StyxDS v0.1A - Atari ST Emulator for Nintendo DS

[Metaluna]

hey guys just wondering about the tos.bin file. the one i download is an img file but when i rename it to tos.bin it still remains an image file instead of now being a bin.

Maybe your Windows configuration has extension file hidden and so by renaming your tos, you have in fact something like that : tos.bin.img

Does anyone have the mouse or joystick working on the green desktop? Seems like the author does and many people over at his site.

What is the linker you're using? I know there are some issues with mouse emulation on G6.

that exactly what is happening but i dont know if that is okay or if everyone elses TOS is being renamed like that or if their file is being reclassified as a .bin file and not .img like mine. may just be that the program doesnt like my particular set up ie supercard with compact flash though the same authors msx emulator runs fine but that doesnt mean too much i guess.

That could be it, I'm using the dreaded Max Media Dock , but I must say it hasn't let me down that much so far.
Maybe an update will help seeing as though this is an alpha release. thanks

how do you make it not just rename i but change the extention?
I did it through the DOS but can you chang windows to do it?

And my top screen is still jacked up

hey thanks for any help i was given in here including the hidden file extension problem that was part of the hassle i was having. Now even with that sorted i still had hassles until i formatted the compact flash card and put the emulator on my 'CLEAN' compact flash it finally worked and it hasnt failed on any game i have tried so far. 10 titles all up including Stunt Car Racer , outrun, dungeon master, rick dangerous 1 &2. my only problems so far are those that will be sorted out as the emulator is updated mainly sluggish mouse control and the games speed (which isnt so bad as all the games are reasonably playable and look great particularly stunt car and dungeon master) and sound needs work but at least it is there.
hope the updates come thick and fast as this is one of the most impressive emulators i have tried for the ds.

What’s new ?
In one word : quicker ! (but not yet realtime)
- Auto-frameskip (max 5)
- New screen handling (next version will be ARM asm based)
- Mouse in touchpad mode is quicker.

Awesome, this is so cool.

And I remember someone saying in the forums that 16bit (ST & Amiga) could not be done on the DS!!!

Yes it's quicker alright and works great.

When you've finished this ST emulator - What about an Amiga one. Strangely this seems to be the only major emulator missing from the DS homebrew scene.

How about it - Somebody?

Exellent to see the atari st emu on the DS but can someone give a total STONEHEAD a guide to getting this emu to work please!

I have loads of US and UK tos images and some .st games but can't get the emulator to run on my R4 card.

I have a folder named emulators in which i put another folder called " atari st (test) " in which i put my emulator + roms folder in which i put the tos.bin file and some games but when i load up the emulator it goes all buggy after i press (A) and no games load or any top screen.

So please anyone give me a step by step please

The files MUST be places in the directory

roms/st

the roms folder being at the root of the card.

i was having the same problems until i did this
