CBM prg Studio Version 2.0.0 Beta released. There are a lot of new features in this version, which is why it has been released as a beta. I’d really appreciate it if you report any bugs you find or have any suggestions/comments.

Note that because it is a beta version it can be ran from its own directory, there’s no need to uninstall your current version of CBM prg Studio.

CBM prg Studio allows you to type a BASIC or Machine Codeprogram in using a nice Windows environment and convert it to a ‘.prg’ file which you can run on an emulator, or even a real C64 or VIC20 if you’re feeling brave and have the right kit.

CBM prg Studio is the result of merging C64PrgGen and VIC20PrgGen. Adding new features and fixing bugs in two apps which were 95% similar was a bit of a nightmare so merging them made sense.

It was also a good opportunity for a face lift and to add some new features, such as:

• Programs are project based, meaning all related source files, sprite files etc. are kept in one place and multiple source files can be linked more easily.
• Tabbed MDI.
• Syntax highlighting.

What CBM prg Studio isn’t is a front-end for tok64, cbmcnvrt, bastext or any other tokeniser / detokeniser / assembler. It’s all been written completely from scratch.

A new version of the firmware for the interface 1541 Ultimate is released. This version runs on both version of the Ultimate 1541 cartridge.

Version 2.4 includes the fixes that TLR made to the firmware, and adds the following features:

• CRT load (just by selecting the file, not on boot time)
• EasyFlash support (reading only, writing is not needed IMHO)
• Flashing and running custom FPGAs (Ultimate-II only), especially for those who want to do FPGA development without JTAG cable. FPGA bitfile will be flashed into the spare area of the Flash memory device, and the FPGA is booted from there. So there is no risk of bricking your device. (Flashing needs to be done for every boot still, optimizations will follow.)

For the rest, a lot of work has been done ‘under the hood’; especially in preparation of a native command interface to control the Ultimate from I/O space. But since this is not yet ready, it’s not included (=not enabled) in the 2.4 firmware.

• 1541 Ultimate-II V2.4 (1026)
