It might be worth trying to run this from a linux boot with wine if that is at all possible. It might just give you another 90 days until an alternative can be made.

Maybe I'll spend some time converting all of the C routines into asm and then running trials to see which one is faster. I doubt GCC will be faster than my routines, but maybe tied. And the reason I use my own asm routines for floating point numbers is because I made a routines that use fixed point floating points which are faster than regular floats.

I find that Camper was in it only for the money and I knew the whole time that rapture wasn't going to happen yesterday. That being said I think that Camper will declare a new date for the rapture using the 84+'s random integer function

Yeah my issue is more that some of the active Prizm coders has pretty much just moved their Prizm activity elsewhere.
I think that is because Cemetech has shifted emphasis to the Prizm while the emphasis here is is still TI even though TI indicates again and again that they don't want our business. On the other hand Kerm basically said yeah, ti doesn't want us so screw em. We have a good alternative in the Prizm so we don't need ti. That sort of gives the impression that this is the ti site and Cemetech is the Prizm site. Just my impression.
They're still 80% a 8x coding group working with assembly and BASIC. However, they have no discussion whatsoever about the NSpire. They have extremely profession C coders over there (Kerm , Tari, Jonimus, are no short than C geniuses) which is more of forcing us to go over there for help, as they refuse to help us more over here. However, I plan on helping out over here more as well -- I can't really get help here, but I definately can help others and post routines I make.
I agree that you have a point there Ashbad. Right now I'm one of the only native Omni Prizm C coders (wow that was descriptive  ) But I really don't have time right now to post much on that because this is the end of the school season right now. This summer though I can post more stuff in here, but the issue still remains that my audience is quite limited. I will though answer any Prizm C/C++ questions over here.

Lol.
As for me if there were more canadians here or people who can easily come here, I think I got a few places idea that can be rented for such stuff, although one of them sells alcohol, so I'm not sure if they allow people under 18 (maybe they can close the bar in special occasions, tho).
Well I'll be visiting Canada this summer, but unfortunately it is Vancouver Maybe we should just do a skype chat for now. Doesn't Cemetech do something like that once a week.

Well i'm still working on an Axe like language and a shell, Qwerty has Java and Lua. If we get all that out this summer then Prizm coding will have a permanent spot on Omni whether or not we have C coders. [off topic]I talked to my school's vice president today and he was very impressed by the Prizm and troubled by the atrocities that TI has committed.

We should rent the entire San Diego Convention Center for a weekend. (That's where ComicCon is hosted)
We could overclock our calcs and have LAN parties where the superior air conditioning would prevent us from suffocating j/k

For now most Prizm hacking is done as we now have addins working and gcc running, but there is still much left. This summer I will be focusing mainly on projects and then probably this winter I'll go back to hacking such as trying to install a third party OS. I did vote no as my guess is that there will be more action here within a month, but if that is not then case then we should merge boards.

I've been working on making a program to demonstrate the abilities of graphs and how they can be used used in programs, but I still can't get the syntax right for changing the color of graphs. Otherwise I have every other function that I wanted to demonstrate in place. One way to draw graphs smoothly in a game is to use the command SimulOn which causes every graph to be drawn at the same time instead of separately.

Alright then, if I find some other way I'll be sure to keep it off the forums. But I have some suspicion that the manager uses SecuRom to ensure you don't go over 90 days. imho SecuRom should be illegal software due to its unrestricted access to system resources, registry, and the fact that's it's nearly impossible to remove from your computer.

That too. Now if only we could convince all teachers to switch, although I'm sure this would never happen on a worldwide scale  . It would be nice to see more schools promoting the Prizm, though. Maybe once someone here wrote a math suite including everything the Prizm lacks that is needed.
Qwerty and I are still working on a math suite, but before that happens we've been working more on creating development tools for the Prizm which will ease that process. The expected date of arrival for any development tools I would predict to be around late August and if not then it would be around Christmas break. And I'm stilling working on turning my school away from the dark-side and into the light. I'll be meeting with my school's vice president soon to discuss the possibility of the school changing calculators. To do I will need to find some evidence that TI will cancel the 84+ soon, as in the next 2 years.

Nice to see that Casio still updates the fx 9860g. Even better that these are real OS updates that fix bugs and aren't like what TI does with 84+ 2.53 and 2.55. Unfortunately Casio hasn't fixed any of the Prizm bugs or really done anything new at all there since January.

I'm single, but I do want to date. The problem is irl you could say I'm kinda shy. The other thing is when I started to high school 2 years ago I only knew about 8 people and those are people I knew, not necessarily my friends. But I've been recovering and I'm hoping to find a date for homecoming this fall.

What I find really cool is how fast the animations are and also how amazing they look to begin with. Good luck with this and I can't wait till I can play it

Would it be possible to have normal and full compilation modes. So if a program runs at normal by default the code for changing the clock to normal at every dispgraph wouldn't be needed. Also this could be used by 83+ owners so that when they compile a program, full commands are ignored.
