Patrick Davidson Does It Again
Posted by Michael on 4 August 2004, 04:54 GMT

[Phoenix for the 85]Our most downloaded author of all time, Patrick Davidson, has updated the Z80 versions of his signature game Phoenix to version 3.0. It's available for the 82, 83, 83+, 86, and everyone's favorite calculator, the 85. This update adds minor interface improvements (such as inverting the gameplay colors), fixes the money dropping algorithm to increase the difficulty, and adds a background to the 82/83/83+ versions, among other things.

Update (05:17): Patrick, when informed on IRC about the news article, emphatically exclaimed: <PatrickD> yes ................ i am very happy ............. yyaaaaaaayyyyyy !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Update: Version 3.1 has now been released. This update fixes a bug in saving games with external levels.

Ok, I have a TI-84 Plus Silver Edition and I want this game. Can anyone give me the details on how I can get it on my calculator? Any help will be appreciated. :)

Do you have Ti Connect and your link running?

I do have both of those, but I can't find any games for the TI-84 only TI-83. I have read on some sites that the TI-83 should work, but all I upload to my 84 are under protected files.

TI-83 Plus versions should be compatible.

It turns out there was a bug in version 3.0 of Phoenix. If you played an external level and saved the game, it wouldn't work properly when you tried to resume it. This bug effects the version for every calculator. I have now released version 3.1 which should fix this problem. It's available now on pad.calc.org and should be on ticalc.org soon.
