If you now load an Atari 5200 game and it loads to Memo Pad you need to go and change System Type. Look for the line “unzip_rom” and change it to “unzip_and_rename_rom”.Navigate to %appdata%\Kodi\userdata\addon_data\\dat_files and scroll down to the Atari_5200_ZachMorris.If you need to configure your joystick you can do this by pressing F1, scrolling down to Controllers and selecting Atari Joystick from the options menu. I’m not sure if this is due to issues with core configuration or the games just simply don’t work. NOTE: Not all of the games actually work.

Press the fire button on your controller and the game should run. Now when you launch an Atari 800 game from the IAGL menu it should load into a black screen. Look for the line “unzip_and_rename_rom” and change it to “unzip_rom”.Open the file in Notepad (or Notepad++ or whatever XML editor you prefer).Navigate to %appdata%\Kodi\userdata\addon_data\\dat_files and scroll down to the Atari_800_ZachMorris.xml file.Atari 800įirst off the Atari 800 because it’s closer to working than the 5200.

The Atari 800 boots to either the Test Screen or to Memo Pad while the Atari 5200 just crashes Retroarch and KODI completely. Here’s how…Īssuming you already have all of your BIOS files setup in the correct locations and have an “.atari800.cfg” file in your RetroArch folder you may still be experiencing the same issues I had. Following on from the Vectrex post where I mentioned I had a bit of trouble getting the Atari 8 cores running properly through Internet Archive Games Launcher, I finally got them working this morning.
