Is there any way I can get the source code or the actual code for ZTetris. I really want the game but I dont have a cable to send data from my computer yet. Thanks.

-Brian

What's up Brian. I am in the same boat when it comes to transfer cables. So, if someone is kind enough to send you the text for tetris, please be kind enough to send it to a fellow tetris fan(more important, a fellow student who is bored in physics class). I hope to hear from you soon. thanks alot.

Well, if TI can't achieve harmony among calculators why can't we? Well, ZTetris has accomplished just that. Once Ahmed ports it to the TI-83, you will be able to link 82, 83, 85, 86, or 92 together in any combination and play tetris over the link. Now why didn't TI think of that? I, being the only person with a GRAPH-LINK at school, provide all the games for everyone. But I don't have a TI-82 or TI-83, so I am writing a program for the TI-86 which allows the 86 to link between calculators. You still can't use the data, but you can give it to people with the right calculator. No more taking calculators home...

Wow, that would be great! I always liked ZTetris because of the link play capability, and so I am getting to work.. if TI just wouldn't make their link routines so complicated!

Exactly, what's with TI, why couldn't they make all the calcs compatable, ESPECIALLY with programs. Nice work Ahmed.

Great idea Kirk, I have the same problem with my friends at school. They all want me to get games for them too, when do you think you'll have this program done by?? And will it be compatible with all of the TI calcs that have the linkport?

What school do you go to?

What state?

Hey, excellent! :) I have a few friends with TI-82s, and one with a TI-83, and they see ZTetris, then I can only give them that lame Zetris game. One person didn't mind, "It works," he said. Indeed, but I will send my highest regards and thanks to the person who finally ported the best Tetris clone to the TI-82.

(Thanks to Jimmy Mårdell for ZTetris in the first place, too, hehe.)

Ztetris v0.93 should be on ticalc.org by tonight. I have fixed 2 more bugs. Unfortunately, I added 20 bytes to the prog.

Porting an 86 game to the 83 is an excellent idea. It seems that, for the longest time, the 83 was left out of universal ASM games and programs. Being an 83 user myself, I found this to be frustrating, seeing as the two-player games I made could never be tested because my friends have 86s. Keep up the good work, and I hope to see other games ported to the 83 in the future.

Actually the games are being ported to the from the 85 to the 82 by me. And the 83 has been left out of the loop because my 83 was stolen last September. Now in the last month, Ahmed has been porting all of my 85->82 ports to the 83.

Where's Ztetris .93 already? What bugs were fixed?

Sam Heald hasn't given it to me yet.

Oh, Sam e-mail me today and told me that his floppy disk that hade the new version on it, had become corrupted, and said that it was his only copy.

I completely lost v0.93. Oh well. Look for v0.99 very soon. I have the speed, gaps, and title screen working to perfection. The only reason I don't call it v1.0 is that I want to release an AS v3.1 and CrASH v1.3 versions. I also want to optimize it some more. My title screen bug solution added 99 bytes to the prog. I am sure there is a much better way of doing it.

Hey, Great game guys, but how do you udo that, level 72 thing in the 2 player game, where the 9 chnages to the x? please e-mail me anybody who knows how to do that, thanks so much, great game though. E-mail Dated as of 1/21/99

ok, I am sorta an idiot when it comes to getting these programs on my calc. (TI-86) so my Q is can I put this into my TI-86?! E mail me with the answer please! THanks-
