| | TSDump V1.0 | | Posted by Csabo on 2006-06-26 |
| Gaia released a small tool called TSDump. This utility is for trackmos: for any given D64 file, it reads the BAM and dumps out the track and sector information and name of PRG files. The output then can be included into an assembler. He also hinted about more upcoming pieces of code, keep an eye open for that in the near future. |

| | Unlimited Releases a New Pictureshow! | | Posted by Csabo on 2006-06-17 |
 Erich the foreman of the German group Unlimited released a new pictureshow called Botticelli Picturedisk 28. Erich writes: Between the Club Infos I sometimes make some pictures, hires or multicolor. To fill the disk I convert pictures from Koala (C64) and other picture formats (like Amicapaint from the C64) etc. Most of them get some work done to make them look better (colors and such). [...] You can also use our new "General View" utility to view them! So check out the new pics, and if you haven't seen the group's recently released General View imageviewer, download it now, you'll like it! Cheers to Erich for helping the scene stay alive! |

 Murphy found some long-lost golden-oldies. Game Pic's 2 and Info to RTL are two rare demos from GS, Tiger's Utility 92 is a utility collection. Most importantly, he also found Cinemaster V1.0, a masterpiece of coding from TCFS. The article covering this program (also written by the author) was the very last Plus/4 thing ever published in the Hungarian magazine Commodore Világ. Thanks to Murphy, check it out! |

 Litwr has released a new software converted from C64: Test Suite. It's a programmer's tool that checks the compatibility of Commodore Plus/4 Emulators. It's been reportedly helpful in the development (and bugfixing) of YAPE. Litwr also sent us a couple of more downloads which have been linked from his site, but apparently not available for anyone outside the .ru domain. These are Tapecopy and Epson driver. Check them out if you are interested. |

| | Club Info 93 out now!! | | Posted by Luca on 2006-06-03 |
  The pathological missing of new software we're stand in this period, has to surrender because a brand new issue of the long running german diskmagazine has been released. Thanks Erich for Club Info 93!
The main present of this issue is General View V1.1, a cute refined graphic utility, capable to read almost all the Plus/4 bitmap formats. That's a great effort by Data-land!
When the scene becomes feeble, Unlimited battens down the hatches! |
