Any texas instruments calc. programmers/gamers?

Is there anyone developping or gaming (not best gaming ever) on graph calcs, like ti-83+, ti-84...??

 

I use to write games and apps on my Ti83 back in high school but that was like 6 years ago.

I had a teacher that aproved of me using math apps I wrote durring test because if I wrote it, I already demonstrated I understand the way of solving thoes problems (helped on test since I had writen one that figures out all the work and display it step by step). My teachers even asked if they could get my apps to use.

 

You wouldn't happen to still have those programs would you???

Most teachers I know won't accept that. In big colleges they go around resetting the memory, or checking for suspicious software on these calculators.

Only game you need on TI is Tetris.

 

I used to do this a lot in high school... at one point I was the only kid in school with a Ti-83+ Silver Edition!

Gosh, it's so embarassing in retrospect.

(Z80 asm is kinda fun though)

 

Sadly i dont. My freaking brother lost my Ti83. Grrrrrr

I really should buy one again, would make programming at work easier to test out math calculations.

 

Wow! i thought i was the only one who had bought a Ti-83+ Silver :lol:

was not a bad thing, since it got more memory that the regular 83+

countless hours spent trying to make a playable game in basic in my french courses (and english, maths, physics and all the rest)

 

Héhé, i had a TI82 and made a fake reset/format program that reproduced the exact resetting screens of the real TI82 and an empty program list Haha, I was very scared in the case I had to use it ^^ Fortunately, never had to do

Ha, lol ^^

 

Indeed, my teacher was a royal bitch when dealing with these things...

She even acussed me of hacking the school's computers, which I did but he had no evidence and therefore was accussing me based only her spite. Ergo if someone else had done it I would've been punished for it anyways...

BTW subbie I thought you were older, with the whole experience in the industry and stuff...

 

Nope just 24. I wasted my high school life learning to program and working in the gba homebrew scene. First published game was when I was 18/19ish (it was the curling event in the salt lake 2002 winter games for gba). After that I moved to montreal when i was 19 and got a full time job with a small studio up here doing gba & ps1 games. I now work at ubisoft on a psp game.

Yeah you did not ask for my life story but might as well make it clear.

 

didn't knew that a member lived closed to my home (well, 150km approx.)

 

Hey no prob, if you want a boring life story I tell you mine: half of the people I knew is dead and I'm still in college in a career I dont like at all. For what? who knows...

All I can say is: good for you, I wish I had a fulltime job when I was 19 since last year was a complete piece of shit for me and I dont think any crunch time session could've been worst that what that was...

And at least you "wasted" highschool with something useful. I got into politics, now that was a big fucking waste of time...

 

I remember writing lots of crap in basic on my Ti83
I even wrote a graphical snake clone for it in basic had to use the move pixel functions as it was to slow to clear the screen each frame iirc ^^

 

Gemeni from ticalc.org is a great doom clone style game. Written by a friend of mine also

 

dude, i watched you masturbate from your windows when it was the gp3r time.

:lol:

as for the ti, i also had a program with a fake erase screen thing, i used it many times, and showed it to my prof at the end of the year. He said ''uhm, going to note that somewhere'' .

:lol:

 

crap! i forgot to shut the lights down:lol:

you're from 3-rivers or just came to gp3r???

 

All I did on my Ti-83 was program it to say "KISS MY BUTT" whenever an equation was undefined or something. :lol:

 

I used to make simple programs to help me cheat during Algebra tests. Probably the one thing I'm most proud of is making a program where you could move a character around on-screen. One of my friends showed me how to get something like it running, but I cleaned up the code somewhat and managed to get a small game running off of it.

Now if only I could understand a real programming language, I'd be set.

 

Yeah, great times

During my high school i made a cool snake game with a level editor, running at 5fps in the draw area with a virtual infinite snake size using the PtOff instruction, with no need to do a ClrDraw

a "draw area" "lander" game, 7fps

a "3d maze at 2.5fps
a "Stack Attack" using the "home area", with a 9x17 matrix lol, about 4-5fps

a simple "home area" PONG 11 fps- smooth game babe
a interactive scenario PONG-fps

and a scroling shooter -4-5fps
yeah, Basic rules

Now, i´m a mechanical Engineer, what a great Job

 

just came to gp3r, im from les laurentides. ;-)

 

I've got one of those!!!! Got it off the Internet and everyone was soooo jealous! They all had grey ones. Haven't used for a good couple of years now....
