I apologize if someone asked this before, but does the Nspire Ti-84+ emulator take into account the extra RAM pages?
-
I am not sure about this, as I have never really used the 84+ emulator too much, but, I would think it does because I have been able to run "The Impossible Game" on it, which uses these pages (I think).
-
It has to have one extra page to support 2.53 MP
From what I've heard however, it supports all 8. Curse you TI! Why can't you support it on real hardware! :P
-
Excellent, because the unabridged version of S.A.D. (such as big maps and four races) might require those pages :-\
-
yes, but dont get hopes up, most games that use ram pages, use undocumented commands, which cause nspire reboot ;.;

that would be much too convenient :P

They don't have to, qazz. Outputting to ports 5, 6, and 7 is much different than using ixh, ixl, iyh, and iyl :P
-
Yes, but by luck, most do.... like TI-BOY, emu8x, virtual-calc.....etc
-
Nearly every single one of my games use the extra ram pages, and the only time I've ever used undocumented instructions was for TruSound.
Unless something needs to run very fast and use hacky jumps, (emulators and sound programs,) they don't need to use undocumented ones.
-
Does all your games use more than the first, though? This would mean most of your games won't even run on newer 84+ calcs at all (made after April 2007)
-
Since he himself has a newer one, he only uses one extra page, which the Nspire should definitely support (b/c 2.53 MP needs that third page)

Correct.
-
so basically none of his games would run on an original 83+, but 83+SE's and 84+/SE's are fine?
-
Pretty much. I tried to get the impossible game to run on 83+'s. But I didn't know they didn't have extra ram pages. I could still do it since it only uses 2kb though.

yep...

It would be cool. ^^
