C64 Raster Effect Editor version 1.4.3 and C64 Pic Extender version 1.1.5 released

Posted on by

Version 1.4.3 of the C64 Raster Effect Editor is now available within my Software page. Likewise, version 1.1.5 of the C64 Pic Extender is also available within my Software page. With both, binaries are provided for Windows (i686 and x86_64), macOS (x86_64), and Linux (x86_64 and armv7l).

These are minor updates for a few enhancements. Common to both, aligning with the same changes I had done for ALBERT, are the below:

  • Improved the re-arrangement of data for MC pictures
  • Updated Exomizer to version 3.1.2

Changes to the C64 Raster Effect Editor also include:

  • Rationalised the stable code
  • Multiple about dialogs under macOS won’t be erroneously created any longer
  • Non-ASCII and space characters in the application path won’t impair the execution of exomizer under *nix

Stay tuned for more!

Version 1.1.2 of the C64 Pic Extender is now available within my Software page.

This is a minor update for a few enhancements. Here’s what’s been changed:

  • Added support for “Attribute Byte Format” in order to preserve individual colors when importing sprites from Sprite Pad (use the Preferences menu to activate)
  • Accept Koala Painter images even if they load at non-conventional addresses ($2000 or $4000)

Version 1.4.2 of C64 Raster Effect Editor is now available within my Software page.

This one too is a minor update. Here’s what’s been changed:

  • Accept Koala Painter images even if they load at non-conventional addresses ($2000 or $4000)

The DC2N4-LC command-line client has been replaced by the DC2N4-LC command-line utilities. The latter re-implements the former’s functionality using my most recent development framework.

Finally, the Commodore 64 Cartridge Dumper command-line client is now referred to as Commodore 64 Cartridge Dumper utilities.

  • adds an extra palette (CCS64) for data interchange with legacy tools,
  • updates Exomizer to version 3.1.1,
  • adds the option to export a project to a PNG image (useful for uploading a screenshot to CSDb),
