The Quest III - Chapter 1 v1.1 ported to the TI-86
Posted on 22 November 1998, 23:35 GMT

[Quest III - Chapter 1 Screenshot]
Kirk Meyer has ported The Quest III - Chapter 1 v1.1 to the TI-86, a game originally by Mikel Blanchard of Macross Software for the TI-85 (Usgard). Kirk did most of the work on this game before he decided to resign from TI calculator programming. There are a few differences between the TI-85 and TI-86 versions, check the documentation file included for more information.

Kirk Meyer has also released Cymbol Mathematical Platform v0.3 for the TI-86. This is just a minor update over version 0.2.

Finally! Great job Kirk! I hope there is a Chapter 2 made soon (and ported to the 86).

Kirk stopped his programming career (on the calc, at least). I know ... very disappointing.

Chapter 2 is under developement, but has taken a backseat to Zelda. The Chapter 2 engine is being used for Zelda, so when one is complee, the other will soon follow. I am not finishing up chapter 2 now, beuase I do not want to loose interest. Zelda will be worth the wait ;)

Go here to see Zelda:

It looks like that Zelda pick was stolen from Zelda89 and a few adjustments made to it. tsk tsk, stealing other people's games.

Zelda ?

Any idea when and if Zelda is coming out for TI-85. The screenshot looked like Link's Awakening from GB version

It will be coming out sometime early 99. Hopefully, and I do mean hopefully, there will be some sort of a beta in the year 1998. There are like 6 guys working on this, so when I get a certain something the outlook is good :)

Found a bug. I went into a castle, this soldier guy said something like the king is dead, then he said a lot of other things I could read because the text was all scrambled.

There is a glitch when you talk to the soldier once you wake up in the castle. He recites almost every line said so far in the game back to you.

I have found 3 bugs so far in this version of the game. Hopefully we can get these fixed up and released as v1.2 shortly. See the Macross Software page for future updates.

Why was the other news deleted? It was by this guy and looked legit.

It was deleted because it was discovered that the screenshot appeared to be a copy of someone else's.

I just wanted to say that the person that made this game did a great job, and also, Kirk did an excellent job of porting it.

For the past week, I have been searching for the perfect RPG and I'm pretty sure I have found what I was looking for.

To get the key to the mine...
give the flute back to the little boy...
there is a secret room in the castle...
find it =)
it will give you a scroll that tells how to get the flute =)
