NAV, è un nuovo file browser per il Commodore 64 con NAV è possibile utilizzare il mouse in porta 1 e il joystick in porta 2 o la tastiera per navigare.

NAV può funzionare con un massimo di cinque unità floppy esterne ed è stato testato con le seguenti interfaccie:

1541, 1571, 1581, uIEC, IDE64

Changelog:

• More drive icons. The font has been improved, directory listings look better.

• Lots of bug fixes.
• LOAD and RUN the CHANGES program to read the complete changelog. As before, type “@help” in NAV to get a full list of features.
• You can now choose from 12 different backgrounds. I copied most of these tiles from ones used in GEOS (thanks ShadowM).
• Unfortunately, NAV still does not work with the Final Cartridge III. Sorry. It seems as though there is a way to temporarily disable the FCIII to allow it to work with NAV… but I can’t figure it out… yet. Feel free to drop me a line if you think you can help.

HermIRES e’ un hires bitmap (Art Studio 1 format) editor che gira sotto Windows e Linux per il Commodore 64.

The format has some restrictions, here are the rules:

• The maximal resolution of the picture is 320×200
• Only 16 fix C64 colours can be used (no gradient either)
• In a 8×8 pixel-block only 2 colours can used to be displayable by C64 (this is detected in HermIRES, but .hbm files can be saved with clashes too.)
• On a real C64 the PAL will blur the screen-content a bit, should check on CRT, or at least VICE emulator’s CRT simulation.

Changelog:

Fixed:

• Pen-shapes are symmetric again. -> solution: 2.23*radius as diameter and 80 as angle-steps.
• Pen-preview is more accurate now -> solution: typing some ‘-1′ in PenPreview function.
• 0 sized filled rectangle with dither freezed the app -> solution: when start and end X or Y is equal, only drawing line…
• Taking tasbar size (30 pixel high) into the resolution-decider equation – more probable for GUI to fit into the screen comfortably.
• Windows – now the program Icon appears again in taskbar and window-title -> with the new compile.bat (not from DevCpp with Makefile.win)

• HermIRES v1.26 (Linux) (948)
• HermIRES v1.26 (Windows) (1342)
