Greetings all
As I look at all these other interesting ti89 apps, I realize that most of them require upgrades to the ti89 os, or something like that.
But anyways, I currently have an 89 with HW2, and version 2.03 (12/08/1999). Is it wise for me to upgrade? Even if I am an avid ti89 assembly game player? Please give me some input on this. Thanks.

Actually, I would recommend you upgrade. If you have DoorsOS, switch to UniOS. It is more stable. In addition to being able to use more Apps, AMS 2.05 has automatic recovery of archive mem. Bottom line: you crash it, you can still get the archive back. MaxMem and HW2 Patch also both work fine on 2.05. If you don't like 2.05, go back (I _COULD_ send it to you if you don't have it). In general, most ASM games will work on 2.05, especially the newer ones, and even more so those created with TIGCC because of the way it works. I would recommend the upgrade.

Oh, pleeeeeeeeeeeez PPPLLLLEEEEAAAASSSEEE send me the TI-89 rom without the HW2 thingy! DoorsOS games won't work with my TI-89. *cry* PPPPLLLEEEAAASSSEEE!!!! (I think it's legal if I own an 89, which I do.)

hw2 is a hardware version, it's internal

Geez, just d/l UniOS and HW2Patch (I'm to lazy to find them for you today, look for them in the archives here).

Okay I'm looking for them now. Just out of curiosity, what is UniOS and HW2Patch?

What a pain in the arse. Why can't they just provide a direct link? They better not mail me anything or sell my address!

They won't.

Because they have to sign the app.

Te he... They finally responded to all the messages i wrote to them about having no good free applications.

Complaining works sometimes...

Indeed it does. I have profited (from TI, of course) some $600 dollars worth of stuff from that contest nearly a year ago. I complained (in a single email) about not having an under-16 division. They added one, they posted my points in my email in the FAQ, I won. w00t for complaining!

heh, so it was u

good work, I only wish I knew, I could have entered Hello World (or my ill fated buggy ASCIIPad) and one like 3rd place;)

I guess <16 don't program much

well I was back when I was 13 so hah!

Speaking of winning stuff from TI, I just won a silverlink from them in their name the mathematician deally. I answered it before April started and I just barely got the email. Go to the link above to see what I mean.

You sure that link's right?

Oh, sorry, left a part out. It works now. And off to my website to post on this :)

Hey, wasn't that contest supposed to be the "first annual"? I wonder if they'll have another sometime soon.

I hope so :-)

The order confermations and purchasing are waaaay to redundent and slow. TI needs to clean some stuff up a bit.

Hi, I was wondering that, if there is someone who could give me some help learning ASM for the TI 83+, I would really appreciate it. I have read all of the tutorials and I have made a couple tiny programs, nothing special. I am working on one right now, and I was wondering if there was someone who knew a lot about ASM (83+) that could maybe look over my source and give me some pointers and help me out with some things such as matrixies. My program is one I made in BASIC a long time ago, and there is a lot of Matrixies in it, but in ASM, Matrixies are HARD. If you can help me any, email me at bacon_cow@hotmail.com, or leave a message here. Thank you!

Ah, I was once like you. I sent emails to all the greats asking dumb questions. I got flamed, and I'm glad I did. It taught me to look around first, then ask.

I remember crying from frustration when I couldn't find any good tutorials.

You CAN learn ASM if you stick with it, and you have the concentration.

Good luck

why must the newbies always spam in a completely un-related discussion? do they think we care?

>I remember crying from frustration when I couldn't find any good tutorials.<
You would think that people who remember what it was like to be a newbie and get flamed for it would have a little more compassion for others in the same boat. It’s not fun to be attempting to learn a new skill and get treated like crap by people who are in a position to offer help. I know we all hate hearing the same questions over and over again- especially when there is a link to an archive or FAQ practically under the newbies nose-but being tolerant and if possible, helpful, benefits all of us in the long run. “Pay it forward”.
Sermon over :)

actually it works the other way. I wondered why they hated me. Now I know

Do you think i care...This is a werewolf forum...no calc crap in here ;=) AOOUoUOUOUOOoooOOOOooooo Guns w/C-Mags and Katana's are ok though. ;=)

Um........ isn't it Matrices?

Yep. I'm surprised MathJMendl didn't pick that one up first ... he's always complaining about you're being spelled your.

God help you.

ASP?
