TI-83+/84+ OS glitches compilation thread (all OSes)

[DJ Omnimaga]

Ah ok. I was worried in case of conflicts that could occur.

The 1.19 fix is on the way. I've been having some troubles, (I killed about 20 wabbitemus.) But it's coming. It would have been done if it weren't for the fact that the flash paging ports of the 83+ don't AND the value of a flash page that doesn't exist. For instance, on the 84+ BE if you tell it to go to page $7D, it really goes to $7D & $3F = $3D. But on the 83+, if you tell it to go to $7D, it goes to like $02, which will not work.

That's a little strange, but good luck on it.   TIA.

hmm, my TI-84+ with OS 1.15 (yes, I used one of Brandon's programs to do so..) had the err: version

but I went to 1.19 and it was all better

[DJ Omnimaga]

TIA.

Here, do you mean "thanks in advance" or "tits in action"?

I got ERR:VERSION on 1.18 personally, when grouping stuff, but MUCH less often than with OS 1.12 through 1.14. I never ever tried OS 1.15 through 1.17. I don't know if I ever got a version error on OS 1.19

That was way harder than necessary. I guess my inexperience with 1.19 is partially to blame. 1. The Mode+Alpha+S screen doesn't reenable the text drawing flag. Which meant it was just a blank screen which scared me. And 2. My OS checksum fixing code had a fault that allowed it to work on an 84 but not an 83.

But here it is. This will fix that 1/16384 chance that your program won't open.

[DJ Omnimaga]

Nice! Glad you managed to get it to work. Also i think I got the blank MODE screen on the TI-84+ before but I forgot which ASM/Axe program I ran.

Another thing I wonder is if it's possible to fix the bug mentionned in http://tibasicdev.wikidot.com/text in an OS patch?

[thepenguin77]

What bug is that? I didn't see any specific error listed. Aside from the eraseBelow flag being set and reset sometimes.

[DJ Omnimaga]

The flag being set and not reset when exiting the MODE screen is the bug. It did not happen on the 83+ and 83+SE. On the 84+ it causes some games like Contra to not work properly sometimes.

On OS 1.12 I had this bug happen once but I never noticed how I created it.

Yay!  Thanks!

Um, randInt(1,2)

YES THANK YOU!

Well in OS 2.43 or lower, G-T fixes it actually. It's just kinda annoying.

I've gotten it twice on 1.19, so TI definitely did not fix it.

[qazz42]

orly? thats strange..

damnit, on another note, it seems that a TI-83+ OS does not like being in a TI-84+SE

[Deep Toaster]

\damnit, on another note, it seems that a TI-83+ OS does not like being in a TI-84+SE

Hmm, why would that be?

And anyway, is the 1.19 fix for the ERR:BAD ADDRESS bug?
