23k = huge??? (i have an 89)
TI said that the 24k limit on 68k calcs is "antipiracy protection"!!!

Dat's the dumbest thing i eva hoid (the piracy thing).

WHAT? Antipiracy protection? That's a big pile of bull shat.

what would one be pirating with an 89? that's worth a laugh.

Yeah, but I think that's only on the newer AMS 2.0X versions (correct me if I'm wrong)

Anti-piracy.... Well they obviously put that in there just to keep commercial companies happy (I don't know what they would have to fear from a calculator in the first place...) because it's easy to get around it, meaning that if TI was serious about the program limit, they would've done a better job. I also think the 83+ should have more RAM. I have an 83+ and an 89, with ~180k free RAM on my 89 and I can't stand the 24k on my 83+. I can't see why TI didn't increase that with the SE. Yes, I know they added more RAM, but normal progs can't use it so it isn't very useful.

About the game, it looks really cool, I'll put it on my calc soon. That reminds me, I saw the game Corridor 92 using the FAT engine a while ago, is that ever coming to the 89?

Corridor 92 has a file for the 89 with it (I think, that or it is compatible for the 89).

I just found it in the 89 archives. ehhhhh I guess I must've missed it in the recent file list when it came out because I was really looking forward to it. Time to go play!

I missed it too, but it's in there.

Nice to see that Maxcoderz finally finished one of thier projects. I hope we can see more great games from this group in the future.

are u related to Alex Roper (acr34)?

No

Okay, that was just weird.

(creator of gemini, really)

I just wanted to say that I'm not a member of MaxCoderz! I'm just an "affiliate" as they call me, so it wasn't really a MaxCoderz-game. But Kozak was a good friend to me, that's why I released it there.

Oh, ok. I thought it was a bit strange when MaxCoderz finished a game (not that I have much room to talk).

You haven't posted any news about Narkemen in a while (except on the discussion board). I can't wait for the final release. But I'm not gonna wet my pants, though. lol.

Unfortunately, my 83 won't send/receive (when I shake it, there is a rattling noise inside)

That wouldn't be good ...

Unless you can find another one like it, and then you have a pair of incredibly expensive maracas...

This is really the best post I've read since a long time.

Yeah, it was good laugh, even though that's probably not too funny for poor Chickendude. ;-)

The contact that the tip of the cable touches probably snapped. The same thing happened to mine. First I drilled out the top of the link port and put a wire in, which worked for awhile, but eventually my calculator needed a transplant from a deceased 86.

I also had to replace some keys on my 83 with keys from the 86 donor when I spilled acetone on it during chemistry.

I've had the tips of TWO link cables break off inside my 86. The second time, I had to open up the calc to get out the tip. Cheap TI products ....

I've never had that happen, and I've been using the calculators for 6 years. I think it's more of human error :)

Well, I DID keep the cables in my backpack and they would sometimes get underneath my binders and the such, so maybe it was just because I was abusing them.

I've seen that happen too, when someone was using my calc-calc cable. It was bent when someone else was using it prior to this though.
