individual Computers: New software

Catweasel MK4 with Linux drivers

Michael Krause has adapted his cwfloppy driver for Linux to the Catweasel MK4. The new driver is only available for Kernel version 2.6, and can currently only read disks. Get more information on the author's homepage.

MMC64 plugins available

The flashcard-based mass storage device for the C64 computer supports a plugin system that handles unknown filetypes with external programs. The first plugins support the seven picture formats Koala, Doodle, Advanced Art Studio, Interpaint, Hi-Eddi, Art Studio and Paint Magic.

Download: MMC64_PicturePlugins.zip (5 KByte)

Further, there's a player for a streaming.video format that's already supported by another mass storage unit for the C64:

PAL version:: MMC64_aniplgin10_PAL.zip (2 KByte)
NTSC version: MMC64_aniplgin10_NTSC.zip (2 KByte)

The BIOS of MMC64 has been improved a lot after the first bug reports. The new version 0.96 can be flashed by the user by simply placing the file in the SYSTEM64 directory of a flashcard. Should anything go wrong while flashing the unit with the browser, the same tool is available on a recovery disk.

BIOS: MMC64_V096.zip (7 KByte)
Recovery disk: MMC64_Recovery_096.zip (8 KByte)

Detailed documentation of MMC64 is now available in the support area of the website of individual Computers. Programmers can find information about the MMC64 registers, and a few code examples of how to read and write data from and to the flashcard in their own programs. A commented source code for a plugin will follow in a few days. (cg) (Translation: cg)
