I am sure this new AMS release is all bug fixes. Yeah right... this it TI we are talking about.

I'm sure people will be able to handle the few problems that come with bugfixes in a mature and constructive manner. Yeah right... this is the TI community we're talking about.

We (I) appreciate TI's work on their calculators. However I think that new AMS versions should have additional features (like the cool archive recovery) and not stupid limitations as the HW1 half archive limit or the 8/24kb ASM HW1 software limit. And I won't talk about compatibitily issues or HW2 hardware ASM limit because that's a more delicated task.

But those limitations are what makes us get angry with TI. They are already broken, so I really don't understand why TI still 'feature' them in every new AMS version. As we always say, we don't want to crack TI Apps, but using our quality software in our calcs. So putting stupid restrictions really makes us mad.

That's it.

Thank you, and I mean it. I sincerely appreciate being able to see your thoughts in a constructive manner. Intelligent people like you are what we need more of. My complaint is only with people who complain to complain without seeing the positives, as well as questioning the motives of a company, as if it were out to get them. Keep being one of the good ones.

Yes. I really don’t see why TI puts restrictions like that on the calculator, especially when they know people will just find a way to bypass them anyway. All it does is annoy everyone.

I haven't even had time to send v2.04 to VTI yet, and now there's a 2.05...

Also... Shouldn't you put a message that explains that "you" (ticalc.org) take no responsibility for any damage (etc..) done by installing this AMS. You always have done that and you might want to.
Thanks again!

Yay! Another AMS...I guess this means more work for ASM game coders and shell coders, that is if they are willing to work with AMS 2.05. I like my TI-89 a lot, but when it comes to updating AMS, it gets confusing and takes too long to just sit there and flash my calc. Some of the cooler games for 89 don't work on the new AMS 2.0x, for example Sonic MisAdventures and Super Mario...also I can't get Picture Viewer 1.3 to work either. I know they work on AMS 1.00, but I'd rather not flash my calc to 1.00 because I don't like 1.00. Can anybody do something about this?

I don't think the situation is that bad at all. I had no problems running Super Mario Quest on either 2.04 or 2.05 under Universal OS.

Super Mario Quest runs great under Doors OS II 0.98 on my hw2 ams 2.04 calc.

You have to make sure you have the special 2.0x version of SMQ. The older one doesn't work.

I just downloaded this ROM and tested it under VTI. Compatibility seems to be about the same as with 2.04; almost everything works under Universal OS, and most programs work under TEOS.

Hey, I think Phoenix crashes when restoring a saved game in AMS2.05!!

i hope not.

It doesn't save high scores on AMS 2.05, I tried

Does anyone know if MaxMem works on AMS 2.05?

Let's see:
I don't know what the "improvement" in Flash App management is, but Finance (which, by the way, seems EXACTLY like the 83 version) shows up in the mode->Split 1 App menu.
The "archived program bug" IS fixed.
MaxMem says "Not a HW1 2.01/2.03/2.04 calculator"
My nostub programs (I swore off of kernals a while ago because the often made the math stuff malfunction) work perfectly.

well, i guess i'll wait for maxmem to work then.

It shouldn't be too long, I doubt TI actually changed anything to prevent MaxMem from working. MaxMem is smart, it doesn't install itself on AMS versions it doesn't know about, because there is a small chance that it could mess up the entire calculator beyond what a reset could repair.

It says the same thing for HW2 patch, and for some of you that think that you're soo funny, I DO HAVE A HW2 CALC.

AS DO I.

100% perfect with DoorOS v0.98!! All my ASM progs work.

All YOUR programs, such as the ones you wrote yourself, or all the ASM programs you use...?

Both. Plus, i have HW2

100% perfect with DoorsOS o.98 ???
Have you installed AMS 2.05 ????
I have this upgrade on my TI92Plus HW2 and...
1- hw2patch() not work
2- when install Doors my calc freeze !!!
HELP !!!

My guess would be that you can't use DoorsOS without HW 2 Patch, and you can't install HW 2 Patch because the author wants to make sure it still works on any new AMS versions TI comes out with.

This happened to me too!!! Where can I find a chell for AMS 2.05, where I can play games like SMQ?
