After realising how long it's been since I last created a Gamebase (mainly due to the fact of a job promotion and my little girl, leaving me with very little free time). I thought I would try another small Gamebase with another very old obscure console.
Although I need some help, I can get majority of games running but some are giving me difficulty which must be blindingly obvious but I just cannot get Gunfighter to run, if you see these links I've tried Atari Age and got no replies, also the guy who has reviewed this game on MESS on a YouTube video.

So if anyone could help me and I will be able to create this, afterwards might look at tidying up some of my previous Gamebases.

I have tried renaming it to a .st2 file to no avail (apparently this what the YouTube guy did ?). To be honest I have no idea how to create a header file, so that hasn't been attempted.
I was thinking I had a different ROM set, but I cannot find any others online.

Not sure if you saw this in the Youtube discussion since it was so small but from 3 weeks ago from the original poster:
Edit: Nice, we posted at the same time. I only mentioned it because it wasn't clear to me reading the Youtube discussion if you had read that post.
Btw, even just a rerelease of your Odyssey gamebase would be appreciated. It is the only one I have looked for that I could not manage to get a copy of.just rename the extension to .st2 it's the same thing.

This is what the header looks like. the rest of the BIN file is identical.
![Image](http://s7.postimage.org/641ng0vex/st2header.png)
Pasted the header into gunfight and it works.
changing the top line [41] [4D] to [3F] [3F] and name of cart in the process.

Thank you .Mad top job as always.
Although......
Hidron, I've reuploaded Odyssey 1 Gamebase as it currently stands (see appropriate thread) like I said will look to tidy it up at a later date.
Although......
Any idea why I am getting Bowling when I press E (or 3) instead of Moonship battle ?
yes, M.E.S.S. v0.146
F3 to clear,
Q for gun fighter (1 player)
W for gun fighter (2 player)
E for (moonship battle)

Sorry to ask more of you .Mad but would you be able to do the header files for these 3 games as well please ?
http://www.datafilehost.com/download-ec4ce6e7.html
I've got the other available games in ST2 format so they are OK.
Also regarding the 5 built in games, any suggestions to amend the MESS script just to load MESS into the desired system without booting a image ?
Add_CLP(studio2 -cart %gamepathfile% -joystick -skip_gameinfo -nowaitvsync -window)
Run_Emulator()
; -newui
I tried deleting the -cart %gamepathfile% part of the script, but it wouldn't work.
Thanks for all your help

Want to put on record big thanks to .Mad who has really helped produce this Gamebase after I ran into numerous issues, which he helped resolve with no quibble and gave the Gamebase his usual high level of polish.
So here you are, you too can now experience one of the worst consoles ever made !
Will provide an update if/when the missing cartridges getted dumped.
