DirMaster è un programma per la gestione dei files del Commodore 64, del tipo (D64,. D81. T64, ecc) e anche formati compressi ad esempio. Arc. Sda. lnx, ecc. Il programma DirMaster gira sotto M$ Windows.

Novita’ in questa versione:

• .t64 *write* support.
• .t64 “Run In” support.
• disk/archive content preview on file open dialog.
• remembers window location/size between launches.
• cross linked sector check.
• “Run In” can now operate from a transient disk or tape image; this creates a temporary image which is passed to the chosen emulator; temp images are deleted when DirMaster exits.
• configurable character replacements for exported file names.
• and various other user interface tweaks and bug fixes.

SHO-FLI (Sprite Hires Overlay FLI / Sprite Overlay Hires FLI) è una modalita’ grafica del c64 con delle caratteristiche piuttosto interessanti.

Funziona esattamente come la modalità SHFLI ma l’immagine è più ampia a causa della sovrapposizione con 1 sprite (piuttosto che due in SHFLI), questa modalita’ grafica è conosciuta anche come SHF-XL originariamente inventata da Crossbow / Crest.

The xum1541 (pronounced “zoom”) is built from a modified version of the xu1541 firmware. It is a USB full speed device and supports high-speed parallel cables. The hardware USB support significantly speeds up transfers. It will support mnib (aka nibtools), which provides low-level imaging to backup copy protected disks.

I’m most excited about this feature since it is critical to archiving original floppies for the C64 Preservation Project.

Mega-Cart’s Gallery

The Mega-Cart’s incredible selection of auto-starting games and handy utilities, coupled with its software-configurable RAM expansion capability, will provide you with hours of fun and discovery.

Yet, despite the immense power and complexity “under the hood” of the Mega-Cart it remains easy to use because of the intuitive all menu-driven selection system.

SJLOAD is a C64/C64DTV software fastloader. Its main difference from normal fastloaders is that it only works with Jiffy-enabled drives and uses the Jiffy protocol. This makes it handy for people who have a Jiffy-enabled drive (also new hardware such as SD2IEC) but do not want to make the hardware changes necessary for exchanging the C64 kernal.

SJLOAD speed is a bit higher than normal Jiffy since SJLOAD uses the same protocol but a different implementation (it disables the VICII during load etc.). With an SD2IEC, SJLOAD is about 15% faster than a normal Jiffy kernal.

SJLOAD is loosely based on VDOS (1986) by Edward Carroll. However, the fast loading routines have been replaced completely by 1570.
