After a few productive days with CBM-Command we've reached another milestone. D81 support is now baked into the versions of CBM-Command that do disk images (64, 128, Plus 4). Also, the problems with reading/writing configuration files has been resolved in the Plus 4 and VIC 20 versions. You can down...

I believe the VIC chip can display up to 27 columns, 22 being the power on default to aviod any overscan issues. Someone correct me if I'm wrong :) This should get *pretty* close to the same amount of info on the screen. BTW, more rows should be supported too I believe. Well, it's great that the VI...

I've sent you some sample files for fat-40 integration. I'm starting to feel that 40 columns may not be necessary. I've spent a lot of time really cleaning up the UI and optimizing it for the VIC (and yes, I've put a bunch of #ifdef and #ifndef logic in the code) and I'm actually finding that it's ...

I'm glad you like it. There's a lot of work that went into CBM-Command.

OK, I tested it a bit so I know why you need a soft-40 program :wink: Yeah, not having 40 columns really limits things visually, though I am happy that I was able to make it workable with what the VIC-20 has. There is a web page that explain how it works ? does it works for sd2iec drives ? http://c...

I need someone who knows the VIC a lot better than I do to help with porting CBM-Command to the VIC. I have it up and running in a very flaky state, and of course it doesn't display the right panel correctly. What really needs to happen is to fork the CBM-Command code and refactor screen layout spec...

i'm afraid not the c64 uses a 6526 an updated version of the 6522 but they are not compatible where in the world are you? you will find 6522's in the 1541 mk1 and mk2 i am also pretty sure that the bbc model b has some 6522's I cracked open the VIC tonight and the 6522's are both soldered. :( I don...

6522's are quite common im sure someone on here would be willing to part with a spare chip you may also find one in a old disk drive where are you based? you could also try swapping the 6522s around as there are 2 of these in the vic20 your coursor should come back but you will loose another functi...

Is that something where just getting a different VIC will be cheaper?

Thanks for the suggestion, but as far as I can see this can only do file-copy - I just want to copy the whole disk track by track, since my discs also have 0 block "------------" files and such. Unfortunately as suspected D128IT only support 35 tracks (single-sided) discs. Is there no suc...

I've got a VIC that was working fine 2 days ago, but we left it on overnight and the next evening the screen was out of sync and acting like the monitor sync settings were off. Well, after fiddling with the monitor for about 5 minutes I decided to turn off the VIC and turn it back on. Voila, the scr...
