I'm makin a diablo game. If there's nething ne1 wants me to include in it post her. thnx

I love Diablo if you ever get this done i would gladly help you beta test it.

SO far, i think i have the fighting engine just about done, do u want me to upload it onto the site soon?(magic casting isnt done yet)
And, I think that the hardest thing about is that i cant program in asm, so, when im done, if ne1 wants to convert it into asm then go right ahead.

On page one of this forum there is someone else with the same idea. Like I said there, I know basic for the 89. I also know Java, C++, JavaScript, etc. so I could learn ASM pretty quickly.

Hey, I got a little command for Bram Tant. He is a wonderful guy. But (yes BUT) he cant program. Ever went to his site? He says that Worms is his project. Well it isn't. Because he copied the original demo from the french people: Léo Ducas and Julien Faixo. I call Bram a really good loser. For what: If you copy games and put them on your name, I call this WEAK!!.
Ik noem dit ZWAK!!

Good news, I have finished a text game called Assassin. You are an assassin going after Saddam and you have to buy new weapons to get powerful enough to defeat him and several other opponents. Send me a message if you want it. It will be a while before you get it though, I need to go to Dubuque to do it.
P.S. How would I put it into something like MIRAGE OS?

hey~ the game sounds aswome and i would love to have it i was wondering how much it would cost. if you would want i could give you a couple of my games for that one.

how much it would cost? lol

I have a couple ideas for games (hopefully for ti-83+).

One is a greyscale BattleBots with AI matches, money, and custom bots, like the computer game. (It might be easier to do a separate program for the modifier/customizer and the actual game and linked battles would be cool too.)

The other is a racing game where you pilot a little futuristic racecraft (kind of like jetskis) on the walls of a circular tunnel with no gravity, obstacles/barriers, AI (other ships), bonuses, boosting, checkpoints, attributes (armor, speed, acceleration) and complicated courses with curves in all directions. This game is modeled after Ballistica, which I saw once in a video arcade and haven't been able to locate since. If you want to see a very basic model of the layout, go to www.2flashgames.com and play Ghost.

The most important thing about the tunnel game - that I forgot to say - was that rather than your craft moving around the wall of the tunnel, it should appear that THE TUNNEL ROTATES and that you are stationary.

Does anyone have any asm code that quickly draws a portion of a circle (an arc) with radius r, from angle a to angle b. I have a way to do it in basic but it is VERY slow, inconsistant for different sized circles, and is very badly coded. An example of what I might want to do would be to:
draw an arc that resembles a 'C' with radius 2 from +60 degrees to -60 degrees (+300 degrees).

IS THERE ANY EASY WAY TO DO THIS? -> A FUNTION/OVERLOADED METHOD?

Well, when you thing back to trig class, you may recall that old unit circle. Basically, when you draw a circle, cosine can be used as the x and sine as the y. I don't know if it is the fastest way, but it works. So if you wanna draw an arc from 60 degrees to 300 degrees with a radius of 2, it would look something like:
ClrDraw
Degree
ZSquare
For(A,60,300,6
Pxl-On(2cos(A),2sin(A
End
It wouldn't be a perfect arc until you zoom squared. Also, in the For statment, the six is the number of points plotted. If you made a smaller radius arc, you could make the six larger to increase speed, and vice versa. I hope this helps.

I'm currently learning how to program in C using TIGCC but I haven't found any tutorials that have good explanations of how to move sprites. I can make them move a certain number of pixels in any direction but I can't figure out how to move them while holding a key down. If you can give me a good tutorial or sprite routine e-mail me at Elekid24@cs.com or post something.

I've come up with a few ideas for games. One is StarCraft (and I KNOW SO MANY PEOPLE have tried but the best we've gotten so far is the ability to play as the Protoss and build some units but there isn't even an enemy team). My second idea is Legend of Dragoon for the calc (anyone know what that is?). Finally I want to learn ASM programming myself, but I've tried downloading every ASM guide there is and its a bunch of nonsense. The first lessons start off with stuff I don't even understand!!! I also can't get VTI to work on my comp (it says I dont have a link established with my calc and wont let me run the program, i have an 83+). Any help would be appreciated by e-mail aaronofpaul@hotmail.com

Sorry about the size of this....
I wanted to make a starcraft or warcraft game once, but I could never figure a way to draw the characters as sprites. For the rom, although it is illegal if you don't have a calc, you can download one off of some French guy's site. As for help with asm:

www.ticalc.org/pub/text/z80/83pa28d.zip
An excellent set of tutorials.

www.ticalc.org/pub/win/asm/ z80workshop.zip
This program is the best for actually writing the code (in my opinion).

www.ticalc.org/pub/win/calcgs.zip
A program the helps you make sprites.
www.education.ti.com/ downloads/pdf/us/ 83sysroutines.pdf
This lists all the commands that you can use in assembly if you ever want a list.

www.ticalc.org/pub/win/ calccapture.zip
This program takes screenshots.

http://download.microsoft.com /download/vb60pro/redist /sp5/win98me/en-us/ vbrun60sp5.exe
If you do not already have vb6 runtime (on most new computers) then you will need to download this if you are going to use the z80 workshop.

There are a couple of things you should know when you get started in asm:
1) If you use z80 workshop, you will need to use bcall(_xxxx) instead of b_call(_xxxx).
2) Don't give up. It may be difficult at first, but you will get it eventually.

Not sure if this is suggested aready...

why not make a gray-scaled game in 3D with sounds for the Ti-83+, theoretically it works (i know file size and speed problems)

First, in my opinion the sound on the calc isn't good for games. But grayscale wouldn't be too bad. I think the hard part would be the 3D. I don't know too much about raycasting, but it sounds pretty hard.

hey im a beginer and i have a ti 83+se and i was wondering if any one knows how to put onto a program so u can't edit it i've got some like that i just don't know how to make it

hey~ i was wondering if anyne could create an APPS thingy on an ti 83+se. what i mean is like creating a new APPS like u would a new program

I have an answer to both of these questions. First, if you get Mirage OS or just search through assembly misc programs, you should be able to find something to protect programs. But it is also possible to unprotect those programs. Second, if you want to make an app out of a basic program, you can use a file on this site. I forget what its called, but I think it is a windows program. Or you will need to learn asm.

look as u can tell im a beginner and could u explain excactly how to protect a progam nd unprotect it. if it would be easier u could e-mail be at wild_man_07_@hotmail.com. thx a bunch

sry about all of the things. computer messed up and thought it wasn't goin to display them. so i redid them

as you probably know im a beginer and i was wondering if you could explain more cleary how to protect and unprotect a program if it would be easier you could e-mail me at wild_man_07_@hotmail.com

as you probably know im a beginer and i was wondering if you could explain more cleary how to protect and unprotect a program if it would be easier you could e-mail me at wild_man_07_@hotmail.com

as you probably know i am a beginer and i was wondering if you could explain more cleary how to protect and unprotect a program if it would be easier you could e-mail me at wild_man_07_@hotmail.com

Give me a day and I'll make a program that does that for you. I will email it to you.

thx but i can't download onto my computer could u write it out onto an e-mail thx
