There's no reason why it shouldn't work. The keypad change is detected by the OS, the hardware doesn't do anything about it; so if a hacked OS is installed, you could make it to work with either keypad.

I just fixed some sprite priority bugs. :) A bit of documentation that had been strewn about the internet was a bit ambiguous.

Also, yesterday I made the emulator position-independent. This means that it should run wherever it is in memory (which may be useful if I want to run it with the hack)

Nice, I can't wait to try this on calc. Btw I was wondering something just now:  When you put the TI-84 keyboard on the Nspire in 84+ mode, TI-Connect, which was made way before the Nspire came out, manages to detect the calc as a 84+, even if the hardware is a TI-Nspire. When you use Emu8x on a SE calc, TI-Graph Link software recognize the calculator as the one emulated and I even got able to transfer files from my PC to the calc or vice versa even if the calc hardware is not a TI-82, 83, 85 or 86.

I was wondering if it will be possible with future calc emus for the Nspire? (for older models, I understand the 84+ keypad would have to be plugged in since the Nspire one has no I/O link port

Yep, that's probably quite possible. Probably the TI-OS will handle all the linking stuff if the emulator changes the link status when told to.

that way, it would be awesome since anyone using the emu could produce games without using the real calc or PC programming editor. On PC it's impossible to use emulators for TI-BASIC developpement as you cannot even grab the files.

Except for on the most recent build of wabbitemu, I think there is an export option...

Really? I guess I didn't check revsoft much enough. Btw I use the build from 2007 or 2008, because the new ones weren't guaranteed to always be stable IIRC *points to the one that comes with TI-Boy SE*. Before this, the only way to send files to the PC from an emu was Virtual TI through virtual link cable, but most people claimed it didn't work at all, plus it was via serial link cable, no USB.

Now that Ndless is released, can we have a release of the 89 emulator? This would partly solve the problem of OS 1.1 being not so good for doing math...

I am not sure how far he was into this project. I remember somthing about the emulation being much slower than the real 89 calc. Maybe it was fixed, though.

But it seems to be usable. And I remember seeing an awesome screenshot of the 89 Mario game somewhere.

yeah true, I guess maybe he'll release a beta if he's willing to. But we have to be patient since he has school and a lot of projects (including for the regular 83+)

I wonder if this is running into legal issues like RunOS. TI definitely wouldn't appreciate this, since it cuts into 89 sales.

I think this emulator will be like Emu8x for the 83+SE: you will be forced to get a ROM dump from your calc (or find it on warez sites) to be able to use this emulator. It's the same as WabbitEmu and the like. Emulators are very legal, else we wouldn't be able to find console emus anywhere on non-warez sites. So Calc84maniac cannot get in trouble for releasing a TI-89 emulator for the Nspire as long as the TI-89 AMS or the ROM image is not packaged into it.

<off-topic>EDIT: that reminds me... I wonder if Emu8x works on the Nspire 84+ mode...</off-topic>

Just because its legal doesn't mean TI will sympathize, since people have ways of obtaining ROMs. This might cause them to take legal action against the writers of Ndless (probably something about disassembling the OS and violating the Nspire EULA).
