U.L.S. (Universal Loading System)
U.L.S. (Universal Loading System) is a means by which Atari ST applications can request disk access, or system function calls when TOS is not available, as is the case with most games and demos, and therefore run from any media (Including Hard Disks). Late in 2005 D-Bug released the first few ULS patched games, and then the system went into a bit of a slumber as we continued with Falcon patching. In August 2008, the ULS code was completely re-written from the ground up, adding new functionality, using less memory, running quicker, with more stability and making it much easier to implement.

It is hoped that the release of this code will kick-start the ST hard disk adaption scene, in much the same way WHDLoad has done for the Amiga. Indeed, ULS can perform many of the functions of WHDLoad, and offer serveral exciting new ones that were previously only seem in emulators!

MFP MC68901 delay mode desired frequency table [Hz]
Handout/reference for Atari ST MFP MC68901 timers programming (in pdf format). This goes for timers A,B,C and D in delay mode.
Feeding data register with given timer data value and setting proper timer division (4/10/16/50/64/100/200) will result in given frequency of interrupts (in Hz).

Demo coding tutorial by James Ingram
A tutorial on how to do various demo techniques on Atari ST/STe, including busting all borders, "infinite sprites" and how to scroll the entire screen horizontally in 1/50th of a second. N.B. there is a bug in the code which means that the "includes" file MUST be in the root directory. Also a file is missing..

Atari F030 + CT60 Hardware Register Listing V2.1 March 2009
List and description of hardware registers found in 16/32-bit Atari computers
Probably based on version 7.0 (FINAL REVISION) - 1/22/94 By Dan Hollis
CT60 parts (probably) updated by R.Czuba/D.Mequignon
Very important and up to date reference of Atari memory map. A must have for every Atari programmer. Title is little misguiding, because this memory map is used across all Atari models to maintain software compatibility (only some features are not present). For more details see Atari Compendium, Atari ST Internals or Profibuch ST-STE-TT.
