I'd like to just say also that I absolutely don't find this as hostile : for this I reused part of a library I'm writing to deal with screen and pixels
Like ... nSDL ?
My library handles cross-compatibility, so you can use the same *.tns file for both CX and non-CX calcs 
Like ... nSDL ?
If this is indeed a languauge difference in interpretation, then... we can't do much about it. Also, as Levak said about his signature on TI-Planet, it sums up his mind. Might not be an excuse, but it's his way of talking/teaching, and it can have advantages and drawbacks, but "harsh" sentences when teaching never killed anyone.... (believe me, I've lived with him or 2 months  ) Also, Levak : May I shave myself then ? wat ? Even in french it doesn't mean anything (à la limite, "jpeux aller me brosser ... ?" )

Other than the new anti-cheating and boot2 are there any new features that you know of or could disclose? There are new and changed things obviously (it's been quite a while since 3.2.0 ) but it's not to be disclosed, sorry  We'll be newsing about it as soon as we are allowed to anyway

I was wondering if for some textures, you could actually generate some programmatically (especially for geometric ones), maybe it would take less size ?

And for those who wouldn't get the first prize, TI-Planet is also organizing another big contest starting very soon It's not even a competition with Cemetech's one, it's actually more chances to win things

I haven't had the chance to say congratz, it looks awesome  I wonder if other well-known libs are going to be updated too for the 84C.... Oh well, as long as the best ones do

Well Adriweb the 2nd part of your sentence was misworded, then. It seems to imply that every single post ever made by Streetwalker on Omni since he joined are useless and have nothing of value. You should probably have said:
In short, I find your post quite useless and in it it look like you are simply be copying other people's ideas without any added value ...
Sure, if it is an English problem, case closed then. As for the sarcasm I did notice it. Hence why I didn't complain about the sentences involved. My previous post also state that I did notice sarcasm in certain of your sentences. Right, just wanted to make sure. As for the anypony thing I agree that there are some people here who are a bit obsessed with My Little Pony and brings it up at places where it is unnecessary, but I think at this point you should maybe lay out from Streetwalker, because it made me skeptical about the veracity of the following statement:
My post did not depend on the author of the post I was criticizing
Else you would have criticised pimathbrainiac, Sorunome, Augs and Blue_bear_94 many times before too. As you can see, I added my remark about that later, as an edit, I obviously wasn't going to make a new post about that. And again, I complained about the rest, not the MLP thing : it's not related to my criticism (it only added more feeling of lack of maturity to what Streetwalker said when talking about freedom of speech just a few words before), if it were, I would indeed have publicly criticized other people. (BTW, my opinion has pretty much as much value as its opposite, probably, but I think that when strangers come to Omni for whatever reason, via Google or else, and see some MLP things in the middle of a somewhat serious discussion about calc programming , it might be quite ... "surprising". Regarding free speech, free speech doesn't exist on any calculator forum because they are not ran by government. Each admin run the site as they see fit. (...) Sure, I was just quoting the term. But still, I don't know if stuff like that applies to only certain things or are to be considerd widely global (because you still can't do things that are against the law) However, there is still a certain form of freedom. For example politely reprimanding someone with the truth (which can hurt, yes) is allowed, but outright libel and harrassment are not. Well... you and I both know you don't have to remind us of that, having been in much worse situations before in the TI community ... Also I think it's wrong to dislike someone only because he dislikes TI. I know that you are affiliated with TI, but if someone bashes TI here it doesn't necessarily make them better or worse persons. Again, this has nothing to do with his opinion about TI and judging if he's a good or bad person : I believe I explained why for me his specific post was "useless" (my thought, again), because seriously, "Plus TI are lazy guys since they reused the whole CAS engine from the 68k series." didn't really look like a joke to me and can you even try to actually defend this statement ... ? If you were the target of such a sentence, you would seriously despise its author because they probably have no clue of what's hapening in reality, and it's more this that bothers me : people stating direct and false things, let's actually say libel. This brings me to something else but related : I'm somewhat close to TI indeed ("affiliated" might be a strong word, it depends on what level and with who specifically), and so aare other members here, but this is *why* I am probably able to better say whether what people say about something is true or not. And it's the same concerning what I think about them : because I know more about TI's vision/beliefs than the average community member, I can see some stuff with a further/different pov and this can also lead to more positive criticism on my part about them as much as negative ones ! ----------- Anyway, for the sake of keeping the topic clean, couldn't we split it ? As said, I don't really like off-topic things

