have u tried running prgmZSWORD alone, in case there is an error in the game program?

hmm, sound weird, which prgm did u used to send it? I guess resetting your RAM (archive ur prgm first tho) then ressending it again might help, if not, what OS do you use? I only tested FG in OS 1.14 and 1.18 so far

using ti-connect

thats the problem... depends of the TI connect version u use though, I think Dysfunction can send Flash gordon fine to his calc with version 1.53 or something, maybe the FG version I have on Omnimaga can only be sent with TI graph link and TILP.. I dunno, did you tried the Flash gordon from FFTOM2, Reuben 1 and 2, Dark Link and ROL3 as well?

so maybe try to send prgmZDEL adn prgmZ again, are you sure the theta prgm is not named with something else than the Theta symbol on calc?

i dont know how, i didnt do anything different, but it works.  its a little slower than i had hoped, but i guess i can still use it for the maps...

oh nice it works, and yeah its slow I know, thats why I only use it for map loading or for loading huge programs that doesnt require speed much. Now if only xLIB or EBL had FG functions O_Oshocked2.gif

What you have to do is open programTHETA in Graphlink (in your file browser it should be listed as |.8xp). In the Name:  box in Graphlink, change the name from THETA to something else (say programO), then uncheck the Protected checkbox. Now send FG to your calc, including |.8xp. Now make a new basic program called programTHETA (not T-H-E-T-A, but the THETA character). Recall programO (or whatever you changed programTHETA to in Graphlink) into programTHETA, then delete programO. Now you should be set.

Make sure you dont type the code ON calc though becaus eit contains self-modifying ASM code

Actually I unlocked prgm*THETA* with CODEX on my calc to view the source code and I realised the code changed everytime I ran flash gordon, that happen in most non flash APP ASM programs

Maybe I can help:
1. Yeah, prgmTHETA gets edited everytime u use FG...
2. I know of a better "prgm-toRAM-tool" than FG: It

oh sound interesting I completly missed this proggie adn it was recently added, if only the author used a more meaningful name for his program, ressource looks more like a name for  a math tool  <_<dry.gif

I'll check it and maybe add it in the archives here as well :Dbiggrin.gif

actually I looked at the readme, it look uber complicated. Maybe its not but the way the author explained it is impossible to undestand. zCopy is another option though, it copy archived and unarchived programs to prgmZTEMP (ASM or BASIC)
