Dir Master v1.0 RTN Category: DirMaster09-13-24

Dir Master v1.0 RTN - This is an updated version of the original v1 of Dir Master by Wim Taymans which was released by the magazine 64'er.  This version has been updated in August 2024 by Wilfred, one of our generous visitors who spent a lot of time hunting down a bug in machine code (he didn't have the source code) that causes the color cycled text highlighting routine to not show in the menus.  Unfortunately, it turns out that this bug is only apparent in the CCS64 Emulator.  That doesn't mean there isn't some legitametly bad code in the original, it just doesn't seem to affect anything but CCS64 (original works ok in Vice and Z64k).

Thank you Wilfred for taking the time to solve this puzzle and make available a fully working version for all Commodore 64 emulators.

Star Gemini 10x/15x User Manual Category: Hardware Manuals [C64]09-02-24

Congratulations on having purchased a serial, impact dot matrix printer that offers you more quality, greater flexibility and convenience, and superior reliability than you could find in any other printer in the same price range.

As you already know (or are about to learn), the Gemini-10X and Gemini-15X let you print both regular and italicized alphabets, as well as normal, elite (smaller), condensed, enlarged, emphasized, and double-strike
characters. You can print on regular stationery, multiple-sheet forms, fanfold computer paper, or paper fed from a roll (European style).

The graphics capability provided by the Gemini printers is limited only by your graphic talents, and includes three bit-image modes: Low Resolution (60 by 72 dots per square inch), High Resolution (120 by 144) and Ultra High Resolution (240 by 144). With all this printing power at your fingertips, what are you waiting for? Let's get started!

Thanks to C. Hicks for providing this extended version of the Star Gemini Manual which is much more complete than other versions found around the net (277 pages vs. 127 pages).

Spelling Critter Category: Grammar (Educational)09-02-24

Spelling Critter by Baracuda is a neat educational tool for teaching kids how to spell on the Commodore 64. What makes this program so neat, is that it uses S.A.M. the software automated mouth to communicate with the user.  The way the game works is; someone (presumably a parent) puts in a list of words spelled correctly, then the child is asked to spell those words as they are presented.  It's a bit like flashcards in that each word is briefly shown to the child before being asked to input the correct spelling.

Thanks for sharing this Baracuda.

CADPAK-128 Category: Hi-Res Graphic Editors [C128]08-19-24

CADPAK-128 by Roy C. Wainright (Abacus) - One of our visitors has generously taken the time to create and share a perfect archive of not just one version of CADPAK-128, but two!  In this archive is the 1986/87 version of CADPAK-128 that used just the keyboard for drawing, AND the later 1987 version that added support for the 1351 mouse.  Both images are .g64, with the extra .nibdat for verifying the rip was clean.

The following is a quote from the CADPAK-128 manual describing the program: 

CADPAK-128 is a program for the Commodore 128 which helps you draw pictures and graphics designs easily and accurately. The drawings have a resolution of 640 points wide by 360 points high. When completed, the pictures are printed using a dot matrix printer in various sizes, depending on the printer. The drawings may be saved on disk, both as a protection against loss due to power failure and also for later recall and display.

Unlike other drawing systems, CADPAK allows you to get an exactly scaled printer output on your dot matrix printer. It also allows you to operate in the units of your drawing problem (feet, miles, etc.) and all
dimensions you see during the drawing process are those external dimensions. The scale factor is set up when the screen is initialized. The printer distortion is compensated for so that circles are printed as true circles.

Thank you Myke C. for archiving and sharing this Commodore history!

Note - Although both versions run in VICE 128, it didn't act as well as the Z64K Commodore 128 emulator, you mileage may vary.

TURBO PROCESSOR 4 Mhz 16 Bit Expansion card for the Commodore C64

We congratulate you on your purchase of one of the best hardware add-ons available for Commodore C64 . With Turbo 64 your Computer becomes one of the most efficient home computers in the world.

To develop the TURBO PROCESSOR it needed a lot of research and time as we wanted to develop a card which is simply plugged into the expansion port and runs. We also discovered that one C64 is not the same as another C64. There are many different versions with different timings, i.e. a C64 made in England is different from the one made in USA Therefore you will find on the PCB of TURBO PROCESSOR three trim pots for adjusting the timing to suit your own C64.
