Gbc4nspire unique problems
« on: September 19, 2011, 09:50:10 pm »
I have a ti nspire cas (O.S. 2.1.0.631) that has a clickpad. I wanted to get gbc4nspire on it, so I installed ndless 2.0, using the 2.1.0 installer. When I tried running the gbc4nspire v.0.8, it crashed. When I tried using gbc4nspire_t, the left and right arrows (numbers 4 and 6) worked, but up and down (8 and 5) did not. Please help!!

calc84 made a version that works with the actual arrow keys on the touchpad, have you tried that?

I tried gbc4nspire_touchpad and gbc4nspire_touch. Same problem. If you are referring to a different file, could you tell me its name or provide a download link?

you shouldn't be using touch.

You should be using the normal version. You have a clickpad. It's probably crashing while trying to interface with the touchpad.

Oh, you have a clickpad? Can you try using the original version right after rebooting, when there are no documents loaded in memory? Also, try downloading from a different location, you might have a corrupted file.

Well, it makes sense to me why it would crash on touchpad access attempts: Those same pins would be set up differently on a clickpad from the OS's init, and trying to write to an input pin is a bad idea, same with reading from output. Not to mention the key layout would differ.

Well, he said v0.8 (the original crashed), so I think it's something else.

What sort of crash did the original have?

It rebooted, just like what happens when you try to run ASM programs without ndless

EDIT:
I have tried downloading gbc4nspire from multiple locations, all of them have the same problem
I have tried reinstalling ndless right after the reboot and trying again, it crashed again
Also, I noticed that right before it crashes, the black menu screen comes up

Are you using gbc4nspire.tns from http://www.ticalc.org/archives/files/fileinfo/426/42630.html? The old version for ndless 1.1 definitely wouldn't work (and would probably cause the issue you're describing)

I got a version specific to touchpads (gbc4touch) which says 0.8 on the inside.  I have two questions.

1:  The direction you move seems to be based upon where your finger is on the touch-sensitive part of the touchpad, not the actual buttons.  Can you fix that?

2:  Is it possible to get my savs or states off onto a computer emulator and exchange them? (Do any other emus support your saving formats?)

I can answer the question.
The touchpad thingy is one button so he could fixity to only up or down or left or right.

it might be possible if you change .state extension to something appropriate for that emulator.
