one problem... i can't send a document in goplat's 031 version but i can in the gtk version
maybe because i modified it too much, ill try and fix it

ok made a mistake, its because installed os1.1 onto gtk version and i could send document. however i also tried installing 2.0 onto gtk version when i press connect i notice in the cmd that it says Unknown OS version, hmmm... this also is displayed when i try to install 2.0 and 2.1 onto goplat's version. any help here?

ok i think i got it now, i read the 026 readme and foundout that only 1.7 can transfer the documents

I don't know if you are still having trouble running the emulator (w/ the command line format), but here is a batch file that will run it for you (attached).

Just make sure your .rom file is named nspire.rom and your boot2 is named boot2.img.raw and it is in the same folder as these two files, along with Goplat's latestest version or ncubate (which I would recommend), which should be named "emulator.exe" for usage with this batch file.

Likewise, if you don't want to rename all of these files, just open up the batch file with notepad, and change the names of these respective files to whatever you want them to be!  This can be helpful if you want to run more than one .rom version.

Also, I believe this is a trick that will allow you to send files to OS 2.0 (it takes a little bit of time though):

Make a new 1.7 .rom image
Send the file
Upgrade your OS (Connect, Upgrade OS) to 2.0
Run the file!

This might take a while, espically updating the OS, but if you increase the speed of the emulator, it might make it go faster if you really need to use a file on the newer OS.

I think ncubate is by ExtendeD, not Goplat, actually.

I first found that trick when I wanted to try out Nleash on the emulator.  It works perfectly!

I wish you luck with all of your projects (and screenshots :)), jhgenius01!

I tried your poker game for a short period of time today, and it seems pretty nice, espically since it is in Nspire BASIC.

Great job! :)

Phew! I have exams and i just sat a physics exam, as i will be busy over the next few days, I won't have time to develop my games. I hope to order a ti-84 keypad and USB link today EDIT (8Sep2010): i didnt get it after all but got a faulty unit-to-unit cable replacedand I hope that it will arrive in the next few days otherwise I won't be there to receive the package!!! Next Tuesday I won't be in australia, so just before I leave I will post an exclusive beta release of my upcoming strategy for the nspire, Battle of 16s.

After that I won't be available for at least 17 days.

thank you apcalc, i am still not finished with the hold' em project. i released  a new version, 0.9.1 yesterday, and i hope to make the game much more graphical, like elliot way's hearts, and solitaire, however i will need to learn more advanced programming which i don't know how to yet. I followed the programming tutorials part 1 on ticalc.org but i would like to know how to create graphical games, also i would like to create computer AIs, but that would be complicated, i would appreciate it if someone would help i would put your name in the contributors

ok ive tried it
nice but i still like the FULL version that i hybrid crossed with goplat's because it actually makes the rom file for you through easy steps and also the boot2.img.raw file too. also the version i have allows you to name the files to anything you want. try it!!! it's back on the previous page.

I believe I have a copy of that, but I still find the cmd interface easier because I find myself constantly opening and closing the emulator when I am testing my C programs.  I am too impatient to have to go through the menus every time I start the emulator.  I do find that I use that to make a new .rom file, though, as I don't have to do that too often. ;)

Aah ok.

Just one thing, though, it is recommended to avoid double-posting with extremly short amount of time between posts. Your last two posts are fine, but the http://ourl.ca/6943/115099 one might have been a bit too early
