WELCOME TO COCO 2!

CoCo2 is a tool for developing video games for the VIC-20. Think of it as a sort of SEUCK for the VIC. Why is this program called COCO 2? Because there is a COCO. The first COCO teaches computer techniques, computer programming, a basic language and problem solving. COCO 2 allows you to create your own computer games. But COCO 2 really does much more.

By the time you have played and programmed with COCO 2 you will have learned:

• Computer Graphics
• Computer Animation
• Real-Time Programming
• Computer-Human Interaction
• Logic

And you thought you were just having fun!

This manual was written to be unique and useful as the CODEWRITER SYSTEM itself.  This Is a tall order. Please believe us when we say that everyone at Dynateoh Microsoftware worldwide has worked to make CODEWRITER among the most valuable programs you can own.

This BBS program is written mostly in BASIC with just enough machine code to allow a 300/1200/2400 baud modem to transmit and receive at full speed. The main purpose for writing a BBS in BASIC is for ease of modification by the you the SYSOP. If you can do a little BASIC programming, then you should be able to make almost any changes to the BBS you may want. But if you ever do need or want any help in a making a modification, feel free to ask me about it.

I found what appears to be an earlier version of the Color 64 BBS v7.3 manual (based on the serial number) that has 13 additional pages versus the previously posted version.  I didn't scan the pages enough to discern the main differences so I'm going to leave them both posted.

The C O L O R 80 program turns on the hires bit map mode described in the Programmer's Reference Manual (start page 122).  The screen starts at $E000 (57344 decimal) and the color starts at $D800 (55296 decimal). To poke into color memory, first switch out I/O.

Welcome to the world of Waveform, where tones have colors and anyone can play beautiful music; where learning about music is effortless, because you learn while playing music.  Your doorway to this amazing world is the Colortone Keyboard 'No Fault Music' System for the Commodore 64.

Welcome to the world of COMAL programming!  Many feel that COMAL is close to being an ideal programming language for microcomputers, incorporating as it does the best features of both BASIC, Logo and Pascal.

Thank you for purchasing the Comet64 Internet Modem from CommodoreServer.com.  With it, you will be able to access the Internet like never before!  We know you're anxious to get started, so we've developed this guide to be as quick and easy as possible.  If you purchased your Comet64 as a kit, you'll find a link to assembly instructions at the bottom of CommodoreServer.com.

Your purchase of the Commodore Z80 add-on microprocessor cartridge puts you in the elite group of owners of a dual processor home microcomputer.  No one but Commodore the originator of the home microcomputer - could design and manufacture an inexpensive home or personal computer that accommodates the two most common microprocessors in the microcomputer industry:

• the Commodore MOS 6510 (6502 type) microprocessor

• the Z80A microprocessor

Doubler is the answer to hundreds of phone calls to our shops asking for a tape copier capable of copying "turbo" loading programs. Due to the ever increasing variety of loadere in use normal tape copying techniques are not practical as a different copier would have to be written for each type.

Doubler was designed over the phone by Richard Austin and Angus Ager. Angus wrote the software, which has been visually improved by "Ruby" Murray, and Bob Hitchcock planned the hardware. Testing has proved that Doubler can achieve 100S success in backing up any Commodore data.

Now with C64 FORTH+ you can program your Commodore 64 with a language even more flexible than BASIC, yet almost as powerful as machine code.

C64 FORTH+ is a high level language that will enable you to run programs up to fifty times faster than those written in BASIC, without the tedious programming requirements of machine language.  You can even re-define the language to suit your own programming requirements! C64 FORTH+ is the tool for programmers who want to squeeze as much power and speed from the Commodore 64 as possible.

The Commodore 64 MACRO ASSEMBLER DEVELOPMENT SYSTEM software package allows you to program in the native 6500 series Assembly language code, directly on the Commodore 64 computer.  It provides you with a very powerful macro Assembler, editor, loaders and two machine language monitors along with other support routines. These development tools operate like and provide the same level of direct machine interface as the Assemblers on much larger computers.

Thank you BlueCursor for the manual and software

Mastercode is a substantial and complex program, providing a host of features of use to anyone interested in machine code programming on the Commodore 64, Despite its complexity Mastercode is designed with the user in mind and is far easier to use than many inferior assembler/disassemblers. All of Mastercode's many facilities are called up by means of clear menus and prompts which appear as the program runs. There are no obscure commands to enter to make full use of Mastercode and with an hour or so's practice you will be making the most of its power.

Our friend Tomse over at retro-commodore.eu was kind enough to reach out and share this Commodore 64 treasure with us.  Not only do we have the beautiful scan to share, he also made images of the two original disks that come with the package.  These are pretty rare as only a cracked version with some missing files has been spotted over at csdb.dk.  The two .d64 disk images are imbedded in the PDF file, but I'll also post them as a seperate download. 

Thanks Tomse!

Commodore BASIC v3.5 Manual 

According to Wikipedia, BASIC 3.5 was the first version to add a number of commands for graphics and sound support.  Here's a link to an extension from the June 1990 Issue of 64'er for the Commodore 64 to allow running those programs.

A while back I either got an email or read somewhere on the internet that early 1541 disk drives came with a disk of programmer's utilities.  Here is the manual for those utilities.

Welcome to this revised expanded manual for the excellent music tracker SID-Wizard2 for Commodore 64. I will try to go into detail of most aspects of the tracker and I will also try to explain the functions of the wonderful SID chip as we go along. The reason why I expanded the work of Mihaly's manual is that there is some stuff left out that SID gurus know but beginners don't.

This guide covers SID Wizard versions up to 1.6 and is still helpful with 1.7 & 1.8, but version 1.8 has many changes compared to 1.6.

This utility disk contains many useful programs which increase the capacity and flexibility of dfile128 by allowing you to manlpulate and modify your record flIes.  These programs were created because they were requested, even demanded, by loyal users of dflle 128.  Of course, lf you do not have the dfile128 Database Management System, these special utilities will not do you much good since they only perform operations on dfile128 record files.

dfile128 is a fully featured easy-to-use database management system. This program was developed by listening to the inputs of several thousand users, like yourself, and implementing those features which most of you found desirable to have.
