TI-83+ Programming Group
HearWa Account Info
(Web Page)

I'd like to start a TI-83+ programming group for those who are interested.

However, I'm biased against BASIC so I naturally don't want to work with it. Instead I'm looking for a group of people who are interested in writing code for one of the C compilers available and/or assembly language.

I've been learning and coding in C/C++ for a few years now, and I'm currently learning Z80 assembly.

I like the TI calculators as a development platform because it takes us back to a time when we had real memory and speed constraints, thus provoking us to be as efficient as possible with the provided resources. Plus I consider them to be mini pocket PC's capable of many tasks, and it's from the same processor family as the origional gameboy.

So if anybody's up for a challenge to improve your skills (learning how to detect bottlenecks with the Big-O notation, working on various forms of compression, etc.) and you're interested in coding games, send me an e-mail.

How to minimize memory useage of a Ti83+ BASIC game?
Herbgrow Account Info
(Web Page)

Hi my name is Alex and I have a Ti83+ calc. The BASIC (it's the only language I know) game I'm writing right now ended up a little too large for the amount of memory on my calc. I know there is a way to do this using the computer, or maybe one of you guys would want to take the idea of my game and rewrite yourselves. Write me back please at www.myspace.com/herbgrow. THANKS!

Memory Too Big
Herbgrow Account Info
(Web Page)

I have recently made a game in BASIC on my ti83+. I was just wondering if there was a way to shrink the size of the prgm or somehow decrese the memory enough. A ERR: Memory Full comes up very frequently while playing. Maybe someone would like to rewrite it for a computer. Write me back: www.myspace.com/herbgrow. Peace

Spotted your old ad. Look over my resume and my past experience. I have a great gambling game tested my Carol Rehtmeyer back in 1994 before gambling took off. This game has a blacjack theme. I noticed besides the TV shows doing poker they now have a show with blackjack. This game was tested with gamblers and seniors and Rehtmeyer stated in her report the gamblers didn't want to put the game down. I have a copyright on the game. The game is entitled "BANKERS BLACKJACK". This game could be setup like video poker, put on CD, put on gambling sites, endless. After game licensed to software company for casinos we could hold onto hard copy board game rights and parly the popularity of the software package to a big selling board game to a major board game company. This is a top rated game and i don't know anyone in the software business. I need a 50% partner to put this to software.

Hey I am a pretty good BASIC programmer. Could some please post some sample code for a game that would shot shoot "aliens" that come down at a set interval, but still be able to move your "spacecraft" while the aliens are coming down.

If you could I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

I am a fairly new 83 Plus programmer. I have been working on a shooting game in which you are looking through the scope and aiming at a target. I need to figure out how to develop a point system for the target, but am not quite sure how. If anyone knows how or has a written source code for a shooting game please email me at nicatnight_06@hotmail.com
Thanks
