This project is still in the works guys ;)wink.gif . If you haven't noticed Madskillz really doesn't hang around forums like a maniac, not even revsoft that much. Trust me he is doing work on it, but he just doesn't continuously post updates.

Bfr visits #psugen and #tigcc a good bit. I have talked to him in the last week, but I didn't ask him about MLC. I will ask him the next time about it. He has mainly been working with Qt programming lately though and C++ programming.

Hi!  This is my first post here  :lol:bounce2.gif

I'm really looking forward to an MLC interpreter for the 83+ series.  I've got a question, though.  It seems to be taking a very long time to make.  If there's already a version for the 86, which uses Z80 assembly, then wouldn't it primarily be about changing it for a smaller screen, and changing which basic functions equate to which MLC functions?

Please don't think I'm underestimating the amount of work this must be taking.  I'm just curious why it takes so much work to port.

Heya welcome here! I think I saw you on UTI, or was it Cemetech? Actually there is alerady a version of MLC for the TI-86 by Donald Straney on ticalc.org (since the official site shutted down), and at omnimaga calc rpg and programming tools section. It's very limited though because it wasn't complete yet, but it alerady have 96x64 screen display because it was planned to have 83+SE compatibility back then.

I cant tell much what is the amount of work in the project, but considering 3 people dropped the project in the past at least (not counting casio people), it must be  one huge task :Xscotch.gif

I have visited Cemetech a bit, and Detached Solutions a bit more (I hope the forum gets back on it's feet soon :(sad.gif), but United TI is my calculator home, so you probably saw me there. ;)wink.gif

Maybe I'll take a look at the source code if it's available, and see what sort of stuff might be so difficult to port.

Edit: I just saw in your profile you live in Quebec.  Tres cool! :Ptongue.gif I've been to Canada a couple of times.  First time was a French class school trip to Quebec, and then just recently I went on a cruise that stopped in St. John and Halifax.  All beautiful places. :)smile.gif

Cool :Dbiggrin.gif , make sure to not come here during jan-feb tho because you'll freeze, literally O_Oshocked2.gif

Fallen Ghost is also from Quebec... well, actually his UTI profile said Ontario, so he must be right on the border lol. There used to be another staff here who is from Quebec as well but he is gone :(sad.gif

I noticed DS forums are down -.-blah.gif, they should start a board on a forum hosting if they're really short on bandwidth. then once they find a solution they go back to the old forums, but I didn't posted on DS forums for like 2 years I think x.x, I didnt even had 50 posts here

I probably posted less than you did ;)wink.gif but it was a good forum sometimes because it had the people who worked on those legendary ;)wink.gif calc apps like Omnicalc, Symbolic, MirageOS, and stuff.  Since I started working on an app that uses hooks like theirs do to interface with the OS, that forum has been pretty useful for me (CalcUtil over at UnitedTI - but don't rely on it until I get version 2 out, because version 1 is very buggy and unstable).
