Well, I just started basic programming like 2 months ago :$ and I'd like to share one of my projects thats going on with everyone.
It's HoboWars! Just another fully graphical basic RPG for the TI-83+ that I started during the time when exams were over. I haven't worked on it that much since but I think I'll start work soon. It's completely written in basic and I guess I could probably make the file a little smaller later...
Help would be appreciated ^_^ , just e-mail me at [email protected] if you want to help.
I attached the demo file instructions B-) .

ooh nice new RPG! Expect me to try it around this weekend! ^^

Welcome btw. As you can see there isn't much on the site at the moment, but it's because the other site was deleted and i am waiting a backup, which should be done next month or near march. The 55000 posts and all members account should be back then. You will proabaly need to register again though.

I'm probably going to use some assembly utilities later on, but for now I'll just finish it, then I'll enhance it. Registering again isn't really a problem is it?

DJ Omnimaga · « **Reply #4 on:** January 27, 2008, 05:12:00 pm »

No problem registering

As for asm libs the most popular one is xLIB, which a lot of RPGs uses. Later there will be Celtic 3 as replacement though. Celtic 3 in its final form will have the same command syntax than xLIB plus more, so if you switch you will not need to modify your program. I have no idea when it will be finished though

Thanks for the tip, I'll probably learn to use xLib sometime soon and use it in HoboWars ^_^.

Oh shoot, my ram just cleared while I was working on it and I think I deleted it from my computer. I may have to restart on this O_O... I'm still looking, it should be on my computer somewhere... If I can't find it, then I'll probably remake it and add some xLib functions to it =D. But I'm still looking for it... -_-

DJ Omnimaga · « **Reply #7 on:** January 27, 2008, 08:26:00 pm »

this sucks, alwalys never forget to do backups, that way it reduce risk of project loss

sharkee · « **Reply #8 on:** January 27, 2008, 09:15:00 pm »

Shoot, can't find it anywhere

. Guess I'll have to restart. However, progress should be fast because I finished learning the xLib functions and I can use them in the program now =D. Note [1] to self: MAKE A BACKUP! GROUP IT OR SOMETHING! Note [2] to self: Stop looking at DJ Omnimaga's spoiler picture, your going to get a seizure if you have to look every time... -_-

Does anyone have instructions for how to use the real(

thing with xLib, it's the getkey function, but I have no idea how to use it, it keeps showing 9 in the Ans variable... Am I supposed to try some loop that I haven't tried yet?

vuurrobin · « **Reply #10 on:** January 28, 2008, 11:29:00 am »

well, 9 means that you pressed [enter], maybe from executing the program/command?

try this:

Code: [Select]

repeat ans=15
real(8
disp ans
end

Ohhhhh, I see, thanks a lot =D

kalan_vod · « **Reply #12 on:** January 30, 2008, 12:29:00 pm »

Also this site has many great resources to look and play with

sharkee · « **Reply #13 on:** January 31, 2008, 10:35:00 pm »

Wow, kalan_vod, nice site, I can probably use it. Right now, I'm done with the title selection screen and I'm working on the maps, equipment, stats, and sprites! But, progress is going to go really SLOW because my grades are dropping like crazy... 4Cs and 1B and 2As... Parents are really ticked off -_-

Don't let your hobbies (if they are in calc programming or not) affect your schoolwork..I have done this, it is not any fun when you have to retake classes because you want to finish making a game.
