xlib I assume... but it is looking very nice.

PTI most likely it is the best for that kind of thing.

TheStorm doesn't seems too enthusiastic about seeing new BASIC (or specifically xLIB) project, but It doesn't matter much as Zetaboards has an ignore feature like IPB 2.x, which Invisionfree doesn't have, but thanks Art Of Camelot.

I used Calcapture to make the screenshot from PindurTI. I didn't used the built-in screenshooter because I needed the screenshot to go at the speed of SE/84+ calcs, which PTI doesn't support and I wanted the screenshot to be 2x size. Also grayscale looks like crap in other emulators

On an offtopic note I wonder why does it matter so much to some people if a game is made with xLIB, with ASM or with BASIC? I still can't understand why in 2008 people still attempt at making others feel embarrassed or feel bad for using one of those and tries to discourage him from continuing his project? I just see no point about this. Imho those people should just keep their comments to themselves and not post in the topic if they don't like the game just because of the ressources used to make it. It is just retarded, elitist and stupid.

After that people wonder why I deleted my files from calcg.org and UTI (and soon ticalc.org too when their file archiver in charge of emails comes back)

OMG that looks even better than LL right now lol

edit:
@DJ_Omnimaga, I think it's because people need know if they can achieve the same thing themselves.  If it's in ASM and they don't know ASM, they won't really care too much.  If it's xlib and they do now ASM, it's more pressure to do something similar.

I have to say, xlib and celticI-III are a boon to the ti community.  Seriously, way to Kevin.  You can still out do some of the best.

Progress on this might be delayed due to some recent events, and the fact my TI-83+SE appears to be nearing its death. When I put in new AAA batteries, even if the calc isn't used at all after two days the batteries are dead. No ASM programs were running and I was using 2nd+OFF to turn it off. Idk if it's because the lithium battery is dead, but it doesn't seems good, as IIRC the lithium battery was only in charge of keeping RAM intact when the calc batteries are changed and when I change them it still does. It could be a battery that is defect, but it did that with 2 sets of batteries so far, and I tried with two different brands (not mixed together of course).

Keep in mind the calc is 6 years old now, and the newer the stuff, the faster it tend to break *points to 1994 TVs that broke before his 1986 one*, so maybe this calc is about to be done. I cannot program this on my bro's 83+ because half of the stuff in this project required a SE to run

EDIT: The entire set was dead, meaning it's not just one battery problem. It could be the lithium battery though because when I switched batteries to see which one was dead one by one I got two RAM clears. But I still don't know how the lithium battery dying could drain AAA's power within 15 minutes of use within 2 days?

Well when the lithium battery is dead it uses power from the AAA's to maintain the ram. If it wasn't the lithium battery your ram wouldn't have cleared when you changed the battery's.

well it didn't cleared all the time tho, just twice, out of 4. So this means batteries are still being eaten when calc is turned off then?

if the lithium battery is low then they will most likely drain when the calc is off then yes. tough just remember you calc is never really off unless there are no batteries in it, it is just in a low power state waiting for you to press on though even if you lithium battery is low it shouldn't drain that fast.
