Well, to be honest, I like the knight so much, that I might just use one on both sides of the title screen. So... I'll take any piece, but it has to be cooler than the knight.

Looks good, we'll have to see what it looks like after grayscale.
On a side note. King me
Edit:
And a knight.

It can be simpler, but these things are huge. So either make it look real, or make it clipart style.
Ok, simpler, this is impossible to make pictures this small.
Edit2:
Here's what the photopshop one looks like. The bar has been set low this time.

Meh, I deleted the post because I'm stupid, here's the picture I had.
Notice the size

I need some chess sprites in 3 color gray for my title screen. I meant to add these a long time ago, but I never got around to it.
For the actual pictures, they need to be about 25x50 (if you've ever played my chess game, they need to fit on the sides) and they need to be in the colors, dark gray, light gray, and white, with a black background.
You can make whatever piece you want as long as it's not a pawn, and preferably it should be the white piece. I'll need two different pieces.
Also, if it means anything to you, I hope for this program to become quite popular. (TI-Chess is in the toplists on ticalc.org, so since this is roughly equivalent on the 84+ scene, we should expect a similar result.)
Edit:
I am working on adding them myself, but I suck. I am not artistic at all.

Another problem that is not a bug: in a basic program with Input, we can do 2nd Quit and the temporary program stays in RAM.
That sounds fixable. But what would be cool would be damn! I forgot my feature request! :O
Just remembered! It's about the editing when archieved.
It works fine and all if you move the curser to the program and then hit enter, but if I press e.g. 8 it gives me error: archieved.
I know about that, but that is a mega pain to do. It also has the potential to make you end up opening the wrong program  I'm not sure if this is related to zStart either, but whenever the calc garbageCollects the calc starts screwing up...I've gotten "ERR:?" twice now and it likes to deposit junk tokens on the homescreen.
That's not related to zStart, but try this. I wouldn't doubt that you are very close to having a non-booting calculator. (thepenguin will have a lot of posts to check  )
Another one
Feature request:
-Instead of having one app/program set on start-up, I'd like to be able to set several ones, in a particular order. That would also mean that you would have to change the way of setting them :-/
I've thought about that, it wouldn't be very difficult to do that by setting a program in that position that runs all the other programs. I might make one of those sometime. -Instead of being able to only set 10 programs/apps with ON+[one digit number], I think that would be great if we could have several digits available, digits that we input while the ON key is pressed Ok, but this one wouldn't be easy. It would require major rewrites of anything that involves the appvar, which is like 50% of the app. Then, I would have to completely change how the ON hooks work. I can tell you with certainty that this will not happen. But, do you actually use all 9 shortcuts? I just got another idea: maybe make it somehow possible to insert any hook and it is restored when ram is cleared. I don't know if that is possible..........
In principle that's not hard, it's just the whole UI that would go along with it would be messy. Not to mention it takes up variable space in the appvar.

For future reference, if you get an error that makes absolutely no sense at all, like Err:?, something crashed. You won't get a Goto of course because this error was not even supposed to be there. You got a random error screen instead of a Ram Clear. If you get one of these, your best bet is to archive everything and clear ram, because most likely a ram clear is imminent.
Also, it wouldn't surprise me if DCS was screwing up with the Stop token, zStart used to do it so I fixed it. Kerm might have just overlooked something.

I bet you weren't expecting an update here.
I now make the program look at all available moves instead of the best four. (It still only picks moves that are within 75% of the best move though) Also, the AI now also takes into account the number of moves available before and after its current move.
What does this mean? Opening moves don't suck and it actually puts in into some annoying situations. I've only played one game against it, and for a while, I was losing. Granted I'm tired, but still, it's definitely better.
Lastly, in the process of all this, I found the glitch that made the white opponent suck, it will now play exactly like black.
Edit:
I need to play with my math a little bit, this version favors the queen too much.

I'm not sure if it's zStart-related or not, but I'm getting screen glitches on an 84pbe w/2.43. EWven games that normally don't shift around weirdly* are doing it sometimes, such as TinycarZ, Acelgoyobis, Phantom Star, and some others...(the hour-long periods at school are horrible for trying to develop x_x)
Running zStart fixes the problem. Teh only apps I have installed are zStart, Axe and Mirage, and that hasn't changed for months but it only started happening recently (maybe since updating to .004? idk).
*shifting, like, one column at a time, not big chunks of the screen like "normal". It looks something like a wave effect..
Good find, ONSCRPT isn't working properly, I'll have to figure out what I broke. To recreate your glitch, pull a battery at the homescreen, then run a game like mario and watch the screen mess up. For now, the simple fix is just to press ON + CLEAR if you have problems.

