EPIC LIE!

Can I enter text in lower case on the TI-83 family, TI-84 Plus family, or TI-Nspire handheld in TI-84 Plus mode?

It is not possible to enter lower case letters directly on the TI-83 family, TI-84 Plus family, or TI-Nspire in TI-84 Plus mode. However, users with a TI-83 Plus family, TI-84 Plus family, or TI-Nspire in TI-84 Plus mode have an option available.

Upper and lower case letters may be entered by using the NoteFolio™ App for the TI-83 Plus and TI-84 Plus Family.

This App will work with the TI Keyboard, however, it is important to note that the TI Keyboard will not enter lower case letters on its own.

Please see the TI-83 family and TI-84 Plus family guidebooks for additional information.

Note: TI-Nspire in TI-84 Plus mode users may refer to the TI-84 Plus family guidebook.

I'm confused xD

Hai, I got addicted to Worms: Reloaded and now I'm going to make worms for the 83+ family. In Axe. With AI. It'll be cool. Thoughts? 'Nuff said.

Okay, since I wanted to do something special for my 1000th post, I decided to write a tutorial on doing platformers. What? Oh, you can't wait? Let's start, then!

The first thing we need, is a tilemap. In this tutorial, I'm using a simple, very awful, but useful tilemap.

Put this in prgmPLATFTLM:
.AXTILEMP
.Map:
[000000000000000000000000→Str1TM
[000000000000000000000000 
[000000000000000000000000
[000206050000000000000000 
[000300040002060500020605 
[000300020605000206000004 
[000300030004000300000004 
[010101010101010101010101 
.Tiles:

[FFAAFF55FFAAFF55→Pic1TL
[0F10204080808080
[8080808080808080
[0101010101010101
[F008040201010101
[FF00000000000000
[0000000000000000
.Now, we can draw the tilemap!
Lbl DMP
.Draw MaP
For(A,0,7
For(B,0,11
If {Str1TL+(A*12)+B}→Θ
Θ -1→Θ
Pt-On(B*8,A*8,Pic1TL+(Θ*8)
End
End
End
Return

If you run this code, you’ll see a not-so-very-bad looking tilemap (uhh, actually nothing, there’s no DispGraph xD).
Now comes the hard part: The collisions. There are 2 ways to do this:
1.   Pixel-based collision
2.   Tile-based collision

The tile-based collision is the hardest. That’s why I’m doing that first.

Put this code in prgmPLATFCOL:
.COLLISSN
Lbl COL
.COLlission
.Inputs: arg1=X ,arg2=Y ,arg3=dX to check,arg4=dY to check (I’ll explain later)
.Since we want it smooth-scrolling, we divide the X and Y value by 8 to get the corresponding tile
{Str1TL+(((Y+r2)/8)*12)+((X+r1)/8)}
Return

Okay, we can get the tile now, but there’s nothing to actually check something for!
We need an character, and we need to let it move right and left (Jumping and falling come later).
Put this in prgmPLATCHAR:
.CHARACTR
[187E243C7E3C5A66]→Pic1CH
Lbl MOV
.MOVe
If getKey(2) and (X≠0)
X-1→X
End
If getKey(3) and(X≠88)
X+1→X
End
Return
Lbl DCH
.Draw CHaracter
Pt-Off(X,Y,Pic1CH)
.You can also use Pt-Mask(), but come on, this is a tutorial!
Return

Now, that’s done, and we want to actually see something, right?
Put this in prgmPLATFRM:
.PLATFORM
0→X
55→Y
Repeat getKey(15)
ClrDraw
Sub(MOV)
Sub(DMP)
Sub(DCH)
DispGraph
End
Return
prgmPLATFTLM
prgmPLATCHAR
See how easy those sub-routines are?

My contest entry is Continuity. Initially, I wanted to create Mario's Cement Factory, but since I finished that in like 2 days, its a bit too tiny.
Without further ado, you can play Continuity here
What do you think?

Hello,

I am having problems with the mimas file converter. If I draw a file over it, it parses, but there is no file created :| Does anyone experience the same thing?

Thanx for help in advance,

aeTIos

Ohai,

I am learning asm at the moment and I hate that you cant use "call iputsprite" but have to use "call $4089" to call iputsprite (in mimas). So I printed the whole DCS include file and i am now typing it in in my calc. It is not finished yet, but I thought this would be useful already. All Ion and MirageOS routines are included, the DCS routines are not. I have also added some useful routines (2 at the moment: Set_15_mHz and Set_6_mHz). I hope this is useful for you!

attached the appvar. You can include it via menu([graph])>1. Libraries ([1])> add ([Y=]) and then select DCS7INC.

EDIT: I thought it was fair to mention that an DCS7 include file was included in the Mimas package too, I made this cuz I thought that it did not work, but it did

Hello omnimagicanoes and trolls and other,

I was working on a secret project and I start working on the same 'unsecreted' project now.

Its called Final Fantasy : Quest for Rana.

Story and prologue:

-- Story --

You are Ryan, one of the Hikarii knights that defend the treasures of Rana. Those treasures give the power to the magical sceptre of the king of Eukaria, King Travan. Of course, there are people who want to rule over the kingdom and want the treasures of Rana...

-- Prologue --

It was a dark night in the kingdom of Eukaria. It was cloudy and you couldn't see the moon. In Rana, the Hikarii knights were guarding the entrance of the shrine where the treasures were kept.

Suddenly...

"AAAAAARC!" one of the guards cried, and he fell dead. The other guard looked around and saw his friend dead on the ground, with an arrow in his head. At that time, he realized that he was looking to the wrong side, and turned to the other side... and faced one of the knights of Lord Copar...

half an hour later.
"ouch... I'm not going to survive this... I'm writing something here in the sand..."

The other day...

Ryan ran to the hill where the shrine with the treasures of Rana was. The guards were not returned, so there was something wrong. He came on the top of the hill and found his mates lying dead. Then he looked in the shrine...

and saw a message in the sand:
"Wer kiled bj lord cpar kight. th stol th treasus o Ra/"  (Yes, that is intended to have much spelling mistakes lol)



Okay, that was it. Any comments/suggestions?

Hello,

So I am working on a secret project (not really anymore, as I'm going to introduce it in the projects section) and I need an AI programmer. Can anyone join?
It is an Action RPG, for those who were going to ask

I hope that someone is joining soon or at least is posting some help here!
