I don't intend Doors CS to be fun. :Dbiggrin.gif It's a shell, not a game, y'know. I hope you'll be swayed by some of the cool programs that are going to be coming out soon for it.

I thought DoorsCS was fun....

I understand what Halifax means though and I kind of agree.  DoorsCS is still cool, and I guess part of whether or not one likes it is just personal preference.

I never said it was intended to be fun. But its like DoorsCS is a lamborghini that is all shiny and crap but then you get in it expecting to fly and it breaks down and that sucks. MOS or Ion w/e is like that dirty car with 100,000 miles but runs great and you go riding by the guy with the lamborghini.

My point is DoorCS is full of show no backup. Its a GUI with little functionality and over complicates easy tasks.

Also I can see why _3fg thinks you are spamming the forums. You have ~100 posts half of which belong to topics started by you!

Do you have to spam every site with this? Anyone who cares about this shell is probably a Cemetech regular and will see the news when they visit your site. Since you submitted your own work to digg, I have buried it and hope that your "minions" stop burying CalcUser's statement simply because they don't want the truth to be known.

Congrats. I agree with _3fg though. I am not against you or the program. I think the GUI is cool and it took lots of work. But if I may state for myself the FAT engine took lots of work, but it never really cultivated the fun out of me that Zelda so greatly requested. FAT games are like wow this is cool but gameplay is blahh. But then there is something like Space Station Pheta or Pegz that rapes your soul of fun. DoorsCS just doesn't do that for me. The GUI seems to over complicate things and make things less efficient compared to MirageOS. Oh well still a great achievment. The icon is staying in my signature though.

@all of you who will bring up MOS crashing: Just don't do it. It has been said before and it has been argued before. No one has sent proof so its pretty much null and void that it crashed. MOS 1.2 never crashed on me after countless tries to do everything in my will power to get it to crash.  

 If you want it to crash, try running Harvest Moon on it, as long as you don't use an 83+BE. ;)wink.gif For me, it crashed approximately every 8 seconds.

Anyway, great job kerm! Now that you've finished DCS6, can you work on gCn? *Delnar_Ersike

Lemme drop some ASM knowledge: the worst you can get through LCD manipulation is a distorted image. :)smile.gif DCS also manipulated the LCD down to the tstate; in fact, every shell and program with a fastcopy routine does...

Obviously you have not read the Harvest Moon source nor talked to Spencer at all, so you don't really know what your saying. Read the source and talk to Spencer and then you will know that it can not possibly be ran on anything other than the 83+BE. That isn't any asm knowledge. Please don't talk down to someone who is already well spoken and versed on this topic.

Remember that this is still an early release, and is only compatible with the 83+ non-silver.

I half agree with 3fg, as I don't think it is too much spam to post it on every forum (well, look at StarCalc, I did the same), but I think there is a bit too much emphasis on how it is good. I have nothing against the program or against you, but I have something against the way you present it.

"Ultimate calculator shell" did he say at sub-title. I would rather put it to Mirage

"Tired of slowly searching through your program list? Organize your programs and files into nestable folders, then scroll quickly to the program you want." Nestable, ok, but we could do all that in Mirage.

"Forget complicated menus and obscure keyboard shortcuts; instead use an intuitive mouse cursor to move and click on onscreen items." It's almost easier to use Mirage, since the screen resolution is more made for scrolling lists.

"Doors CS 6, your way: customize everything from your mouse speed and cursor to your desktop background" Where are you most often on a calc? in the program shell, in the TI-OS or playing games?

Otherwise, good job!  :bow:worship.gif

I mostly agree with Fallen Ghost.  It's overall a good shell.  But some people might like the extra stuff such as the background because they've never seen anything like that before, and it's so much like an actual computer (which would apply to practically everybody at my school), while other people might think the extra stuff is just a waste of space, and it isn't necessary on a calculator (which seems to apply to some people in the TI community)..

But good work, it's overall a great shell (in my opinion, and I have a TI-84+ SE with a lot of Flash ROM, which might make me not mind as much that is takes up two app pages).

When DCS replaces CruncyOS, xLIB, Krolypto, Omnicalc, and has something that works better than getCalc() in BASIC program, it'll be worth the two pages.

Well, for those people that don't want teh extra features due to space limitations, then DoorCS is not their choice. But maybe, Kerm can make DoorsCS Lite?

*Halifax is with Fallen Ghost. I was searching for the words to explain it and you did it for me.

Oh and please, stop putting it in the news section.  

I put it in the news section, thank you very much, he had it in the calc projects section, I moved it to the news section because there has not been that much news stuff for Omnimaga lately.
