Good work. The rotated sprites look good. Next step is commanding a group of units, right? That would be epic.

bwang continues to bring 3D to Nspire. We could make a racing game with the engine.
What are the differences between mode7 and floorcaster (raytracer)?

EDIT: ok, so I just finished getting includes to work, the assembler will now include files with relative paths using these syntax's:#include "file.inc"
#INCLUDE "file.inc"
.include "file.inc"
.INCLUDE "file.inc"any that I forgot?
I'm going to get rid of commented lines next 
SPASM for example also supports: #include file.inc and I used that syntax because I never coded C, C++ or PHP before z80 assembly.

I assume you still have plans to support every possible TI-83+ z80 ASM syntaxes, right?
There is only one syntax for z80 ASM. 68k assembly has more than one, though. Going in depth Zilog originally used all mnemonics in capital letters but recently I don't see any code on capital letters. EDIT: but different assemblers might use different syntaxes. assembler directives can start eitheir with a . or #, for example: .include "file.inc" #include file.inc

Hopefully I will get one more major optimization before the next release because I had a revelation yesterday. I got to thinking, what's the difference between data and subroutines? There isn't any! So I can mix in all the subroutines with the data as if it was data without having to make a 3rd pass which can save a lot of bytes in the executable. The only side effect to this is that if you are defining 2 blocks of data that are split by a command that uses a subroutine, then the 2 pieces of data are no longer consecutive in memory. I doubt anyone will have a problem with this though because its always good practice to define consecutive data together without interruptions and I've never seen anyone do it wrong in their code.
Great work Quigibo. It affects somewhat disassembly but will be rare someone hand optimize Axe Parser. Maybe some curious will like to learn a bit of assembly from Axe Parser like some guys do with C and assembly.

It is nice to see some new stuff for 68k calculators even if with limited use. But hopefully, is really useful for you and maybe you can give us some z80 TI-BASIC in the future. It is true that doing something oncalc is more familiar to some of us, so there is hope other people pick and use it. I liked to hear about the z80 emulator in 68k. Although I know there is Gameboy emulator... Too bad about your calculator link port. I give you a hint if you want assembly programs on it: http://asmtools.omnimaga.org/asmunsquisher/More useful to little programs. See by yourself but in the case of doubt of what it does, ask me. Have fun doing your suite.

People that go through ticalc TI-BASIC small programs should download all this pack instead.
Thinking in it, it is also inspiring for beginners in TI-BASIC to do an homescreen game.

Kerm Martian is animating Cemetech quite well. But Omnimaga looks unstoppable now. It is really a pleasure to contribute to this forums. Sometimes, in certain topics, I would prefer a little bit less spam and offtopic but because the spirit is nice, it is ok. And not forgetting, I do have my moments in offtopic.

I was waiting for this. Bookmarked the url for now but I will try to compile a demo someday. If I tried to make this myself, I would end up doing a post like this. Hopefully someone did first.

-calculator RPG: 4th 3rd
-calculator RPGs: 1st! 1st!
Pals, start using more RPG instead of RPGs. j/k -F-Zero ti-83: 5th 2nd
-F-Zero ti-84: 2nd 5th 
Funny, it exchanged. --- More seriously, I will try to give other ranks with different key words soon. There are some key words I would like to test like: calculator games, calculator development, TI-BASIC, calculator help...

Trading ASCII texts between computer<->calculator. That would be a easy and nice feature. And font compatible with ASCII.

They do, watch the SVN trunk Nice. IMO, we're less bound to such moral considerations now that TI attacked Ndless twice... it would be a pretty powerful retaliation against TI. But yeah, TI would sue the trouble-makers to death.
Seeing what we are getting from TI despite that (lawyers letters, evil downgrade protections, censored facebook comments, disabled facebook accounts...) I would say "let's not care anymore!".
Anyway, they'll keep striking at us, whatever we do.
The downgrade has just one good justification: avoid downgrade to OSes with bugs, especially the shut down one. But if they did for this reason, they wouldn't disable to OSes past that bug. The coincidence of disable on OS versions that Ndless support is not ignorable. Nspire hacking seems much more troublesome situation in legal aspect to involved people than the signing keys to z80 calculators.

Enjoy your stay in the Coders Of Tomorrow and keep the good job, SirCmpwn.

XKCD is popular. This was cited in almost all forums and sometimes more than 1 thread per forum. It is without funny. It is a comic, it should be funny so don't worry too much about technical stuff. Sorry the around 10 MHz, he says around so it is not incorrect and actually not far from the average of 6 and 15MHz. Plus 10 seems a 10x less than the 100 MHz. The resolution, ram, etc. were corrected. This XKCD cartoon got mentioned on the tinspire Google group. By merely posting a link to the news on /., the probable trigger for the XKCD cartoon, mentioning that most commenters on /. missed the point, and later explaining some of the points that had been missed, I eventually triggered a post full of flamebait, cluelessness, disrespect and even slander from someone with tremendous blinders: Nelson Sousa. And you haven't seen his private mails, where he kept top-posting twice after I explained him that it was bad and that avoiding it was a basic netiquette rule...
Full topic at http://groups.google.com.au/group/tinspire/browse_thread/thread/2978472efdd30e01 .
But don't even try wasting your time with the people on the tinspire group: most of them are North-American-minded (copyright, licensing, etc. - instead of encouraging creativity) teachers who hate games, and are happy to stay undisturbed together among like-minded individuals... You aren't going to convince them that their opinions suck.
Relatively interesting read. Shows the other side (opposite of open community). I did not read the entire topic but too bad no one noted that was released a fractal program by Levak and a better TI-84+SE emulator to Nspire so development to Nspire is not game oriented. They see ticalc news and Nelson admits don't visit TI-Bank. Side note: For some reason I thought I would not be comfortable if I met Nelson Sousa.

Do we really have to make sure it's impossible to put the CAS OS on a non-CAS? To me, it sounds like this is the only reason Ndless 2.0 isn't out, and with TI's reaction I think Ndless 2.0 is the perfect response.
Better not let put CAS OS into non-CAS to avoid trouble. I think is ok and I would enjoy to have CAS applications to non-CAS and a TI-84+SE emulator to CAS. There could be other reasons like stability issues, lack of testing...
