In the period summer 1989 to summer 1992 the BUDS (Brain Using Demo section) produced 8 demos for NATO. Starting with Wraxirmer 5, later came Twister, Catcher, Wriggler, Tripler, Matcher, Dodger and finally the BUDS demo.
BUDS started with Overall and Maduplec as members, but after the first demo "Wraxirmer 5", Overall stopped his activities. Maduplec then coded the rest of the demos with graphics from friends and exclusive sound-tracks supplied by the Vibrants. However, in the last couple of demos, all graphics and music was made by Maduplec.
NATO and BUDS stopped producing demos when Maduplec and the other remaining danish members joined Crest in 1992 when NATO was dissolved.

C2N232/

C2N232 is a Commodore C2N cassette drive (datassette) emulator with an RS-232 interface. It was designed by Marko Mäkelä (http://www.funet.fi/~msmakela/).
The device allows data transfers between all 8-bit Commodore computers that are equipped with a cassette interface (PET series, VIC-20, C64, C128, 264 series, PET-II series) and any computer that has a 38400 bps RS-232 interface. Supported protocols include pulse width modulation (normal cassette LOAD/SAVE/OPEN, and any tape speeders that use at most 3 different pulse widths), and a custom protocol whose transfer speed exceeds 38400 bps already on a 1 MHz Commodore.
The software is work in progress. The preferred methods of using the C2N232 are c2nload and cbmlink, the replacement of prlink.

Technical information about the Western Digital 1770/1772/1773 Floppy Disk Controller chips. The WD1770 and the WD1772 are used in the Commodore 1570/1571 and 1581 disk drives.

ym3526/

This is the data sheet for the Yamaha YM3526 OPL FM synthesizer chip used in the Commodore C64/C128 Sounder Expander cartridge.
Anyone wishing to program the YM3526 should refer to one of the many documents available on the internet on programming the OPL FM synthesizer used in Creative SoundBlaster cards.
According to Magnus Eriksson, the YM3526 should not be confused with OPL2 (YM3812) or OPL3 (YMF262).

Firmware for Commodore 8-bit home computers. The chronological order is: VIC-20, C64, plus/4, C128, C65.

b/

The Commodore 600 series was known as the B128 in the United States, and the machine that was known there as the B256, was called the 700 series in Europe. These machines are also known as "CBM II Low Profile" and "CBM II High Profile", respectively.
The 600 and the 700 series are almost identical, but 700 series machines have a built-in monitor, a separate keyboard, and a different character generator ROM. The 610/710 has 128kB RAM, the 620/720 has 256kB RAM, and the 630/730 has 256kB RAM and a co-processor card (Z80 and 8088 were planned, but it is not sure if these cards actually existed).
The 500 series uses a 6567/6569 VIC-II video chip instead of the 6845 CRTC. It also runs at around 1 MHz instead of the 2 MHz of other Model B computers.

Firmware for Commodore disk drives.
According to William Levak, Commodore used six different native disk formats:
2040/3040 - This is slightly different from later formats: tracks 18 - 24 have 20 sectors instead of 19.
2031/4040/1540/1541/1551/1570 - single sided, single density, 48tpi
1571 - A double sided version.
8050 - single sided, 96tpi
1001/8250 - double sided, 96tpi
1581, 3½" DD with MFM
While we're on the subject, Commodore's single density drives are actually double density, and the double density drives are actually quad density. Quad density disks have the same capacity of high density disks, but the magnetic film is compatible with double density disks.

new/

Serial bus based Commodore disk drives

1541/

This directory contains ROMs of 1540, 1541, 1541C and 1541-II drives.
The ROM checksums are valid. If you add the byte values together (adc data:adc #0), the sum of the $c000-$dfff ROM will be $c0, and the $e000-$ffff ROM will add up to $e0. This applies also to the halves of the 1541-II ROM.

1571/

Here is the firmware of the 1570, 1571 and 1571CR drives. There are some differences between these drives. The 1570 is single-sided, while the others are double-sided. See the README file for details.

