Don't you find it odd that the first program to break 250,000 is not considered a featured program. I e-mailed ticalc.org about making it a featured program. They have yet to reply.

I tried using VirualTI, but first it was compicated to get a 83+ ROM, i had to download TLIP to download the ROM using the USB Silverlink. Silverlink sucks, no programs use it sides ti connect's device explorer and TLIP!!! Grrrrrrrr....... And once i got the ROM image, which took little time going at like 5 kb/s on my XP Box. Then when i loaded the ROM in VirtualTI, the (virual) calc wouldn't do anything!!!! just sat there, and i know its not just slow cause i got 1.6ghz p4 w/ 512 RAMBUS 800 ram! Grrrr............

Virtual TI cannot run TI-83 Plus SE ROMs at all and cannot run TI-83 Plus ROMs versions 1.13 and higher.

I'm sorry you have such a bad computer...heheh.. Sorry i'm an AMD freak. I run a 2000+ AMD atholon XP. I use the ASUS A7n266 - VM. It will blow that p4 out of the water, even with a 1600+ XP. 2 sticks of 256 SDRAM. It is a kick butt system for just a little more than $400. but that is extremelly barebone, i have all the other parts just laying around.

It's strange isn't it. But from what I can tell, obviously not having designed the IC's myself, the AMD makes the Intel P's look inefficient.
And the PPC make the AMD's look very inefficient.
What does that make the Intel chips?...

Ah how I want a mac laptop.

Virtual TI is awesome! It has saved me numerous times from installing programs that would otherwise have screwed up my calc.

I just use it for simulating calcs I don't have, to try programs. I stick with Flash Debugger for 83+.

It (the debugger) works on 98, and on XP in compatibility w/ 98. It should work on 95 tho.

I use VTI regularly. In fact, I use the debugger very frequently to debug my assembly programs. I've found some problems with the emulator though, like with the way it handles mode 2 interrupts (TI-86).

Another problem I found is when I tried to use its ROM dump program on my TI-92+. The calc sent most of its ROM to VTI, then my calc mysteriously crashed. I later downloaded the ROM from TI's web site, as well as the TI-89 ROM (hee hee :). They work perfectly in VTI.

Other than a few small bugs like that, it's pretty good.

By the way, this is the same version I've been using since November last year. I'm just wondering if Rusty will update it sometime, such as un-beta it or improve the emulation a little? I think he should release it under the GNU GPL (no, this has nothing to do with Linux and the like) so that everyone is and will forever be free to modify it and distribute it (as in free speech, not free beer).

hehe... I have an 89 and downloaded the 92+ rom...
I was wondering the same things about the beta, because it's been in beta 2.5 since a year or two ago. I think that Rusty's disappeared, because I emailed him a month ago and he still hasn't replied. Although it is unlikely, he might have died and no one else has his passwords or knows him in person, so he would be in limbo (considered alive, but dead in reality).

I'm thinkin that's a bit of a stretch, because he most likely just got bored, trust me, EVERYone gets bored eventually of what their doing (list stupid no_one jokes next), and if he stopped, he probably wouldn't check his email to often, and therefore, i just forgot what i was goning on about, so ahh, thats the end.

You'd think that no_one would ever get board if they made a program that was ticalc.org top download 99.9% of the time.

To the best of my knowledge, Rusty IS NOT DEAD. I believe that he is now under contract with TI to continue development of VTI for use as the emulator in whatever TI's development tools are called (i.e. it is no longer free). Flash support is implemented, but only in private builds that I have not been able to get my hands on. Also, VTI is currently not released under the GPL, but a similar custom license. Basically, it is the GPL but you must state that the emulation core came from MAME and anything else came from VTI. The last (official) release was March of 2000, so 2 1/2 years ago.

All of that information was gleaned from several message boards, and may not be accurate.
