CVMTuning-0.2.tar.gz by Philipp Klaus an utility which creates tuning tables for use with the Colecovision utility library. This can be useful if you want to use a pitch other than the standard A=440 Hz, so you can easily use e.g. the pitch of A at 480 Hz used for organs in Bach's times or the pitch of A at 380 Hz as used in early 18th century England. So far cvmtuning supports equal tuning only.

LibCV-0.18.tar.gz by Philipp Klaus Krause (Colecovision utility library) This is the colecovision library. A low level library to provide access to the ColecoVision's hardware. The ColecoVision library exposes the ColecoVision hardware's functionality to the C programmer. All basic functionality is supported. Support for the scrolling wheel on the super action controllers is still missing. The ColecoVision utility library builds on top of the ColecoVision library. It provides a higher level of abstraction. Both are covered by the LGPL. Small demo programs are included and functions are documented in comments in the header files. The latest version is libcv 0.18 / libcvu 0.11 from 2009-9-25. sdcc 2.9.0 or newer is recommended. The libraries are intended for use with the sdcc compiler and my tools png2cv, png2cvs, abc2cvm and cvmtuning.

Micro Compiler v0.77 for TDOS by Dale Wick a compiler for a basic-like language, which will turn into the Express Basic compiler for the Coleco Adam. This version is designed for TDOS (or CP/M) use and is a command line program. it is tuned to make TDOS programs easily. It could be used for making EOS programs or boot block programs.

PNG2CV-0.13.tar.gz by Philipp Klaus Krause a tool that creates ColecoVision characters for bitmap mode from .png images.

PNG2CVS-0.5.tar.gz by Philipp Krause a tool to create ColecoVision sprites from .png images with an alpha channel. It supports multi-color sprites (creating one ColecoVision sprite per color) and coordinate offsets so that big objects that require multiple sprites can be kept in a single file. Both 8x8 and 16x16 sprites are supported.

CVPaint2 (2009) (Unknown).zip by Daniel Bienvenu This tool (in development) can draw in a display mode supported by the TMS9918 video chip and TMS9928, which is part Colecovision, TI99/4a, MSX-1, Memotech 512, etc.. I started programming this tool in the ultimate tool that replaces my current CVPAINT appointed to correspond somewhat better to the needs and the new version of the software development kit based on the SDCC compiler instead of Hi-Tech C . After some tests, you'll understand how it works. I can tell you that sometimes hold the SHIFT key is something different when you draw. Click with left button in the color palette changes the color of the ink (forecolor) and click with right button in the palette changes the color of the paper (backcolor).

CVSoundGen20100315.zip by Daniel Bienvenu (ColecoVision Player Demo) a giant text box where you can try whatever Coleco format sounds you want... you can even compose music with it if you know what you're doing.

Bee v2.4.1-win (2009) (Unknown).zip by Bee Only the NTSC version is emulated. However, as games were designed to work both on NTSC and PAL machines, there should be no major compatibility problems. Emulation quality is quite high, all games seem to work well. You need a System ROM for the ColecoVision to work.

blueMSX_2.8.3_beta.zip by Team The blueMSX MSX emulator is approaching its third anniversary and in this short time it has established itself as the most advanced and feature rich MSX emulator. It supports most common machines and a wide variety of extension hardware. A feature rich debugger is also included in the emulator. During the last two years, the MSX emulation has been extended and support for other systems have been added. blueMSX is now also an SVI emulator, and supports the ColecoVision and Sega SG-1000, SC-3000, SF-7000 consoles.

Cogwheel Setup v1.0.3.0.3 (2009) (Unknown).exe.zip by Benry A software emulator primarily for 8-bit Sega hardware, such as the Sega Master System, Sega Game Gear and SG-1000. The ColecoVision is also supported. The project uses a modular design based around a Z80 core emulator class library. The rest of the Sega-specific emulation is implemented in another class library, and the user interface is implemented as a separate application. This would allow the main emulator to be easily adapted to different interfaces.

ColEm v2.6-Windows (2010) (Marat Fayzullin).zip by Marat Fayzullin supports both standard and SuperAction controllers, including the spinners (controlled with mouse movement). I have also started adding Coleco Adam emulation but it is not finished yet.
