Here's a screenshot running m4r10, using the Nspire's perfect grayscale :)


Note that it won't run quite that fast on a real calculator, for the same reasons as the GBC emulator.

How possibly can you play so well in high speed?

calcmaniac is not only a good coder but also an extreme player. :o *facepalm* It is the demo...

wow nice, great job so far! How good is the compatibility?

Maybe Goplat included the ability to slow down/speed up emulator and calc84 did a tool-assisted speedrun :P *hides*

Gotta love that built in grayscale! =D I'm really curious what actual speed will be like. I wouldn't be surprised if you had to slow it down.

Wow!  Amazing!  :O

I am curious however, do 89's have built in greyscale?  If not, how do you detect the 'color' of a pixel in order to implement it correctly on the nSpire?

I take the average of the pixels in the last three frames. I believe that's how TI-Emu does it as well.

The Nspire is the only calc. that has built in grayscale so far. Grayscale implementation on the 68k calculators is the same as the Z80s.

so the Pandora can't do everything :P
I was wondering could we have a few beta releases to play around with?

That's incredible ;D.  But it kind of sucks that TI finally decides to add built-in grayscale in the same model it decides to get rid of assembly support :(

I was messing around with the translator in Goplat's emulator 'cause I was bored... :P But now it's running closer to actual speed, though it's probably still too fast. At least, Super Mario 68K is slow enough to be playable now! :D

Interesting that a 90 Mhz processor can emulate 10-12 MHz too fast. Usually emulators are so poorly written, they cannot do that