DJ_O : There's a big difference between : question Streetwalker's posting quality and treat him like if he was a n00b who contributes nothing to the community and In short, I find your post quite useless and it look like you are simply be copying other people's ideas without any added value ... Not only did I say "post" and not "posts" since I was only refering to one post of his and not in general, and like him, I guess I have the right to express my opinion (about his, there.) ? And I even threw some sarcasm about recreating accounts. if we can't joke anymore on Omni then it will get boring fastI couldn't see any sarcasm in this one. He has contributed quite a bit in the past here, even if his signal-to-noise ratio isn't among the best (he did troll or flood before, but that is nothing compared to certain other members when they originally joined the forums) Well, sometimes, the truth can hurt. But after all, it was nothing more than my thought about this specific post. i wasn't even talking about any of his other posts. My post did not depend on the author of the post I was criticizing, it could have been anyone. Anyway, let's not spend any more seconds on this, it's a waste of time (that we don't have enough for creating useful things...)... And I don't like bumping threads with non-topic things........ EDIT about next post by Streewalker : "I do agree with you DJ. Freedom of speech is pretty important to me and I hate when it's taken away from anypony." This is the kind of things that irritate me. For me, this is just a sign of not being mature. Mixing a "freedom of speech" importance sentence with an "anypony" at the end. Seriously. I don't even find a smiley for this.

But that doesn't make the things less true...
BTW I edited the "CAS" parts a bit to explain

Also Linux is about 20% more awesome than the Nspire and it's totally free.  They don't have the same goals at all, so you can't compare. Plus TI are lazy guys since they reused the whole CAS engine from the 68k series. I'm sorry, but I see you are using your Omnimaga account over and over again to post messages. Shouldn't you be creating a new one for each post ? What a lazy behaviour. Being a little more serious, let me remind you that TI bought the original CAS engine company ("Derive" IIRC) and started making it evolve over time, using it on the 68k then the Nspires. Obviously they were not going to reinvent the wheel, that'd just be stupid. Something we can be annoyed by, however, is the presence of some bugs that weren't there before (but at least there are also some new features too) So you effectively only pay for crap HW and lockdowns. But as far as I can see you own some TI calcs (and even an Nspire). If you dislike the HW and SW as you say, you should donate it to people who actually need to use the calc for what it can provide. In short, I find your post quite useless and it looks like you are simply copying other people's ideas without any added value ... Now, to be more on-topic : 3.6 needs to have 3.2.4 first, as said, probably for the boot2 upgrade (which can still be prevented by tnoc, but then who knows how 3.6 will react), and well, in fact TI has a public page hosting 3.2.4, even though no other pages link to it, TI-Cares can give you the link (it's actually not very difficult to guess, they had already used this kind of url before). It's probably not useful at all anyway, since we (TI-Planet) have already done the testings (tnoc, boot2 extraction + log...)

BTW, 3.2.4 is quite "nothing" for an update.
The actual real next step is this september's 3.6 OS. (And still, from what I've seen some things change and some don't.... So don't expect too much in minor versions.)

I'm not sure to understand your reaction....
What else did you expect from TI ?
To grow up and have seperate builds for Exams only and builds for Users only.
Right. This is such a small change, it's not even the minor version that changes, but the revision (3.2. 4). If they ever do that, it's going to be in another major. But I doubt it, even if we proposed that solution officially some time ago....

(Except the fact that this anti-downgrade protection "surprised" us by coming on a "rare" 3.2.4 and not on 3.6 as expected, granted.)
I guess the purpose of these news is to warn people that they should not update to this 3.2.4 OS if it gets available.
However, for those who already have it and tried to downgrade, and then got stuck without a OS, we've asked TI to give the OS (since it's the only installable version) so that they can at least get out of this issue.

You select the item to craft via the built-in menu, but for some reasons the menu won't open on OS 3.1... I'll have to do some research to solve this...
I don't remember any changes in the toolpalette API from 3.1 to 3.2
Well, now (3.2), you can enable/disable elements on-the-fly, or something like that. Anyway, good job, it really looks awesome. I suggest you to compress your sprites using Jim's tool (load the string, alpha-ize it if needed, save it again), if it's not already done Also, same question as Levak : what's the size of the .tns ?

Yes, but not with that many people TI-Planet is getting quite a lot of visits these times because of the exams soon, maybe here too ?
