As much as I hate Micro$oft, Windows XP isn't that bad. w00t!

I hope TI-86 users like Super Saiya-jin Rage. It may be ported to the 89/92+/V200 be me using TIGCC later, and maybe to the 83+, if Josh Gentry would like to. It still needs alot of work, but the bulk is hopefully done, by a team of experts (Really Bored Productions). PLC looks really useful. GOOD JOB!!! To any member of TICT reading this: WHY DOESN'T scanf( WORK IN TIGCC!!!, i'll just have to try to define it myself :)

>WHY DOESN'T scanf( WORK IN TIGCC!!!

Because it is too bloated. The smallest implementation of scanf which I made is still over 3.5 KB of code.

What does WinXP have to do with this topic? ..... While we're off topic, I can't get Ion to work on my friend's 83+. I'm using the right file, and I followed all the install instructions, but when I try to run prgmA, it just says "Done." Is Ion not compatible with OS 1.14? If that's the case could someone please tell me which version Ion does work with and where I can get it? Thanks

Did you run prgmION again??? Ion 1.6 works on OS 1.14. If that doesn't work get MirageOS (see web page). Great Job Michael V!!

That PLC program is awesome!!! My dad now takes my 89 away from me whenever he's working!

w00t!

Either that, or you don't have any ION games on your calc...

w00t!

Or you have an old version of ion.

Or your calculator is messed up...

kewl!... is your father an engineer?... what does he use PLCs for?

Basically, OS 1.14 is crap. I emailed TI about it & they said nothing was wrong with it. I told them it crashes like a drunk driver, doesn't handle Apps very well, & half the time the linkport doesn't work. I'm going to switch back to 1.13, If anyone has a copy. Does any one still have OS 1.13? Email it to me. RCTParRoThEaD@HoTMaiL.cOm
Thanx
w00t!


I think I'll email TI again. =p
w@@t!

Well, if you're right, then I agree with you. I'd rather have OS 1.13. But wasn't 1.14 released for support of TI Connect? (No offense to TI but that's not such a great program.)

So that's why my SE is having a hard time with the GraphLink 83+...ohhhh...Are you sure about this?

It happened to me several times.

I have copies of OS 1.12, 1.13 and 1.14
Yes, 1.14 does crash frequently,especially with OmniCalc- press y= and the whole clac does funky garbled text and the random 'exploding LCD' (only seen that once, but damn cool!).
Send me your email address to benryves@techie.com and I will send you a copy of the OS.
BTW, have you checked your TI Resource CD (comes in the box with the calc). That had OS1.12 on it (which works with VTI... w00t!)

Did you know that there's also a glitch in the Entries Menu? I saw it on Charlemagne's calculator...It didn't mess with the memory, but if you press the right buttons on it, you can see all this gibberish appear, scrolling down...down...down. We saw our own BASIC program code, Homework Manager, being scrolled. It was cool!

Also with the Y= menu: if you go to the Memory Management and go to the Y-Vars, you'll see that Y7, Y8, Y9, and Y0 are around 50000 bytes, and if you do anything with them...*plays dramatic music*

What was the purpose of TI Connect? (Just curious to know...)

w00t! f00l!

Another beatiful glitch in OmniCalc:
Type some *really* huge sum in (Sort of like 'Sin(Cos(Tan(Sin(Cos(Tan(Sin(Cos(Tan( etc... 90' until you have had enough (OmniCalc's copy and past feature is very useful).
Hit enter.
The run indicator appears and 30-40 seconds later the result appears. Now press '2nd'+'Enter' for the entries menu.
Total lockup: my calc refused to turn on at all (even after removing all batteries). I had to leave it for about half an hour without batteries to completely die.

Also, it might be your actual TI that is causing the dreaded 1.14 to screw: I'm not joking when I say that there are many different 'types' of TI-83Plus. Mine was bought from a shop in London- all the ones at the School shop here are different: I have a shiny black case, their calcs have a rougher case and it more grey-coloured (only obvious when compared to mine). My buttons have a different action (mine are less sqishy than the other ones) and the screen border on their calcs is a different colour: a faded yellowy colour (mine is greener). The internal hardware is different too: their calcs cannot run Crates3D through MirageOS and mine can (same OS etc...)
Strange indeed.
Long live the w00t!

