TI-Chess v4.00 released
Posted by Niklas on 11 November 2002, 16:31 GMT

TICT have released TI-Chess v4.00 for the TI-89, TI-92+ and V200. The most important improvements are:

  • Multilanguage support (english/french/german/spanish).
  • Opening book support: now the engine can randomly choose openings from a book if wanted.
  • Training feature rewritten: now chess puzzles may come with an intregrated solution.
  • Chess puzzle compiler completely rewritten: making own chess puzzles files is much easier now.
  • Opening book compiler added: you can make your own opening books if wanted.

The first volume of TI-Chess puzzles has also been released (TI-89, TI-92+, V200) and if that's not enough, you can also get 2014 opening lines (TI-89, TI-92+, V200).

TICT keeps updating their other programs, too: there is a new version of the TICT-Explorer, also for the TI-89, TI-92+ and V200.

thats PHPBB, he didn't do that, my god, he would be rich if he could do all that! That is an amazing forum system, but you find it on lots sites, most adapt it in some way, like Greenlights.tk also runs it, and Spymac.com has really adapted it, but I think it is just PHPBB underneath theirs.

Psst--lord_nightrose! You DID do it! *wink* *wink*

LMAO--a comment way back finally became funny to me--what if our parents actually called us by our "weird" screen names? Like lord_nightrose, no_one_2000_, or chickendude? Wouldn't that be so weird?

Cussing is leading to the downfall of the English language. People don't even know what the words mean anymore. They use them as meaningless filler. I've made an attempt over the past two weeks to stop altogether, and my vocabulary has exploded. I'm remembering words I had been replacing with cuss words, and I feel like a more intelligent person for doing so. Try it, you'll like it.

Scary, if my parents started calling me no_one_2000_:

1) I'd be worried that they learned a little too much about computers
2) I need to delete my history list more often
3) I'd change my screen name
4) I'd run away
5) I'd call them m34n h4xx0r5

I created an applescript on my moms iMac, so that it would delete the history and the cache, and anything that could leave a trail off the computer when I quit IE. I would also copy a file till the drive filled up, and delete all the copies, it would do that 5times, So I didn't have to reformat to completely destroy the evidence. I was a little paranoid when I wrote it.

It would be a pleasent change from being called ....head Oops can't right that here wouldn't be proper.

Actually most people do seem to call me by my brothers name, including my father. Well they used to, when I still lived in that part of the world.

The only reason I told Kerm to stop winking & smiling was b/c he did it all the time. The occasional wink is fine. Calm down. No more weed for you.

BTW, I'm thinking of porting the classic game 'Ganja Farmer' to Ti -- people on this site might think it a bit racist though as you gun down the American Army, trying to destroy your humble field... if you've never seen the game, download it (punch ganja.farmer into HotBot- see the first result).
