RAM loss?
« on: November 09, 2010, 04:37:33 pm »
A while ago, I decided to play Desolate again.  For some reason, it said ERR: MEMORY, so I cleared my RAM, once again, I could not run the program.  Then I checked my RAM.  It read 21184, that was the maximum amount of RAM I've ever had afterward.

hmm...

I've never heard of that happening before.  I wonder what did that?

Maybe you have something hidden that you can't get rid of, or did some part of the OS get ruined?

maybe you should reload the OS?

I am not familiar with the game. Is it an APP or Assembly program? Does it use a shell of any kind?

Do you have the RAM loss after clearing your RAM?

It's a assembly program, I think it's for mirageOS.

Hmm, how large is the program? Around 3000 bytes perhaps?

@ASHBAD:  its not the OS, because this happened before I installed brandonW's patched version of 2.53MP, and it was still like that afterward.
@Xeda:  Its a program that takes up ~22000 bytes, its a awesome greyscale RPG/Puzzle game by tr1p1ea.  ;)

Oh, wow. Hmm, does it use any external variables? And how old is this program? If it is older, then I will be less skeptical that it is an unknown bug in the program. I am looking up the program now.

Wow, wait up. How large exactly? I am thinking that all of the memory is being removed except the memory used for the actual program...

Dang, double posted. Sorry about that.

It's about 5-6 years old methinks.  It's an old classic some would say :D

I doubt the probklem is caused by Desolate, because its been kept archived.  I've only played it on my BE calc.  basically, I can't unarchive it.

I have known MirageOS to be pretty buggy before, but I am not sure what is going on. I am still checking out the program. Which shell are you using, by the way?

CalcUtil or MOS.

I stopped using CalcUtil for a month or so though.  ;)

Calcutil has some bugs as well. You are using MirageOS when this happens though?
