Great tutorial! I'm finally being able to work with asm. Still I wonder: does the program we get work on a TI-84+?
I'm waiting for someone to do a calc Farmville. Maybe one day I'll do it!

It probably should.  I've tried running a few programs on my TI-84+ Silver Edition, and they work fine.

Welcome to Omnimaga, btw!
My website: Currently boring.

Projects:
Axe Interpreter
   > Core: Done
   > Memory: Need write code to add constants.
   > Graphics: Rewritten.  Needs to integrate sprites with constants.
   > IO: GetKey done.  Need to add mostly homescreen IO stuff.
Croquette:
   > Stomping bugs
   > Internet version: On hold until I can make my website less boring/broken.

Be sure that you set your 84+ to classic mode if you have OS 2.53.  Other than that, most Ti-83+ programs run on a Ti-84+.  There are very few exceptions, and I don't think any of the lessons have exceptions.

Michael, thanks for your welcoming! I have been here for a while but I had never posted anything...

Hot_Dog, I do have the new OS so thank you... still, this was the first time I was actually capable of compiling any code. The closest I got was to a program that didn't work and screwed my TI... all solved by now. It is fascinating how this little device that we take for granted, we input the numbers and it gives us the answer, but it has so many things in the middle... I thousand thank yous to you hot_dog it is really a great set of lessons.

Incidentally, can we transform this cool ASM programs into calc apps?

True, some people outside the calc world are astonished what can be done on those calcs sometimes. :D

Even we calc developers are! And what about the apps thing?

Appendix A gives you all the details for doing just that.  For the purposes of the example programs in the lessons, you only need single-page applications.

just finished all the lessons, I'm starting on Appendix C now.  ;)  thanks Hot_Dog!  what would you recommend as a first ASM project that I can do just based on the stuff in you lessons plus some help on Omni?

i need help. in lesson 8 (the colors program), is the program continuous or does it require a new notepad file if it doesnt say "continued on next page"?

You're welcome! ;D

Well, there's many, many things you could with just the stuff the lessons provides.  But as a first, I'd say either a memory game, tic-tac-toe, or Battleship.  Battleship is just as easy to create as the previous two, but it is a longer project.

If you're feeling really lucky, try a shooting game that uses no-smooth scrolling, something like Ti-83+ Quake but with 2d graphics.  http://www.ticalc.org/archives/files/fileinfo/118/11880.html Using the sprite routine from Appendix B, it's not too difficult to create a non-smooth scrolling tilemapper.  If this is a game you want to try and make, I can give you some pointers such as a "to-do" list.

Okay, I see where you're talking about.  I meant to write "continued on next page."  But usually, if you see several red boxes in succession, and if only one of those red boxes has .org 40339 or .org $9D93, the program is continuous.  Does that make sense?

And I forgot to mention that there's some stuff in Appendix A that requires knowledge of previous ASM topics
