C64 Studio is a .NET based IDE written by Georg Rottensteiner. This app supports project based C64 assembly.

The internal assembler is using the ACME syntax. In connection with Vice the IDE allows you to debug through your code and watch variables/memory locations, registers and memory.

Any other emulator can be set up as well if it’s startable via runtime arguments. C64 Studio allows you to compile to raw binary, .prg, .t64 or cartridge format (.bin and .crt for 8k and 16k). Additionally to this C64 Studio comes with a charset and sprite editor.

Version history:

11.02.2012 – 2.0:

• Added !endoffile macro.
• Allow umlauts in labels.
• Fixed tooltip flicker.
• Fixed bug in charset paste.
• Fixed ASM parser to decide to use 8bit/16bit arguments based on source.
• Enhanced watcher (allow to view memory blocks)
• Enhanced debugger (auto-refresh memory view and registers)
• Enhanced Media Manager.

CBM-Command is a disk manager for the Commodore 64 / Commodore 128 / Commodore VIC20 and Commodore C16 computers. It is written like Norton Commander or Midnight Commander, but is much simpler due to the target platforms. Both the C128/C64/VIC20/C16 have their own native version of the application.

Release Notes – Version 2.1 – 2012-02-02 – Final Release

This version is intended to replace all prior versions you may have downloaded. Please see release notes for prior versions to get comprehensive list of changes.

New Features:

• It can detect the formats of Creative Micro Design’s partitions and sd2iec’s disk images.
• It knows automatically when to create either single-sided (D64) or double-sided (D71) images.
• CBM 8050 and CBM 8250 (SFD-1001) disk copier.

Changes from 2.1rc2:

• After showing a message, the status line always will let you know when you have tapped the RETURN-key.

Changes from 2.1rc1:

• It won’t create a sub-directory with a null name.

Changes from 2.0:

• A better help file.
• Fixed batch delete: it can remove many more files in one pass.
• After a rename, it shows both the new and old names (you can verify that you changed what you wanted to change).
• It is better at catching and reporting disk/file errors.
• It is less likely to be jammed by missing drives.
• It has improved support for RELative files.
• It copies all of the data in IDE64 files.
• The panels show the disks’ format codes.
• The image creater says which image format it plans to make. Now, it tells you before it asks for a file-name (to remind you about which suffix to use in the name).
• Cleaner VIC-20 screens.

Known Issues:

• It can trigger the write-and-replace bug.
• It can’t create or write back D80 and D82 images.
• It can’t create or read images with error-blocks or extended tracks.
• The REL-file copier doesn’t truncate old target files that have the same record size as the new file.
• It will try to copy DEL files if they are selected.
• Errors don’t stop batch operations; the file is skipped.

• CBM-Command v2.1 Final Release (D64) (1584)
• CBM-Command v2.1 Final Release (D80) (1475)
