so I want to put in a background for my menu, but I don't know how to make one design one or anything. In axe please thanks

sorry to double post, but could you go in depth on the jumping part and what you are doing in the code? thats the part i need, thanks

Yeah what i have is y+v->y and v+a->a and then v is set as a negative. and the pxltests work for whereever you start but, it goes so fast that you can't jump onto a platform

I know I got that, sorry, PLEASE OMNI GODS! SEND AN INTELLIGENT CODER WHO KNOWS PXL-TESTING TO THIS THREAD!!!   (and not saying you guys can't help, but I think we all need one of this people.)

did you get it to work? could copy and paste it into my code example above, so I can see it?

here is an example:

[FFFFFFFFFFFF]->pic1
line(0,63,95,63)    //line at bottom of the screen
45->X
55->Y
-5->V      //velocity, change to adjust height
repeat getkey(15)
if getkey(4) or (pxl-test(X,Y+8)=0  //pressed up or nothing is below you
Y+V->V    //Keep in mind V is a negative, so it is like subtracting from Y, until it gets to zero....
V++      //This will get V to 0 so Y is added to
end
if pxl-test(X,Y+8)=1    //If you hit a line
-5->V   //resets your velocity so you can jump again.
end
pt-change(X,Y,pic1)
pause 50
displaygraph
pt-change(X,Y,pic1)
end


this gives the jump an arch

ok so I have a 84 + also, and I have this same problem.....easy fix. Re-install ti connect and make sure you restart your computer once it is installed. Not a calc or OS problem. Oh and don't ever forget that ti connect will always have trouble, and it's not the best of software. I suggest Tilp if you get too fed up with it OH and welcome to Omni!

Ahh... I see, well the real problem is the jump is pointed at the top, so it's written so when j=15 y adds to itself, so your position just constantly changes....But I need an arched jumped....Which I can do simply by adding one more variable which is acceleration and then changing j to v as velocity. click up. character goes up. velocity hits zero as it gets higher then y's spot 'inverts' (negative to positive) and I come back done. ALL in a curve. I like fancy lol
