thanks! well calc84 helped me fix the problem! here is v1.09b!

yeah it was what I used with HUNT, although the batch file is a little different, this one makes it easier to assemble any file you want, with HUNT it's specific to the file.

calc84, yeah I just noticed that, here replace the batch file with this:

@echo off & setLocal EnableDELAYedExpansion

set N=
for /f "tokens=* delims= " %%a in ('dir/b *.asm *.z80') do (
set /a N+=1
set v!N!=%%a
echo !N! %%a
)
echo.
set /p F=Assemble file:
set /p S=Assemble to:
set s=%S%.8xp
call spasm.exe !v%F%! %S%
pause

here is a little package I made to make assembly easier
it includes Spasm2, ti83Plus.inc, and a bat file to make assembling easier.
tell me what you think

It generates a number that is 0=<a<=b, so yeah, what calc said.
Ztrumpet, Thanks! I'll try to get the randomly generated background working today.

Wait what? I wasn't trying to be narrow minded. You were being humerious when you said your were too lazy to do it yourself, and I was just playing along. I'm sorry if you saw it that way. 

Lol, ok, that may take a little while though, I'm working on backgrounds. Also, it doesn't take that long to make the edit and compile it  30 seconds tops

thanks I don't actually like them, and I would rather have better ones
lol, just wait until you see my horribly structured/unoptimized code
it was kind of hard to figure out how to get the sprites working, then it was pretty simple, all I had to do was just multiply the location pointer by 8 on each of them, and it worked

EDIT: here is a small update
