Now, I would first like to explain that I am only a novice at calculator programming, and that I'm not even entirely positive that I posted this in the right place, but I'm doing so anyways because I haven't been able to find much help elsewhere across the desolate expanses of the internet.
I was hoping to get into calculator game design, and naturally, sought out the classics to see what secrets I could glean...
and Lo and Behold! Within the ticalc.org archives (which doesn't have a forum so I couldn't ask for help there) I found "Illusiat Complete RPG Series" from Kevin Oulett. I downloaded it onto my TI-84 Plus, placing the I2004EXE and IZ2 files within my RAM, and all others into my Archive, as specified by the readme. And then... when I ran I2004EXE as directed...
Error: Archived
I would be ecstatic if someone could give me a bit of a jumping off point as to getting this to run. I know that Illusiat is somewhat legendary when it comes to calculator games, and I can't wait to analyze it.
Thank you!
(P.S. sorry for so many line breaks)

I hate to direct you other places, but the guy who wrote that (Who goes by the name DJ Omnimaga) is not active here. He is active over at https://codewalr.us/
He should be able to help you there.

It seems like it got sent to archive not ram.
If you go into the memory management screen (2ND + '+') and then select Memory management, All then find I2004EXE and make sure it does not have a '*' next to it. If it does hit enter and that will unarchive it so you can run it.

You can also download a shell like DoorsCE in order to be able to launch archived programs right from homescreen as well as use a mouse based graphical ui ;)

Thank you very much for the help! Since all the files involved do not fit in ram, I'll download Doors CE. If I am still unable to run the program, I'll inquire further on codewalr.us