9090/

The Commodore D9060 and D9090 can use the same firmware. The difference between these units is that the jumper J14 on the DOS board is open in the D9060, and closed in the D9090 to select a 4-head vs. 6-head drive. The jumper J13 seems to be unused.
According to Wolfgang Günther, the EPROM type may be 2564 or 2764, depending on the board version ("Assy No. 300012-001, Rev.B" or "Assy No. 300012-002, Rev.A"). This is the case of 300516/300517 rev.C.

GEOS is a graphical environment for the Commodore 64, 128 and the plus/4. Some versions of it are available for download at http://cmdrkey.com/cbm/geos/geos1.html.

GeoThek/

This is a collection of German GEOS files (GeoThek library). The collection is provided here "as is", mainly for two reasons. First, the disks are organized with some kind of internal logic (files that belong together are on the same diskette), and second, even though many of these files are available in the main archive (even as newer versions), some files may be adapted for German needs and might not work in English GEOS versions properly.
Merging this collection with our GEOS archive would be possible but very time-consuming, since there are no descriptions for individual files (other than the info block), and it would be difficult to decide which files belong together.

These programs run on PETs with Basic 2.0 and 4.0 with either 40 or 80 column screens, and on the Commodore 64. On every disk there is the program "cbm4032v2.1 50 hz" to run the programs on the 8032.

These programs were distributed by Commodore Business Machines Canada as public domain in the Commodore Educational Software collection dated 1983. They run on the following computers: BASIC 2.0 PET, BASIC 4.0 PET, 8032 CBM (with an 40-column emulator program) and the Commodore 64. The programs seem to be slightly updated versions compared to the collections at http://www.funet.fi/pub/cbm/pet/edu/Canada/ uploaded by Olaf Seibert.

The format of files is the usual .d64 (...zipcode does'nt exist on Plus/4, moreover, depacking is screamly slow on Commodores...) disk-image which is handled by C64S and much PC-1541 transferring stuffs. You can especially use Trans64 to put these images back to an 1541-format disk (1551 uses the same format, too). There should be ways on other systems but I still don't work on them so...

DELTA SYSTEM PLUS/4 SECTION http://www.inf.bme.hu/~charles/plus4.html
Short history
The Plus/4 section of Delta System was organized on the Autumn of 1990 with three members: UPC, Charles and Toma. There were no serious work of ours 'till the Summer of 1991, but after that more & more programs have been released (see below). Later two new members have joined our section, namely: St.GLS and RVN (later Dragon) - a gfxman. In the Winter of 1992 - after releasing our great megademo - the section has been dissolved, though St.GLS has worked a few more months on. Most of our works have been explored by the majority just posthumous.
If you're interested in any of these stuffs, just E-mail charles@inf.bme.hu.
Future prospects: Since every member has sold its machine and moved to PC, and the whole Plus/4 life is about to die, this section won't be reorganized ever.

Hi Dear +4 Scene!
Here are some photos about plus 4 freax. Most of them were shot on
GLOBAL PARDEY II. in 1994 by Lacoste of WLS and Lavina of Gotu in Debrecen, Hungary. Please upload similar photos if you have some.
Sorry for the bad resolution of the images (Handyscan sucks!)

Commodore Single Disk Drive, Technical Manual, Model 1540/1541, P/N 990445. There is no date, but it looks to be about 1984. This is an early version covering only the 1540 and 1541, with an update that covers the 1541B.

Here is the schematic diagram of the Commodore 1571 floppy disk drive. The schematic also applies to the built-in 1571 in the Commodore 128D to some extent, but not to the 1571CR, which is integrated on the motherboard of the Commodore 128DCR.

2031/

This is from a copy of the manual. The original had a number of double fold-out sheets that had no apparent need for this format, so I made them two separate pages when I coppied them. I have done the same thing here but have numbered the pages "l"(left) and "r"(right) to preserve the original pagination.

This manual contained many triple width fold out pages. Most had a wide enough margin so that they could be scanned as a double width page. Those that could not are designated with a "l" for left and "r" for right parts of the page. All but page 13 could be split so that no information was cut in two by the split.
