list is dedicated to discussing the emulation of other systems
|
|
so don't be shy. Please check Section 25 of the handbook for
|
|
information on the FreeBSD mailing lists.
|
|
|
|
Share and enjoy,
|
|
|
|
