Disks here are for the STOS programming language. Box scans and manuals are listed where available.

Please note, STOS & COMPILER have been updated by myself and Petari in 2014 to Version 3.00 . Please see THIS topic for more information.

If you have any more STOS related items to add to this page then please let me know :)


NEW STOS GENERIC FIXER - Petari 2014 STOSFP1.ZIP

This is small TOS executable, written in ASM. If using older TOS version, below TOS 2.0X need to rename to TTP, so can enter filename what want to fix. In TOS 2.06 and later use drag and drop. Of course, may use it as TTP too in higher TOS versions. Purpose is to make those by STOS created games to work on any TOS version, Falcon, TT, where other STOS patchers like STOSFIX3 would possibly fail.

In TOS 2.06 and higher use simply drag & drop of STOS executable file. In earlier TOS versions must use program as TTP, so rename to. Then need to enter STOS program file name. If not in same DIR as fixer, then must enter path too. If program detects that it is STOS executable will patch it. Before it will save original file with extension ORG - only if there is enough space on drive where original file is. There will be no warning in case of some error, so user must take care about free space and floppy reliability before running fixer.

There are packed STOS executables (SFX), with diverse packing systems. User needs to depack them first, otherwise will be not updated. If STOS exec is already fixed with some fixer, will be not updated most likely.


NEW STOS & STOS COMPILER V300 - Petari & exxos

Petari has kindly spent a lot of time fixing the STOS compiler to allow compiled programs to run on any TOS versions without the need for patching afterwards. The second bit of good news, is that while the latest official version of the compiler was 2.7, which only seems to have been available with the STOS 3D package, has since been updated with the assembly source code of version 208 which was posted by Francois Lionet on the Click Team's website some years ago. This is great news as we now have the updated V2.8 source, which has further been updated by petari creating version 3.00!

I (exxos) have also fixed some bugs in the compiler ACB and updated to suit the new V3.00 compiler. I have also added in a quick help section to explain what the options are in the compiler.

STOS2021.zip - ST 2021 pack - Contains missing link and misty installed.


FALCON STOS COMPILER (V300 TOS404) STOS_FALC_0115.zip - Jan 2015 pack

This version comes patched and updated with the Falcon extensions by Anthony Hoskin. These extensions are my full registered versions of the extensions as AFAIK the last version which AH produced. I have had no contact with AH since 1998 so I consider the extension abondonware. Anthony if you are out there then please get in touch!

NOTE: The STOS DRAW commands do not function well on the Falcon. These are replaced with Falcon versions such as "_falc draw" instead of STOS's "draw" command. These draw commands are backwards compatible with the ST.

Unfortunatly while other extensions like "The Missing Link" may work on the falcon, they will be limited to 16 colours in ST resolutions. Currently I am unware that any world or sprite extensions have been coded for use on the falcon.