Hmm well if someone e-mailed me about any bugs perhaps I could fix them...I probably didn't handle entries >256 bytes correctly.

Yeah, I can see where that would cause problems. Also, do you know of any good 83+(SE) application programming tutorials? (other than the 83plus SDK)

Wow! That's a really cool glitch! Well, maybe not if you have important files on your calculator.

Oh, and BTW, OS1.14 fixed a HUGE bug in 1.13...
If you have loads of programs installed, start the BASIC program editor.
Press 'PRGM', then right twice so that 'EXEC' is highlighted.
Press and hold the down button to scroll through the list: after a couple of seconds it stops and displays program names before crashing evilly.
This crashed my calc EVERY TIME without fail!

But it created many more.

This is so entertaining to hear people talking about OS 1.14 (or whatever the number is)

Never noticed any of these types of errors with the TI-82. Guess it's a bit too old for errors. ;-)

I have an 86 ... only error that I know of is the famous down-left hang, where pressing down-left causes the calculator to slow down tremendously.

on the home screen:

":->Y1

on the Y= menu:

Y2=RCL Y1

this will crash yaur calc!

OmniCalc needs 1.13 or higher.

Yeah, but I had just installed OS 1.13 when I cleared my RAM (after the OS RAM clear). I went to OmniCalc to do RAM Recovery, but it cleared my RAM again. What's wrong??? Does RAM Recovery only work with 1.14???

Well, my TI-83 plus SE has boot code 1.00 and base code 1.13 still. I have not loaded the upgrade yet. So how would I down load the OS for back up? I'll have to update my TI-83 plus graph-link first. That much I do know.

Send me OS 1.13 please. thanx

The file OS113.8xu is on the TI Resource CD version 2.4(03/2001) A new resouce disk comes out every 6 months or so. I only have verion 1.0, version 2.3(09/2000) and the fore mentioned.

don't load 1.14 it is crap

YES!!!

RCTParRoThEaD, we must bow to Paul Schippnick for being smart enough not to download OS 1.14. Let us bow, let us bow...

Could you also please send me OS 1.13??? I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

It was not a matter of being smart enough to install the 1.14 OS. I just hadn't got to it. I wanted to do some kind of back up first. It looks like I over wrote the old TI-83 graph-link program with its same version. Since the older copy of my graph link program came off the version 2.3(09/2000) CD. The graphlink program that I just installed is the one that I downloaded from the TI web site as per instructions before attempting to update the TI-83 plus SE OS. Now looking at the files I downloaded they were just the applications. I did not find the file for the OS 1.14. If I did download it, it is not in the correct directy. Hah, I haven't down loaded it yet. I must be thinking of the 2.05 OS for the TI-89. Which I have not updated yet ether. Thanks. (on my part being smart in this case had NOTHING do with it.)

Are you one of those nerdy calculator freaks who try to have all the graphing calcs possible??? (Oh wait, that's Michael Vincent...sorry)

w00t!

I hope I can get all the TI graphing calcs (for FREE!)

I'm sure we all would...

LINUX RULES!!!

agreed. but i'm not allowed to install it. I use TI-Linux for TSE II.

WINDOWS 3.1 RULES!!!

what are you smokin?

SKREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

DOS RULES!!!

Q-DOS!

OS 1.13!!!

w00t!

PYRAMIDS RULE!!!

PYRAMID PARADE!

<!--w00t!>PYRAMID w00t!

its not a pyramid unless it has comments comming down too. so it comes in and out.

Oh well...A pyramid that never ends!!! Keep the posts coming, everyone!!!

w00t!

Would I get flamed to death if I said I liked Micro$oft?

You would by me if you said you like Windows ME or Microsoft Outlook XP. w00t!

I do not completely loathe Windows XP. Please do not flame me!

AAH! I'M BURNING UP! (read above comment)
