Shifter 3 is a multi-directional, single plane, shifter screen written in or around 1992 by Neil Halliday / GBP Software. It was to form part of our Hellbender Demos which was never finished.
Included in the zip is the full source code for the demo screen.
The Siner Screen is a demo that was written for the Hellbender Demo, which was a mega demo that Bruno Azzara and myself were writing. Alas, we never finished it before work and life got in the way!
This demo features a 320×200 single plane 1 pixel horizontal sine scroller (in real-time), with 3 single plane bobs and single plane vu meters.
In the zip you will find the full source code for the demo screen.
The Confusion Demo screen written by Bruno Azzara of GBP Software. This screen was written for the Hysteria Demo and features a 32×32 single plane horizontal scroller, a single plane vertical scrolling background, multiple parallax, a vertical scroller and vu-meters.
Included in the zip file is the full source code for the screen.
Bob’s Your Uncle is an early demo screen by Bruno & Neil from GBP Software. It features two vertical scrollers, a travelling background, mouse controlled unlimited bobs and digi drum music.
Contained within the zip file is the .BAS source file. Looking at the source code, it doesn’t need any extensions to run.
This is the source code to an unfinished extension that introduced lots of commands into STOS Basic to deal with the Atari STE. It contains commands to interact with the Jaguar controllers, along with automated hardware scrolling commands, and reading joysticks that are connected to the Centronics ports.
Full interpreter, source code and instruction manual included in the zip file.
This is the full source code to Disk Boot v1.00 that I created for my A-Level project from 1992/1993.
Disk Boot is a floppy disk boot sector management application that allows the copying, storing and restoring of boot sectors on a floppy disk. The main idea for the program was to enable the recreation of boot sectors where they had been overwritten accidentally, or by a boot sector virus.
Along with the program is the extension that I created to allow STOS Basic to do some low level disk functions, and a series of pre-saved boot sectors.
I have also included all my thesis notes about the project in the PDF file.
** NOTE: I cannot guarantee the operation of this program, and therefore cannot be held responsible for any damage or loss of data as a result of using it!
The GBP Extension from GBP Software. This useful extension adds various cool commands to STOS Basic such as switching on/off the drive lights, STE sample playback, various packer support, GBP bank builder and screen mirroring.
The zip file contains full documentation and example source code. I’ve also included the full assembly source code for both the interpreter and compiler versions of the extension.
