Yea, this project is really amazing. I don't know if you remember DJ, but there was a Gameboy emulator that came out for the TI-89 sometime ago. However, I think it was only Black and white, ran slowly, and had very poor compatibility. It was very underwhelming to say the least. If calc's rewrite allows it to function on the newer 84 models as well that will be quite an accomplishment.

I heard about the GB emu for the 89 too. I do hope calc84maniac can succeed in making it work for the newer models w/only 48k ram.
I will be very happy then, mainly because mine is of the newer variety. I'm sure lots of people would be glad.

I recently got an 83+SE and have been playing with TI-Boy, but whenever I turn sound on, no matter what game I play, the calc crashes upon exiting. Has anyone else had this bug?

Mhmm, I don't remember anyone trying sound on the SE hardware. I wonder if this could be a compatibility issue? Btw, does everything works fine without sound?

Hmm, well, I got tifreak8x to try out TI-Boy a long time ago (before the official release I think) and he mentioned the sound-crashing problem on his 83+SE. I've never gotten any other reports of this until now, so I thought it was fixed.

Besides the sound bug, the emulator works great. It would be nice if you could turn off the sound, though,  and that could work as a temporary fix  :)

I don't know if that would really be a fix or not, because the sound does get turned off when you exit.

any updates on how this is moving along?  especially the RAM page redesigning you are doing?

(heh, sorry if this offends you in some way, I just wanted to know...)

Nah, I bump is a good thing here. Keep us informed, calc84maniac! ;D
Maybe it's on hold, idk...

I don't think he lost any of TI-Boy.  Only his Nspire projects.

Last I heard, he was working on some Nspire stuff.

Yeah TI-Boy SE was on a flash drive. It's just on hold since a while ago. I really wonder if he will manage to make TI-Boy SE compatible with new calcs, though. It would be amazing and most likely even more popular.

ah, good, though I really hope that there is just a tiny chance that TI-Boy can and will be able to run on my TI-84+SE one day

ah well, I could also just wait for ndless 2.0 :P
