Finally - we can flash a calc using GtkTiLink - good.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
This site is DEAD!!!

Great, we have a new timm comming. How about DITHERING?!

How about a TI-89 version?

'cause the 89/92/92+ version would have to be a complete rewrite... the 82/83/83+/85/86 can all use mostly one codebase... I know. This Sucks. I wanted an 89 version too!

I can't wait, think of the possibilities...

What is dithering?

(haven't tried the probram yet, so i don't know if this guy is using the right words...)
dithering is a way to simulate gray with only black & white, or any in-between color that's not available using colors you do have.

imagine a very small checkerboard, this could be used to simulate a 50/50 mix. it's where those little tiny speckles in gif images come from.

To be more precise, dithering describes the process of reducing the number of actual colors in an image by replacing them with colors that are close to the originals.

Zeljko Juric, I don't want to seem rude but when were you updating 68k tetris for hardware 2?

Forget Tetris, play Queue, trust me! it's so sweet...

I found queue and fell in love. But it does lack one thing (despite the fact that it makes up for it in every other way), link play. Kurt if you are reading this I just want to write my praise of your program being a tetris nut and having played quite a few different tetris. The only real reason I want 68k tetris ported is so I can play link play with others with other calcs. YOU THE MAN KURT!

on the readme, that is the top priority on the TO DO list.

This is Kurt. I hear you guys, linkplay would double the fun of Queue. It will happen, oh yes, it will happen.

You the man Bubba. You the man.

You know its already in the archives... the 86 isn't that good, at least on vti. 83 runs smooth tho...

I've just tried to use a QuickTime movie for the 83+ in TIMM. It doesn't work.

Just thought y'all would like to know. (.avis seem to work, though.)

asim

How do I get Windows Media Player to play .mov and .avi so I can use those types of files too rather than just mpeg with TIMM?

I'm curious... how do phoenix and TIMM do on the 83? ok? i still remember when i had one... long ago ;) now the idiot i borrowed it to uses a CASIO just because he doesn't bother to read TFM. bah... 89 RULEZ!

I've tried TIMM, but you can't store very much on your calculator because the program files it makes are just too large! Also, it's often hard to see what's happening on the screen.

P.S. You can't store more on the 83+ than the 83, because the files can not be archived (actually, the 83 has more RAM than the 83+).

actually, you can play movies while they are archived.

Yeah, I'm not sure about Ion, but you can play archived movies in MirageOS.

Yeah, you can have your movies archived in ION too. If you do have them archived and run them, you'll have to garbage collect about 18.77645328 billion times.

This is a misconception. ION/Mirage etc. all have to UNarchive the program to use it. Then it REarcives it after it is done. That is why you have to Garbage Collect so much. Unarchive a program that you use alot so that you don't have to GC.
