This is a custom firmware build for the 1541 Ultimate II by Daniel Kahlin (tlr).

This version of the firmware addresses a few things that needed improvements.

Full History:

• Rebased to the 2.3 release. (svn r88)
• Rebased to the 2.2 release. (svn r71)
• Added GPL 3.0 license as stated by Gideon in the 1541 Ultimate-II (Fixes Bug 110 “License file (GPL) missing in source repository.”)
• Fixed filename length in print out during DMA loading.
• Added “Real Run” for files inside .d64 files which mounts, loads and runs using the BASIC prompt.
• Added “Run Tape” for .tap files which mounts tap and does LOAD/RUN using the BASIC prompt.
• Added “Run Disk” for .d64 and .g64 files which mounts, loads and runs “*” using the BASIC prompt.
• Added detection of cyclic links in .d64 directories and files. (Fixes Bug 94 “Hang when entering diskimage.”)
• Added sanity check of sector links in .d64 directories and files.
• Search until end of directory, even when hitting files with t=0. (Fixes Bug 98 “No dir listing with DEL file linked to T0, S0.”)
• Based on the 2.1 release. (svn r65)
• RUN/LOAD/mount has been reworked to hopefully be more clean. (Fixes Bug 109 “CLR/HOME ctrl code sometimes visible on running file from browser.”)
• Made DMA loading simulate the look of normal loading.
• Corrected mixup of disk id. (Fixes Bug 79 “id1 & id2 mixed in disk_image.cc (Skate or Die disk/sector id bug)”)
• Cherry-picked fix for SDCard rename from trunk. (svn r66) (Fixes Bug 105 “Renaming SDCard via U-Menu corrupts root directory.”)
• Submenues can now be exited using CRSR-left in addition to R/S. (Implements Wish 77 “Exit submenu using CRSR-left in file browser.”)

EasyProg is a program for the C64/C128. It is used to write (“burn”) cartridge image files (*.crt) onto an EasyFlash.

Version 1.5.2 – 20.07.2011:

• Fix an issue with Am29F040 sector erase which e.g. caused some games not to be able to save their game states.
• Allow operations when no known flash chips where found, this makes it possible to use this version of EasyProg for the AlienFlash too.

Turbo Chameleon 64 is an extremely user-friendly cartridge that can be used without opening the computer. It is just plugged to the expansion port of the C64.

The Turbo Chameleon 64 cartridge can also be operated as a stand-alone unit (since it’s basically an FPGA computer like the C-One or the Minimig in a C64 cartridge case), replacing the computer, the floppy drive and the heavy power supply.

When used as a stand-alone unit, a USB power adapter or active USB hub can be used as a power source.

Changelog:

Differences from Beta-6c to Beta-6d:

• Cartridge emulations.
• Turbo speed increase: Eliminated one clock cycle from critical path.
• Turbo speed increase: Writes to memory concurrent with next instruction fetch.
• Turbo speed increase: MMU caches last used CPU slot.

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:

14.07.2011 – 1.4:

• Added warnings for unused labels.
• Speed up compiler (less restart of parsing)
• Following element dependencies on build.
• Disallow circular dependencies.
• Readjusted watches after restart.
• Save current open document and position.

There’s still a little bug in the sprite editor I haven’t been able to reproduce involving flipping (press X/Y) and/or copy/paste.
