VirtualC64 emulates a Commodore 64 personal computer on your Macintosh. I wrote the software with two major goals in mind. First, I wanted to create an emulator that can be used as a demonstrator program in a first year or second year course on computer engineering.
To achieve this goal, I have integrated various debugging capabilities that let you peek inside the CPU, RAM, ROM, or one of the custom chips. Second, I tried to make the emulator as user friendly as it can get.
In short: VirtualC64 tries to combine the ongoing fascination of the ancient Commodore computers with the great user experience of today’s Macs.

Benjamin J. Heckendorn made a laptop of a Commodore C64. He used a modified C64c motherboard, original keyboard, 15″ TFT screen and a 1541-III DTV.
Ben also made the case for the laptop. The most work was to get the C64 motherboard and keyboard fit inside the laptop.

The Final Cartridge III was a popular extension cartridge which was created for the Commodore 64 and Commodore 128, produced by Riska B.V. Home & Personal Computers. It offered a fast loader, increasing the speeds of the disk drive, and a freezer, allowing the program execution to be stopped to be resumed later.

The Nightfall Blog from this evening is listening on port 80, the old port 53000 is deprecated. Please update your Bookmarks
This version of the game has some changes and bug fixed.
Changes:
- The time limit is MUCH shorter now
- Attacking harmless Campers results in a peppered time penalty and increasing panic.
- That time penalty for attacking the innocent is increased with each round.
- Other new/modified old panic triggers: every time somebody screams the death-scream, the panic level of the player will rise. Finding bodies will also increase the panic level, and those random splatter pics will increase it even more.
- High panic levels can lead to temporary loss of control over the player character, the higher the panic, the more often that will occur.
- Extreme panic level result in an instant heart-failure.
- Healthy prayers mode: when keeping still while carrying the cross, the panic level will slowly drop.
- Every 6th round is a bonus round: all you can kill in 3 minutes :)

Hello, as you may notice, we’re back online! A bit late, but… better late than never…
The reason for the delay was a UPS Battery Problems, which needed some time to locate and fix it.
