Title: TI89, TI89-Titanium, TI92+, V200, emulator to Nspire
Post by: mannuri on November 18, 2012, 10:51:37 am

Hello,

I have trie found anything about emulating TI89, TI89-Titanium, TI92+, V200 in a Nspire but i dont have found anything.
there is so many consoles emulatores, why dont apears other calc emulators. For Basic programs i dont relay need a emulator, only few things change but I dont know nothing about Flash Apps code, and .lua code is a bit complicate/confusing language for a ''basic builder''.

I junt dont understand why no one talks about it.

thank you .

calc84maniac started a TI-89 emulator, but lost the source due to a hard drive crash.

Plus except for the (old) games, there's really no use for this and the keypads aren't the same (remapping them would be pretty awkward, it is already hard enough to use on a computer).

TI abandoned the TI-68k series in 2005; the TI-68k developer community belittled a lot in 2006-2007 and never grew back up.
Few people care about the TI-68k series nowadays, though it still has more community programs than the Nspire has, including stuff that has no equivalent on the Nspire.

I think porting programs would be wiser than emulating them. I cant do this though since I don't own an nSpire (but I plan to get one :)).

Yeah, as posted above and as I posted in another thread earlier today (or maybe in this one and accidentally my whole post), Calc84maniac used to work on a TI-89 emulator for the Nspire. However, it did not manage to run at full speed and he lost the source. I think he started working on it again a year later, but then it showed no more sign of life.

Also porting would be much more work, since the screen size is different and the processor as well. They could be greatly enhanced, though. Also, if you have a TI-89 emulator for the Nspire, you could run some TI-83+ ASM games with http://www.ticalc.org/archives/files/fileinfo/388/38820.html , which might be handy for those with a CAS or CX model with no built-in 84+ emulation (*must resist urge to post Xzibit memes*)