Well, for asm I use the basic windows 7 notepad Then I use visual studio for C++ and Eclipse for android java.

We finally figure out the fraction glitch. What happens is a side effect in the universal flash unlock ends up modifying the OS. So what I've done is make a mod to the OS so that even when the flash unlock tries to change it, it will end up having no effect.
In short, run this on OS 2.55 and you won't have to worry about the fraction glitch any more.
Edit:
Also, by the way this works, it can't happen in 2.53. However, it does occur in 2.43, though I have no idea what the side effect is.

With all the fake stuff we see on the Internet, especially Youtube, some people might have an hard time believing anything until they saw it from their own eyes. However it's definitively real. You can't go wrong with BrandonW, Thepenguin77 and a few others.
Also the vids are nice, but it would be best if you didn't have the watermark on the Nyancat one.
You bet. I'm even showing a video of The Office intro to the guy at my MIT interview. The only complaint I have about this project though is the fact that I synced it to 18KHz so that it would work on all calculators. While this might seem ok, on smaller speakers, you hear quite a screeching noise. Edit: Speaking of that (attachment)

Feature request: would it be possible to block PTT and/or the 8+5/8+2 +ON combinations?
No, TI actually did a pretty good job on those. You can't block them without modifying the OS. However, you can undo PTT through OFFSCRPT or the USB hook, but by that point, your groups are already gone. But I use OS 2.43, and so it doesn't have mathprint! 
Meh, still an issue. (I'll fix it) [quote EDIT: I got a nice idea (In program editor): On+Left:Undo On+Right:forward [/quote] The problem with that is that that's not at all how I handled the undo. The main problem with the way the TI editor works is that one press of clear and you lose a bunch of data. I fixed that by making the clear button actually copy the line it is erasing. To be able to undo and redo would require an entirely different system. Plus, the system would actually have to be smart Why cant this work for 83+?
  :'( .....
Bad Unfavorable hardware Also, as I wrote this, I remember why I could so easily make room for the undo feature. It's because I overwrote the Mathprint command history! So, try not to delete any 2000 byte long lines of code until I fix that.

A bug report: In the basic editor it didn't work to press FORMAT (2ND before of cource) and then go to Axes off, when I hit then enter the tolken appeared and behind that were a lot of question marks and there were no more lines after that code. When i exeted via 2ND MODE and then go back in the program is back to normal, just the AxesOff isn't there. I had to acces it via the catalog.
EDIT: I tis aswell with all the other tolkens in that menu
I see the problem there. That menu is a different context, just like the mode menu. The reason it glitches though is because I didn't know that . Also, the problem is really only prevalent in MathPrint, so I didn't notice it. zstart seems to collide with DCS7...
HA! I know. Here are the problems, with solutions: -
DCS will create OFFSCRPT whether it is using it or not. This means if you have a startup picture or a startup program, DCS will get rid of it even if you tell it not to create it. (I think the solution is apparent here)
- DCS chains to the rawkey hook, which I am very impressed by. However, the second time you run DCS, it chains to itself. A simple page check on the rawKey hook would clear this up.
-
Lastly there is the parser hook. For this one, I don't blame kerm at all for killing my hook. Parser hooks are a pain to chain to. The workaround for this is to either disable DCS's parser hook, or just press ON+CLEAR when you quit DCS. But honestly, kerm and I do almost the exact same thing with the parser hook, so this probably is not a problem. Actually, he does chain, it's just the same deal as the rawkey hook.
You know what, I'm going to go post another bug report. Although, of course I'll be much nicer ;) However, if he ignores it again...
Edit:
Feature request:
Draw the functions in Full speed mode *.*
That would be very nice :D
Uh, it already does that in 15mhz (OS is slow)
That is correct. Basic programs are run in 15MHz mode
Edit2:
Yay, he did listen. OFFSCRPT now works seamlessly with DCS. Once he fixes the chaining issues, they will be compatible.
