Quick Updates
Posted by Nick B. on 30 July 2002, 21:02 GMT

With the last weeks of summer vacation ticking away, back-to-school season is once again upon us. However, the last couple of weeks of July were not completely inactive in terms of new releases, so let's have a look:

Joe Flint released The King of Fighters 2000 for the TI-83 and TI-83 Plus. This advanced fighting game has been in development for over two years and includes fourteen playable characters.
Greg Dietsche has relased KerNO v2.0. Essentially a kernel (of sorts) that provides features for nostub programs, including ways to break out of ASM programs that are not responsive, removes ASM size limits, and enable ASM programs to return values in expressions. New things in this version include improved keyboard responsiveness, bug fixes, and Voyage 200 support (in the 92+ version). Available for the TI-89 and TI-92 Plus.
Patrick Davidson has released a slight update to the Phoenix Platinum Edition for the TI-89 and TI-92 Plus (which should work on the Voyage 200 as well).
Also, calc.org and its hosted sites are now back up, so be sure give them a look.

HEY EVERYBODY, HERE'S ANOTHER REMINDER! With the school year coming, you all know another thing is coming-- HOMEWORK! Therefore I ask you all to check out my Homework Manager program for TI-83+ (see website link). I do this for your sake and the sake of your grades.

I don't believe it.

The dude who has the most files, Michael Lloyd, doesn't even do assembly. But he has 224 BASIC files. On another note, Pat D's games are great, but when ever I hit the on key in MirageOS when i play them, they reset the RAM. No one else's (not even no_one'S) games do that in MirageOS. The on key pauses asm programs, but it kills Pat's games & my ram. Why? p00p! to Michael Lloyd! He is a b00b!

If you also noticed, none of his (Michael Lloyd) programs are games--all math, and just a few Misc. programs.

Patrick's games must be using the statvars, where the MirageOS interrupt is located.

Could you give me some details on this? I tried it both with both Galaxian (where the ON key worked) and Phoenix (were it didn't actually stop the game) and it didn't crash in either case. In particular, I'd like to know the exact version of MirageOS you used, as well as the name and exact version number of the specific game(s) that this happened with. Also some other details about anything that happened might be nice, such as whether it crashed immediately or only after exiting.

What ROM version does he have? That might have something to do with it. Patrick's games never crashed any of my calculators.

or mine. Also, I thought that you disabled the interrupts because I've tried "pausing" them but it doesn't work, I think it doesn't, at least. I don't have phoenix on my calculator anymore (I reset it) so I can't check.

Try it with ZTetris while playing in MirageOS v1.1.

I actually am not the author of ztetris. It was written mainly by Jimmy Mardell, and all I did was provide some assistance to Sam Heald in converting it to the TI-82/83/83+. Have you observed this with any other programs, particularly ones that were originally by me (that would be Galaxian, Orzunoid, Pac-Man 99, Phoenix, Phoenix 3, and Z-Kart)?

Not really, some are a little unstable at times, but they're still alot of fun.
