Nevermind, just zoomed it in a bit, focused well.  And man, this is FREAKING AMAZING.   I love this emulator.  I set frameskip to 0 for best fps, it is VERY nice now.  

But, I must know, how likely is it to permemnantly "brick up" my calculator?

Dang.  So that means the screenies and animated screenies were faked?  They played alright.

So are there any non-rpg games like calcwars for the 83+?

Also, is there a utility I can use to stealth my calculator to prevent being busted by teachers?  I am in desperate need.

Joltima is by far the best TI-83+ calculator RPG from before 2004 in terms of graphics and lenght.

Dying eyes has magic spells,  but poor graphics in dungeons and the difficulty is ridiculously hard. Another classic, though.

There is also The Verdante Forest if you don't mind the bugs.

Joltima is ok I guess.  It just needs a story.  I don't even get why it is an rpg.  You start the game to somebody saying, "go find a bunch of magical objects."  And you spend the rest of the game doing this.  

Dying eyes, in my opinion, was the best game I ever played for the calculator.  Desolate second, and Reuben Quest third.  I might have put reuben 2nd, but the translations weren't great.  I thought the difficulty was just right.   For tvf I tried playing the second game which encompasses the first, and It was crazy buggy.  I couldn't win a single fight.  My attacks missed or hit armor 100 percent of the time.  Nice Game Maxcoderz!

I can code already, although I focus on the computer.  I am currently working on a zombie survival game, 3d and all.  But I don't know when I'll be done.  Soon hopefully, but you never now;  I have a ton of work, and hardly have time to code at all.  I'm a new coder also.

So is ticalc really the best site for games?  A lot of the stuff there is very bad.  Are there any other big calculator game sites?

Okay, I will try illusiat 11.  Are there any websites that have good calculator rpgs besides cemetech, ticalc, and omnimaga?

What are some good calculator rpgs to play?  I've already gone through the popular ones, dying eyes, desolate, etc.

Also, when I play swordmaster: the warrior it says err: archived although I have everything I need in ram.

Edit: I would prefer if they had graphics.

I use alcdfix from tiwizard.  I know the glitch in mario only happens sometimes when I start the game again just after it exited because I ran out of lives.  From now on I will probably exit crunchy os and turn off the calc every time I die and the game exits.  And then I will run the game again.  Just to be safe.
The screen also turned pitch black, not royal blue.

Also, will removing batteries while the calculator is running (to fix a crash) damage my calculator?

That's awesome, my ram clears all the time, I don't mind.  I eat that stuff up.
But something weird happened today where my screen turned black (not because of brightness) and battery removal didn't work, neither did del + insert battery.  It worked after a few battery removals though (it had me pretty damn nervous).  In this case would reinstall os work since I can't see the screen (and calc won't respond)?

I think it might have had something to do with the mode (clears screen, pauses game) key on mario 1.2

what about this game fftom 2, will it break my calc?  http://www.ticalc.org/archives/files/fileinfo/272/27285.html
