The C64 Banner Exchange
Tools
|
Only the Covert Bitops Loader, NinjaTracker, SadoTracker and GoatTracker Tweak Utility are actual C64 programs; rest of them require a 32-bit Unix-like system or Windows. C64 Tools collection
Contains several background graphics editors, 2 sprite editors and several
other commandline utilities.
Precompiled binaries for Win32 only but verified to compile also under
Linux. The utilities use SDL library
for lowlevel support.
Covert BitOps Loadersystem V2.12 This is a quite versatile loader/depackersystem for C64 programs. Free for use in all kinds of C64 productions. Some features include:
The loader source code is in DASM format; you have to convert the source
code yourself to the format of your assembler. Should be easy for the
most part. There are many (simple) example programs included in the
package. V2.12 fixes all combinations of Exomizer 2 support and re-adds
Exomizer 1 compatibility.
Covert BitOps Loadersystem V2.22 An autoconfiguring and simplified version of the loadersystem. Like V2.12, fixed to utilize Exomizer 2 in all combinations, as well as offering Exomizer 1 compatibility. Differences: Download Covert BitOps Loadersystem V2.05 This is an old version of the loadersystem. Supports only 1541 compatible devices for fastloading, but has an option for 2-bit transfer. DownloadDASM Win32 & Linux port
This is an unofficial port of the DASM crossassembler by Matthew Dillon
(modified by Olaf Seibert), with some fixes, including better error
handling. Note that the version on the official homepage will not compile
most CovertBitops productions, as it doesn't seem to tolerate negative constants.
GoatTracker V2.65
This is a crossplatform C64 music editor.
Supports emulated output via
Dag Lem's reSID engine, the HardSID soundcard
or CatWeasel
MK3. GoatTracker V2.63 Tweak Utility
A C64 program that loads/saves GoatTracker2 song files and allows editing
of the song data (orderlists, patterns, instruments, tables). NOTE: loads only
GT V2.59+ song format (GTS5), so re-save your old songs first!
NinjaTracker V2.0x
A C64 music editor with quite minimal featureset. Changes to previous
versions include commands (also used as instruments), 2-column tables
and a slide function that stops at target pitch. As before, allows to
save both normal executable musicdata and gamemusic data without the player.
V2.02 has the same editor features as V2.01, but has 2-frame hardrestart
and reduces playroutine zeropage use to 2 bytes. However, the new playroutine
is slightly slower and bigger.
V2.03 has "hifi" style hardrestart and more optimized playroutine. Note duration
range has also been changed to 3-65, but there are no limits on the duration of
a pattern's last note, like in previous versions.
RawGoat V2.0
This is a stripped-down version of GoatTracker V2.xx, with reduced playroutine
rastertime & memory usage. Supports only GT V1.xx effects and has several features
removed, details in the readme file. Also note that this program is essentially
unsupported (originally meant for internal use only), so use only if you really need it!
SadoTracker
A nice & simple C64 music editor written in 1999. Music for Advanced Action
Movie Simulator, Escape From New York & Metal Warrior 2 has been done
with this program.
SIDDasm V1.0
Written by Gufino, this program produces disassembler output
of .SID music files, so that you'll be able to see the musicroutine
code. Both DOS & Linux versions available, with source code included.
SIDDump V1.04
A fairly primitive program to output SID-chip & note data out of a .SID-file.
Warning: This program is unsupported! At least illegal opcode support is incomplete
- only enough to make John Player tunes work, and also the enviroment is far from
correct (basically just the CPU and 64kB of empty RAM)
SIDId V1.07
A quick & dirty HVSC playroutine identity scanner. Playroutine signatures can
be controlled via a configuration file. Additional signatures by
Yodelking, Ian Coog & ice00. NOTE: Re-check zip file periodically for added signatures!
GoatTracker V1.xx and related
GoatTracker V1.53 Stereo Download NinjaTracker V1.xx
NinjaTracker V1.1 Download BME library
Not C64-related in itself, it's a graphics/sound/input library that the
graphical utilities use, using in turn SDL
library for lowlevel support. Contains 100% C code and should be
endian-independent. The library and required include files come also with
the editors but this package contains the full source for the library
itself.
GoatStudio
Neither is this C64-related, it's a very simple console application
multitrack recording program (up to 12 tracks, 48 kHz). Works in 32-bit
Windows only.
