CBM-Command v1.0.2 Beta

CBM-Command è un disk manager multipiattaforma per Commodore 64 / Commodore 128 / Commodore VIC20 / Commodore C16. L’interfaccia assomiglia al Norton Commander / Midnight Commander ma molto più semplice. La versione per Commodore 128 puo’ girare anche a 80 colonne.

Release Notes – 2010-07-09 – Version 1.0.1/1.0.2

New Features:

  • Added support for Commodore Plus 4 computer.
  • 32K Expanded VIC-20 now supported.

Changes:

  • (VIC20) Refactored many of the screens to better fit the 22×23 layout.
  • (VIC20) Filename shortening removed and the file type moved to the left of the directory display.
  • (PLUS4) Created color scheme to match the environment.
  • (VIC20) Panels are not displayed side by side, only one panel is displayed at a time.
  • (VIC20) D64 support is removed, the RAM was needed elsewhere.
  • (ALL) The screen has been made more scalable.

Known Issues:

  • (VIC20) Many of the keyboard shortcuts on the left side of the keyboard do not work under VICE. After speaking with members of the VICE team they are pretty sure this is a problem in the GETIN kernel routine which is used by cc65. I would greatly appreciate it if someone with a real VIC can verify that the keys do not work on real hardware before I bring the problem up in the cc65 forums.
  • (VIC20) I still haven’t figured out why saving the configuration doesn’t work. :(
  • (VIC20) CTRL-D and CTRL-E don’t work.
  • (VIC20) The launcher doesn’t yet know about the VIC, so it loads the wrong version of CBM-Command.
  • (VIC20) The configuration tool cannot save.

Unboxing C64SD V2 by Manosoft

C64SD V2 by Manosoft

Autopsy:

Salve a tutti, faccio una breve recensione di questa nuova e interessante interfaccia per Commodore 64/VIC20 di Manosoft (Damiano).

Questa interfaccia utilizza il firmware SD2IEC di Shadowolf ma l’idea geniale di Damiano e’ stata quella di auto-alimentare l’interfaccia tramite la presa del registratore a cassette e di inserire un DIN maschio da stampato che si inserisce perfettamente nella porta Floppy del nostro Commodore, guardate le foto che parlano da sole ;-D

Le mie prime impressioni?

Il circuito stampato e’ di ottima costruzione, elegante e funzionale, la barra di metallo fissata sul retro serve da maniglia per l’inserimento dell’interfaccia senza schiacciare la componentistica, facilmente raggiungibile anche lo switch per scegliere il device del Floppy Drive e il ponticello per scegliere se alimentare l’interfaccia tramite connettore del registratore a cassette oppure esternamente.

Molto carini anche i due pulsantini di Reset e Cambio Disco che fanno capolino dal retro del Commodore.

Insomma, un’ottimo prodotto ad un prezzo veramente competitivo.

SD-CARD Tested:

SANDISK SD-CARD 2GB = 100% WORKING.

CORSAIR SD-CARD 512MB = 100% WORKING.

The software for the 1541 Ultimate II is finished.

1541 Ultimatetesto tratto dalla Homepage 1541 Ultimate:

il software per l’interfaccia Ultimate 1541 II è stato completato. Nelle ultime due settimane ho fatto molti progressi implementando tutte queste features:

  • USB is now working stable, including insertion and removal.  (My external 500 GB harddisk was detected flawlessly!)
  • Support for USB devices with multiple LUNs (like card readers)
  • GCR (G64) supported added, including write (the Ultimate-I couldn’t do this)
  • T64 file support re-integrated.
  • Tape support, using TAP files (I needed to test the hardware anyway!)
  • Comprehensible menus.
  • Real time clock functional  (still need a clock widget…)
  • I made a wooden mould, to simplify closing the plastic cases without damaging them.

Penso di riuscire spedire le prime 40~50 interfacce il prossimo Mercoledì! Le rimanenti interfacce saranno spedite al più presto! Grazie per la vostra pazienza!

  • AntiISDA Warrior. The game concept for AntiISDA Warrior was first developed on the Oric Atmos. The similarity to the game Space Invaders is not only coincidental, but here only the shots are movable, and not the enemies or the initial place for fire.
  • Berzerk MMX. A clone of the classic Stern arcade hit, Berzerk. Written in ca65 assembler.
  • CBM FileBrowser. A file browser for sd2iec firmware based drives (uIEC/SD2IEC/MMC2IEC) and standard CBM drives too.
