Title: MULE on Atari 800XL?
Post by: Rotwang on March 01, 2012, 21:41
Hi,

I've played MULE on my Atari 800 for many years, but I can't get it to run on an 800XL I bought on eBay.

The Atari Translator disk allows MULE to load on the 800XL, but it doesn't recognize the joysticks.

I see from posts that other people run MULE on an 800XL; so what am I doing wrong? 
Is there an updated version of MULE for the 800XL?

Many thanks!

I don't think a translator disk is required to play MULE on an XL.  Just hold the option key (to disable basic) while turning on the computer and it should work dandy.
