i am not sure how i did it but in a asembley program a made the power surge and it glowed green and got warm and the 7 key the key got blasted of the key pad.

You mean screen glowed green or entire calc?

not that I believe you...

That guy (george linkington) writes baloney all over the boards. Just ignore him.

did anyone make an asm prgm that will paste the string saved in ans to anywhere on the screen (specified with variables x and y) using the large 5x7 font?

I don't know about ASM, but I can do it in BASIC:

[[HOME Screen:]]
------
Output([Y variable],[X variable],Ans
------
[[GRAPH Screen:]]
------
Text(-1,[Y variable],[X variable],Ans
------

I've figured out in BASIC how o create great pics in code by using the draw functions; however, it takes alot of room and is very time consuming to code. I was wondering if there was a simpler war to code pictures. (I don't want to create pictures and store them, I want to write them IN my programs.)

Sorry, but there is no solution to this problem. I have a way using lists/matrices and two For( loops, but it takes forever if there's a lot to draw. If anyone wants it, ask me at fists_h@msn.com.

how would the .707 be shown i hexidecimal

Do you mean the irrational number sqrt(.5)? That is approximately 0.B504F334. The number 0.707 is approximately 0.B4FDF3B6.

I am making an assembly 3d graphing program using (X,Y,Z)=(x+.707Z,Y-.707Z), but i dont know how to show .707 in hexidecimal.

What is REALLY needed is a Paintlike editor for TI-84+ Pic files for the PC. If anyone has made one or will be making one, let me know.

Why is this needed? Just use a standard image editor of your choice, then convert the image to a TI-84+ PIC file with a simple converter program.

I'll leave it as an exercise to you to write the converter. :)

(I do stuff like this all the time "by hand" with TI-86 program files and images, using little more than standard *nix tools: echo, dd, tr, pngtopnm, bmptoppm, and sometimes one-use C programs).

Someone should get down to business and crack the 86 assembly language and create 3D graphing software for the 86, you know what I'm talking about? Just like the 89, only on the 86

What exactly do you mean when you say "crack the 86 assembly language"? There is no need for it to be cracked... ^_^

LOL this is the one thing that I could never figure out if someone could figure it out for me and email the code to me I would be so greatful:
I need a program thaat dissects the picture on the screen into lines and points then stores it into Str1 so I can recall it in my program and not have to use pics. Thank you

I have multiple ideas for programs that run in basic very fast and use tiles and sprites so it isnt a crappy gamr. One is a racing, one is a 1st person shooter(not sketchy movement with pics), another is a GTA types, and another is just an RPG. We only have four programmers in our group.One graphic maker,one coder,one animation artist,and one level design. We need storyline designers more animation artists graphic makers and coders to make these games come alive so email at Dmoneycashin500s@aol.com if you want to be apart of the next generation of basic games.

I am not very good at programming as I only know the simple functions for Basic and only know how to draw limited things, but I need help with something...

Everytime I make an animation using the Recall Pictures and Store Pictures I have to make the program with a ClrDraw before everyframe so they don't overlap, but I do not want the flashing to be there. The issue is that I do not want to use lines or points because not only do that take a whole bunch load of space but it's a very tedious and frustrating process.

Also I do not know how to program in ASM or even heard of it until yesterday where I read about all of these things about it. If anyone could send me a link to it so I may learn what it is about and how to program in ASM and even the program to add into my Calculator (Ti 84-Silver Edition) That would be great. And also is there any programs in which I can make more pictures for my animations? I would really REALLY appreciate it if I could find a decenet program that could take on quite a bit of pictures into it's files.

And yes I checked the program list and saw that it can make 10 pictures per file and it has 3 files, but I'm still doubtful of that program because I am afraid if it might delete my previous pictures that I have stored into my calculator. Which will suck if that happens.

But yes can you help me so I may get rid of the flashing of my animation without the tedious work of chooshing each line for the program? Is there a patch that can help me out with that?

Does anyone know the TI-86 code in BASIC that lets u control a mouse on the grapics screen with the arrows buttons and also is there a code that lets u "click" the mouse on a button on the screen
e-mail me with the info if u have it
I really need to know this info plz

Yeah I know what you are thinking!!BASIC Sheels are played out but what if I revolutionized basic shells so they could run programs on your calc without knowing what programs are on your calc. Sounds cool right well then here's the basic idea no pun intended. We base it after Mac OS X and we sinply make the code prompt you for what program you want to run and it runs command prgmSTR1 then that program is placed in a decoded list and put on the home screen until deleted. Then whernever homescreen is visited the program is archived and when the person clicks on that icon it unarchives it until homescreen is reached again. And please I am only asking for help from 3-4 programmers/graphic artists thank you.

i need to create a circle that i can move around (BASIC) without it redrawing itself. thanks, you guys have helped out alot already
