First 84+CSE game come out!

We'll have to develop TI-Basic programs on emulators...
Hm sorry, I forgot it was forbidden now!

We can create an editor for the PC.

A good alternative will be Doors CS8 instant-goto feature, but might be better if ALPHA scrolling behavior is also modified so that it scrolls all 7 lines instantly instead of line by line.

[Sorunome]

ALPHA scrolling was always a page, so it must be 9 lines with the bigger LCD, right?

[DJ Omnimaga]

I wouldn't be surprised if it was. The problem is that when it scrolls, it does it gradually, meaning that the screen has to be almost entirely updated 9 times in the process. The best solution would be an hook-based feature that removes that gradual scrolling entirely.

[Sorunome]

Yeah, we probably need some awesome flash apps that mod the os enough or install hooks to increase speed.....

Hi,

Made a speed test for Disp and Output instructions.

How is the TI-83 Plus.Fr managing to get Disp speed almost as fast as a TI-84 Plus in classic mode??

[critor]

Because 2.53/55MP classic mode was allready slower than 2.43 ?

Let's make another test with 5 calculators together

[Sorunome]

Isn't it hard to press the buttons on the calcs at the same time?

Not if you have 3 hands.

Don't the 83 Plus.Fr in this vid come with OS 1.19? It's the blue design that was actually a real TI-83 Plus rather than a TI-84 Plus.  (Unless you swapped the cases?)



If I recall correctly, if MathPrint mode is disabled, the calc gets as fast as OS 2.43.

Could you try with a regular 83 Plus from United States? (The one with English keypad) I am curious about this whole fast Disp on original 83 Plus.Fr thing.
