thanks, man!

Great tutorial! I'm finally being able to work with asm. Still I wonder: does the program we get work on a TI-84+?

Be sure that you set your 84+ to classic mode if you have OS 2.53.  Other than that, most Ti-83+ programs run on a Ti-84+.  There are very few exceptions, and I don't think any of the lessons have exceptions.

True, some people outside the calc world are astonished what can be done on those calcs sometimes.

Incidentally, can we transform this cool ASM programs into calc apps?

Appendix A gives you all the details for doing just that.  For the purposes of the example programs in the lessons, you only need single-page applications.

Ok. I've just begun lesson 6 so I didn't know. Thanks.

Calm down applications, you made your first program today :S

just finished all the lessons, I'm starting on Appendix C now.    thanks Hot_Dog!  what would you recommend as a first ASM project that I can do just based on the stuff in you lessons plus some help on Omni?

You're welcome!

Well, there's many, many things you could with just the stuff the lessons provides.  But as a first, I'd say either a memory game, tic-tac-toe, or Battleship.  Battleship is just as easy to create as the previous two, but it is a longer project.

If you're feeling really lucky, try a shooting game that uses no-smooth scrolling, something like Ti-83+ Quake but with 2d graphics.  http://www.ticalc.org/archives/files/fileinfo/118/11880.html Using the sprite routine from Appendix B, it's not too difficult to create a non-smooth scrolling tilemapper.  If this is a game you want to try and make, I can give you some pointers such as a "to-do" list.

i need help. in lesson 8 (the colors program), is the program continuous or does it require a new notepad file if it doesnt say "continued on next page"?

Okay, I see where you're talking about.  I meant to write "continued on next page."  But usually, if you see several red boxes in succession, and if only one of those red boxes has .org 40339 or .org $9D93, the program is continuous.  Does that make sense?

Yeah... still i'm so into asm that I want to learn it all in a row... I know is not healthy...

And I forgot to mention that there's some stuff in Appendix A that requires knowledge of previous ASM topics
