Yeah it was more the 2nd one I got from your post. This might be why there was a misunderstanding. That said I understand your concerns about the code, though, because certain TI community members had code stolen from them multiple times in the past (especially KermMartian who seems to be the biggest target, which is why he no longer makes his programs open-source).

According to an post on Cemetech asking why DCS7 is not open source, Kerm said the code was stolen before. Am I correct?

I would say more like a few years before but again maybe I am wrong and it was less long ago. It was someone still active in the community who joined after Omni was revived, though. He was not the first to do similar stuff, though, because several people stole Kerm's programs since 2002. Bryan Thomas, who made Contra 83, was the 2nd author who was victim of most code theft in the TI community too.


Of course that doesn't include Ebay, because in the past I remember people often took programs on ticalc.org then sold them on calcs for like $200-400 or stuff like that. >.<

Don't complain incessantly over every negative rating you receive. Your life doesn't depend on your rating score.

Does thanking people for giving you negative ratings count?

Yes, I don't remember having complained anywhere... I rather thanked for it  ;D

Well, I really thanked you ! I like when people express themselves and judge the quality of what others do. I only regret you didn't understand my post the way I wrote it... otherwise I probably wouldn't have had these -1.

 :)

Of course it was a sarcastic remark ! But it couldn't be considered as "incessantly complaining", and it's still better that writing what I really thought ! In addition to that, I had a small reason to grumble : your downvote seemed not justified to me (because of the dual interpretations).

Yeah, but these were special thanks  ;D. And the message didn't contain just one sentence.

Coding a new version... And fixed many bugs !
Currently added two levels :
  • A labyrinth
  • A GUESS A NUMBER, between 0 and... 32767 ;D with 20 trials !
Also rewrote some code, and also quite a big change : the saving appvar's structure has been changed !
Spoiler For Data structure:
Old one :
Code: [Select]
+---------------+
|     1 byte    |
+---------------+
| Current level |
+---------------+
Total size : 1 byte

New one :
Code: [Select]
+------------+---------------+---------------------------------+
|   1 byte   |     1 byte    |             2 bytes             |
+------------+---------------+---------------------------------+
| Version ID | Current level | Unused bytes (for future usage) |
+------------+---------------+---------------------------------+
Total size : 4 bytes

[NOTE]
No, I can't give you the programs, nor screenshots, because I have a problem with my TI. This message will be replaced by the programs a soon as I will be able to upload them ! ;)


If you have questions, post them ! I'll be happy to answer.
You are also welcome if you want me to add some levels, give your ideas below (I have no more ideas...)
Also, as soon as I will have uploaded the files, you will also be welcome if you report some bugs. They will go into this spoiler \/


[EDIT]
Moved both spoilers to the first post. It will be easier to find these there.

I'll check that out soon when you manage to upload the files. What is wrong with your calculator by the way? Is the link port dead or something?


Glad to see you again by the way :)

My calculator has a flash corruption (when I said "Crashed by zStart"... seems to be some garbled data that maessed up everything), and a friend of mine is repairing it.
Also, like Zemmagorp (a friend of mine), we are still at school, and we have math lessons to learn... so not many time to spend.

This also is why I can't upload very frequently.

I spent like 5 hours a day doing calculator programming when I still had school. But again, the Quebec hi school system is much less demanding than in other areas or than college/uni (about 5 hours of homework and studies a week max and that's a very rare amount). :P
