Title: [PRGM USAGE] how to romdump
Post by: Spellshaper on October 10, 2005, 10:21:00 am
I now how to dump a 83+r0m with a serial link cable, but what about the USB silver link cable?
On every calc site you get tons of information about romdumping, but the USB silver link cable almost always seems to get left out... why is that and can anyone help me? :urecrazy:fou2.gif  It would be nice to test my RPG progress on the Pc instead of having to back up my calc every time I want to test something new in case anything goes wrong... <_<dry.gif

I think there is a program called rom8x at ticalc.org that now allow to make ROms for TiLem, which emulate the TI-83+SE/84+ calc models and others

If you are using VTI, you will have to locate ROM version 1.12...

*argh* for a complete image with rom8x I need TiLem, which needs the GTK+ library, which needs  glib-2.6, atk-1.9 and pango-1.8... and glib-2.6 needs libiconv and gettext.... *dies of internet traffic cause ISDN is so slow...*

//edit: uh and now? I got hose freaky libraries amd TiLem, but those only consist of unknown file types... mabe I

normally you need to run the .exe file which is in the .zip file of GTK libraries and follow th on screen nstructions. Same for TiLEM

actually, look in the readme, and go to the link about glade or something like that, it will install all pacages you will need, all in one exe file

btw did you tried the actual rom in VTI and PindurTI? If it doesnt work here either this means the rom is borked. Sometimes this happens when you rom dump while listenign to music on your computer or do any other things that require lot of CPU usage and make rom dumping slow down
