Are you supposed to be able to use floats as arguments to the sprite routine?
No.
@apcalc: Post your modified scrollScreen().

bwang, that was the problem.  I had SCREEN_BYTES_SIZE+bytesOffset, which probably made it larger that it could handle.  Thank you so much for your help, I feel so stupid when it is a simple error like this. :) You might want to modify the utils.h/.c header to include functions for scrolling the screen up and down.  Here are my (hopefully working :)) modified versions:

Code: [Select]

void scrollScreenDown(char* scrbuf, char* tmpbuf, int lines)
{
  int bytesOffset = 160 * lines;
  int cpysize = SCREEN_BYTES_SIZE - bytesOffset;
  memcpy(tmpbuf, scrbuf - bytesOffset, cpysize);
  memcpy(scrbuf, tmpbuf, cpysize);
  memset(scrbuf + cpysize, 0xFF, bytesOffset);
}

void scrollScreenUp(char* scrbuf, char* tmpbuf, int lines)
{
  int bytesOffset = 160 * lines;
  int cpysize = SCREEN_BYTES_SIZE - bytesOffset;
  memcpy(tmpbuf, scrbuf + bytesOffset, cpysize);
  memcpy(scrbuf, tmpbuf, cpysize);
  memset(scrbuf + cpysize, 0xFF, bytesOffset);
}

[\code]

Glad to hear its working :)
I should probably move the scroll functions to graphics.h.

Glad it's working. I wish you good luck in your projects, if any (Starcraft Nspire... j/k ;D )

We really need some documentation for these functions. I've started on it, and will post it when I'm done.

How do you convert an integer to a string? I wanted to display the score in a dialog box upon exiting my game.

Also, the documentation is almost complete for utils.h, except for fade, scrollscreen, and WAIT. What do all the arguments do in these functions?

Hmm, to convert an integer to a string, don't you do sprintf(string_ptr,"%i",score)

Unfortunately, sprintf hasn't been written yet. There was another, simpler function, itoa, but it depends on this standard library function.

I thought sprintf is part of the OS, and we are able to use it. Was I mistaken?

sprintf is part of the OS (at least it's defined in os.h).

scrollScreen() arguments:
Code: [Select]
scrollScreen(char* scrbuf, char* tmpbuf, int lines)
Scroll the screen buffer scrbuf up lines rows. tmpbuf is a temporary buffer of the same size as scrbuf used by the routine internally.

I never thought of looking there for sprintf. Thanks!

Also, at least on windows, the windows and linux makeTNS binaries can coexist peacefully, and I have a hunch it will be the same on linux, though someone should confirm it.

I updated the first post with a better graphics.h.

I found a small error in common.h.

The "?" key, named "KEY_NSPIRE_?" causes an error when compiling because of the ?.

I have attached a fixed version with this key named "KEY_NSPIRE_QUES"

Fixed in the first post :) Thanks for the bugfix!
Can someone verify whether the Linux and Windows versions of the tools can coexist in the same directory? That way I can merge the two skeletons.

I already said they can coexist on windows in a previous post here.
