Looking for resources
Lads, as its been 20 years since I've last seen a working C64 let alone coding on one... I am in need of resources.
I already found a good set of pdf copies of machine language coding books here: http://www.bombjack.org/commodore/books.htm#MACHINE_LANGUAGE_an..
The programmers reference manual (and other manuals) here: http://www.bombjack.org/commodore/commodore/
And the C64 memory map here: http://www.scribd.com/doc/40443/Commodore-64-Memory-Maps-variou..
What I am still looking for is a good version of Tasm with (if possible) a manual and some source codes to get me back in touch with 8bit code.
After leaving the C64 I taught myself 68000, and later Intel 386 coding (flat memory model, based on a dos extender). I forgot most of the 6502/6510 instructions :(
None of the original dutch usa-team source codes have been kept, I lost everything including the sources of music assembler.
Any good linkage is welcome.
Cheers, Marco
P.S. Strangely I do still remember addresses like $0314/0315, $d012 and the $d400 range (Who would forget SID eh?)... The brain is an odd thing indeed.

DASM is a lot like DevPac syntax wise, so it's a quick transition to the C64 if you remember DevPac.
Local .label labels, DC.B/DS.B and stuff like that. It's really rather irellevant, but helps one to quickly get familiar with C64 code again.
Personally I moved from Amiga DevPac to Amiga DASM to PC DASM and later on to ca65 from the cc65 package.
Learning to fully exploit the possibilities of ca65/ld65 is a bit of work though, but it IS worth it imo.

Use Exomizer V2.0 Beta 7 to crunch, further do check out Kick Assembler V3.13 |

Seconded! The CC65 suite is also well-documented, well-maintained and there is an active mailing list for support.

if you prefer something simple&easy with the same syntax as the native turbo ass try this:
64TASS V1.45
(incbin, macros, are in there + more) |

I'll look at cc65, exomizer and 64tasm when I get home lads. Thanks for the linkage. |
