we need to create an asm game where you are the bully at school and do bad things like bsting kids noses of throwing kids in lockers, planting stink bombs and so forth. i have made a basic program yet it is still incomplete if anyone wants to help make an asm and finish my basic email me at astone035@msn.com

i am really wondering how many people have played axis and allies. this is an old game about world war 2. i was wondering if someone could create flash application of this game so everyone can experience the thrilling of this game. this game is also a strategy game that takes hours to finish the first game but after the first u want to play again. to find info about this game look up axis and allies on the internet. you will find out it is an interesting game

i am just a basic programmer right now and i need to know how to lock programs so no one can take credit for it

ah. this is always a problem. any locked program can, in turn, be unlocked. the SIMPLEST way would be to get Codex or something and just use it. also, some Apps do it (mirageOS has the feature, but it can only be accessed if you put a ":" as the first line of the program, and then it appears in mirageOS lists and is easily unlockable. bad idea). or you can send it to your computer and open up TI Graph-Link (assuming you have this program since it comes with most calculators and can be gotten free at www.texasinstruments.com) and when editting the program there's a checkbox in the bottom of the window that says "protection" or something like that. it can STILL be unlocked by apps/programs/another person with graph-link. just don't trust your programs to be safe if you upload them. i never upload files i care about (then again.... i don't care about any of my files...)

I think that we need an exact copy of pokemon red/blue/yellow for the 68k calcs in C / ASM. I know this would probably take some time, but it would be well worth the time and effort. Currently, I don't know how to program ASM and know very little basic, so I can't do it myself. If anybody is interested in trying this or alread is in the make of this, plz e-mail me at gsg9_spetsnaz@yahoo.com.

i don't know if yellow would be too.... necessary with the creation of red and blue. also, trading pokemon would be impossible (to my knowledge) in BASIC. there is a way to send things through the link via BASIC, but even in programs tested with no bugs it doesn't work for me >.< god hates me. also, i think each game would take up HUGE space. perhaps a 100k-150k (estimating) app if you did black and white with crappy graphics. assuming the "exact copy" you mentioned, imagine a few times bigger than that. odds are you can't have red and blue on the same calculator.

Notice that I said "C/ASM", not BASIC. I know that it would be a tremendus size, that is why I suggested ASM/C.

Also forgot to mention, I had the TI-89 Titanium in mind when I posted this. A. Because of the 2.6 MB of storage space (and that's only the Arcive). B. Because of the growing demand for 89 Titanium games.

i have completed what i think to be the first ever (for the calculator of course) game SHELL. it basically includes all the programs in those menu-based RPGs plaguing the net (let's count! 1...2....3... >.<) only it's better because it's not as easy to win, and there's a much better thought-out leveling system, along with HUNGER. why do you want to get hungry in the game? it keeps you from training day after day until you're invincible. now you have to stop every now and then to eat, plus food costs money to you have to worry about that. it basically puts a whole new concept of difficulty into the game. unfortunately (since i have no emulator and my TI calculator was stolen) i have not had time to make certain aspects of the game. it's okay though, since you may enjoy making your own. i'll be uploading the soon, so be on the lookout for it.

downside:
LOTS of work to be done. the program only covers the basics, and still needs a fighting system (i was nice enough to let you make your own), stats for enemies (i haven't even thought up enemy NAMES yet), and... well it's included in the readme thing >.<

Has any one thought of doing a virual pet i havent seen one.

Okay... The other day i had an idea for what i think would be a pretty cool game. Now, the problem is, that i want to do it in assembly, because Basic is just too slow, and i dont know how to do assembly. Also, this game is just an idea too, i dont know if, or how it would work in assembly. So im asking anyone thats interested in working with me in making this game to email me about it. When you email me ill tell you the details of the game. But ill tell you right now its a 2-D Fighter game, but there are some things that i think would be cool, but might sound a little weird at first. So email me if you have asm knowledge and want to at least hear the idea...Thanks

I just got an idea for a game that i think would be pretty cool. The only problem is, i want to do it in assembly, and i dont program assembly. So im asking for help on this. The game, is a 2-D fighter game, but not a traditional one. I have some ideas that i think would make it pretty cool. So if youre interested, or want to hear out the rest of the idea, please respond, or reply by email. Im asking for anyone that has knowledge of asm, and who thinks they can help in this type of game. Thanks...

ah yes, but if you only had one hand you'd be saying "it's not like I have TWO HANDS you know!", but you do, so there >:-Þ

uh yeah, I'll have an RPG type game, a Metroid imitation, a couple of boardgame programs, and a side order of gray-scale graphics.

Can I get that with any sound?

...you know people, that is not exactly what these boards were intended for (well sorta, but it's usually less annoying to have an actual programmer come up with realistic ideas or for a person to learn some programming on their own). Okay, these boards are for ideas, but its not like there's a line of programmers ready to make what you want :-)

..actually, some of the best things come from here, i.e. TICT if I am not mistaken; also I got the idea that brought about the eventual idea of my wonderful project that is getting nearing to completion: a high-level programming language for all the z80 calcs that looks similar to C/C++ and Java (but much simpler) (and some happy "basic" syntax), that is all oriented toward assembly...blah blah blah...all that happy stuff like datatypes, user-defined variables, functions/procedures/methods/routines that take and return values, etc etc and it all compiles into assembly for TI82,83[+][SE],84+[se],85,86; it is setup so that basically you can use it do do anything that you could do in assembly.

Interested? talk to me (shkaboinka@yahoo.com, or send an IM to me as CrazyProgrammer)

Can someone develop a really great monopoly for the 83/84 series?? There are so many great monopoly games for the 86 and 89/92 but none for the 83/84 series.

Can anybody help me with a BASIC screen scrolling program... i use the pxltest so i need to reset some varibles first. this is for the 83+

this is prbly a dumb q, but how do u remove an element from a list on the ti-89?
for the 86 i remember i had to store -1 to the element do a sortD and redimension the list
[ dim(list)-1->dim(list) ]

please help me, i would greatly appreciate it!

Hey guys i Am kInDa new tO this WhoLe programing thing i was woonderign if you GuYs cOulD help me out and tell Me hoW to do Game animations with somthing other then pics. Thanks

"It is time"
-Neo, THe Matrics

what language do you program in?

IF Ti-83 it is very tough.
I have found that the best way to do it is using bitmapping with matrices.
to do this make a matrix and use "1" for pxl on and "0" for pxl off
then you can put that picture anywhere on the screen

BUT BEWARE this method does not move smoothly
you can also use the line and circle functions.

make sure you set your window
o->Xmin
94->Xmax
-62->Ymin
o->Ymax

these are your screen dimensions

a good tutorial can befound at bgo.netfirms.com

Will some1 plz show me how to run a BASIC program from an asm prgm? thx

OK...Some one HAS to make a NL Texas Hold'em poker game for the TI-83 plus (SE)! It should have 3 computer players and you. Also make sure there is betting in between the flop, turn, and river. Try to make the computers fold ever once in a while too...don't make them all stay in ever time. Let me know what you guys think. Send me an e-mail for more info. O...and it can be in ASM or BASIC (which ever you prefer). Good Luck guys and thanks!

working on it.

release will be some time in february.
main program is finished i am just speeding it up and adding AI.
