TI-83/84 emu for TI-Nspire/CAS - video in action
« on: April 01, 2010, 11:43:15 pm »


This is by Calc84maniac, obviously. He sent me a copy so I can film it yesterday. The ROM image was a regular 83+ one, including a few programs.

Could this be a replacment to the regular Nspire built-in 84+ emu that doesn't support undocumented instructions?

It is me or the emulator runs way too fast compared to a real TI-83/84?

I finally cleared my sig after 4 years you're happy now?

yeah it's cuz he removed speed restriction. He asked me first if he should removed it and I told him to, to show the full emulator potential. Desolate ran much slower, though.

EDIT: QUOTED FROM CALC84 on IRC!

[00:51:55] <calc84> oh, and btw, the TI-83+ emulator was running at 90MHz :)
[00:52:09] <calc84> so it could go even faster at 150MHz

WOW, this looks great.  With all these new NSpire programs coming out I may have to go out and get one.

(also I noticed the video time was 314 :P)

Awesome! I see it supports the 84 keypad too. Will it have save states and all the other goodies one would expect in an emulator?

My 'awesomeness by calc84maniac'-sensor is going nuts again.

Kudos! Let's get rid of this crappy emulator by TI!

Wow, when it gets stable I will have a nice TI-84+SE emulator in my CAS!
Awesome speed. :o

I personally hope it will run TI-Boy SE, RealSound, omnicalc virtual functions, etc. Well I know there's a GBC emu for Nspire alerady but it would still be cool if it ran, as it would show what the emu is capable of compared to TI emu :P

We all do.

I wish you could show some TI-BASIC game in fast paced version. :)

This will be great!

Wait, if this is only at 90mhz, then what's 150? ;D

Calc84, when this is done, will we be able to send files to it through the link port from a 83+?

It would probably have this feature already, except I haven't figured out how to activate the I/O port on the 84+ keypad.

I wonder if with speed restriction enabled the CPU will be clocked way down or if you are just gonna add some delays? I think the former may save a lot on battery life

Nspire really has a problem with batteries.
Battery saving options will be a must for some programs like the calcmaniacs' emulators.
I hope there is a way to the CPU enter a battery saving mode while delaying.

I believe I already do this with gbc4nspire... I am not sure how much effect it actually has on the battery life though.

Does the emulator only support 512K ROMs ?
