I have checked this multiple times: when I save a rom file from wabbit emu, all my programs are missing. Is there a way to fix this?
Did you archive the programs? The ROM file doesn't contain any of the RAM.

I got an Nspire the other day, so I got this program. The only problem I have is that it freezes whenever I try to open the program more than once. I have to delete the save file and reset the calc to use it again. Is this supposed to happen?

I have this problem. It's a glitch that hasn't been adressed, but it has been made known to the developer.
Keep trying.

Soooo... I finally tried to create my rom with Wabbit by saving directly with the .rom extension, and it worked in some way :P
It said "Flash Failed". I guess it means it doesn't support all zStart features. At least it displayed something this time :D

DJ_O, yes. To get it to work, different computers just need to play with the settings. Try to be as minimal as possible, and use the software that isn't entirely new, ya know, just keep with the times, not ahead of them.

Hayleia, it's just great ain't it? :)
Keep trying.

jacobly: if you can draw some text to the screen like version numbers, you may want to add some basic instructions to the black screen like how to load the rom and what kind of rom is needed and things like that

So, bug report, on my CX CAS, as said on IRC.
-An archived Axe source doesn't show up in the compilable progs list, and trying to unarchive it leads to ERR:Memory even before getting to the program list and even if I have 23000 bytes of RAM.
-Screen shifting bug: after quitting the emu, pressing ON makes the screen shift weirdly, but other keys work fine. See the video (sent by email because too large for attachement), where I whack the ON key so that you see what happens, and make some stupid calculatings in the scratchpad so that you see that other keys work fine
I own: 83+ ; 84+SE ; 76.fr ; CX CAS ; Prizm ; 84+CSE

well I had a strange bug, when i used the knight OS rom, it worked but when I closed it it corrupted my filesystem, leaving me with en system error on the bootscreen. so i had to wipe my calculator.
i'm not 100% sure that was the cause, but it was the only thing i did with it.

I will not try to reproduce the problem in a month because i'm not going to install ndless during my exams.

(this message is warning to everybody who wants to try 'knight OS' on the emulator, backup your stuff)

Hmm the new version you provided ( http://ubuntuone.com/4Lwc8oddR4SOcfP3L03WNX ) doesn't have any bug... because it doesn't do anything :P
It just produces a file with a .out extension, but its size is 0KB so I don't think I actually have to send it to you to know what thre is inside :P

(note: I tried by renaming ontest into calcemu_cx, launching with file association or launching it directly, and I also tried renaming the rom into "rom" and launching ontest, none of those did anything)

When I try to open the emulator on my cx, it says "this document format is not supported even though it's a .tns.

Does this only run with ndless?
