Hey everyone! I'm Hyped, and I make tons of programs...like mass production, whether it be during class or in my free time:D
I write programs in Basic and ASM for TI-83+ and TI-84+ calculators, mostly. I might try to learn 68k sometime after I get bored of z80.
Some Interesting Stuff:
~Rubik's cube solver
~A crude version of Guitar Hero that runs too fast :P
~3D animations
~A bunch of math suites/programs :D
~Pokemon Blue/Red working on certain models of the 84+, but then TI changed hardware a few years ago.. (S models)
I've worked on some projects with other members of TI-calc, so you might recognize some of the stuff here :)
On the non-calculator hand, I'm a sophmore in high school, and I work in Windows and Linux as my primary operating systems on the computer. I've done some programming in C, and created games, and fun software stuffs.
So here ends my awkward introduction thingy, I'll be posting more often in the forums once I'm not as busy with schoolwork/projects,etc....
Here's my n00by old website that I made when I was like in 5th/6th grade-ish...I know it sucks...
Computer Games: http://bit.ly/9nZt0u (http://bit.ly/9nZt0u)
Calc Stuff....sorry about broken image links, I haven't worked on site for like 2-3 years...

Welcome to Omnimaga! :D
I am sure your peanuts will be here shortly!
We hope you enjoy your stay here! :)
-
Wow. Did you write all those? If so, those are great!
Also, welcome to Omni. Your peanuts will be arriving shortly.
EDIT: Just saw DJ's post. I thought the 3d grapher looked familiar, but I wasn't sure. And yeah, stealing stuff isn't cool.
-
Heya and welcome here :)
I will check your two websites as soon as I get some time :). I'm particulary interested in the calc one. I'll still check the computer one, too, though. Do you have Windows 7 compatible stuff there?
-
For calc stuff, I wrote stuff by myself and also with some friends on TI-Calc...
Games should be compatible with win. 7, you might need to run as admin for it to work though.
So yea, I'll see you guys around the forum once I get less busy :P
-
Ok, I hope you get less busy soon. Good luck with your stuff. I'll check your sites this evening, probably, unless I am busy with the 9th anniversary Omni vid or playing Starcraft 2. :)
-
Welcome to Omnimaga :) All of your programs look really impressive, i especially like your 3D grapher, it works really well!
-
And your peanuts have arrived!

Welcome to Omnimaga, Hyped!
EDIT: Wow, your programs are great!
-
no no no, Deep Thought, you've got it all wrong... :P
it goes:
Here are your interactive peanuts, click to eat!

-
no no no, Deep Thought, you've got it all wrong... :P
it goes:
Here are your interactive peanuts, click to eat!
Mine were interactive too...
Well, just a tip for ya, Hyped: Whenever you see a link in Omnimaga, you should click it :)
-
you used the wrong brand of peanuts...
oh, and yeah, what deep thought said is correct, you must click every link you see!
btw, Deep Thought, how was he supposed to know you were supposed to click it if you didn''t tell him to click the image? :P
-
Hi Hyped!/me wonders if Hyped can solve a Rubik's cube with his BRAAAIIINZ
-
From what I saw on other people's peanuts, and looking at the links it leads to, it looked like a RickRoll.. :D
But yea, nice try :P
:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.
Yea, I can solve a rubik's cube with my head, thats how I made the program :P
"A computer is only as smart as the person who programmed it"
But no, I'm not one of those crazy people who solve it in like 10 seconds >.<
-
No, it's a link to the awesome Starcraft flash game DJ Omnimaga made a few years back. At least the second bag is, the first one is a rickroll.
-
Welcome here and I hope you enjoy your stay at Omnimaga :)
-
what!? no! I linked to the wrong thing!
EDIT: no! the edit button isn't working for me! :o
EDIT2: on that one that is.
-
My Rubik's cube record for 3x3x3 is 42 seconds, and 6 minutes for a 5x5x5, and 3 minutes for a 4x4x4.
-
"Rick Astley Edition" gave it away ;)
EDIT:
Want me to decompile the SWF?
Lol but its not that bad of a song anyways once you get used to it :)
-
Welcome! Enjoy your stay at Omnimaga! :D
(BTW, he's my friend - awesome at programming)
-
seriously? I can't even solve a 2x2x2, I have no 3d envisioning at all. :'(
-
I never tried myself x.x
-
"Rick Astley Edition" gave it away ;)
oh, no, thats just a bag of peanuts some one modified so it said that...
-
I can't solve a 2x2x2, they're wicked hard.
EDIT: Looked up 2x2x2 instructions, found some really good tutorials here: http://tinyurl.com/2eah76e (http://tinyurl.com/2eah76e)
-
I can't solve a 2x2x2, they're wicked hard.
how so?
they can't be harder than a 3x3x3 right?
-
My friend can solve a 2x2 but can't solve a 3x3 lol.
-
The size doesn't necessarily affect the difficulty. I learned how to solve a 4x4x4 and 5x5x5 without help from teh internetz.
-

Yeah I take you very seriously after clicking the link in your previous post :P
-
My friend can solve a 2x2 but can't solve a 3x3 lol.
I think the 2x2x2's easier. Basically, you're just solving for the top, then the bottom corners, exactly as on a 3x3x3.
-
Well, I guess I may have cheated on the 2x2x2 with that tutorial, but I learned the others on my own.
-
You know, I really want to try a 3x3x3x3: http://tinyurl.com/ykdygum
EDIT: Not a rickroll ;)
-
We should probably go back on topic, though, so I don't need to lock this thread :P. (post counts doesn't increase in Intro but it's not the Randomness forum after all :P)
-
yeah, true, welcome to Omnimaga, enjoy your stay! You programs are really good, btw.
-
Yea, Alberthrocks told me to go register on Cemitech as well, so I'll be active there as well as here when I can :)
Thanks everyone
-
Cool, I hope you remain active for a while when you are not too busy. :)
Also there is a new programming language besides TI-BASIC and ASM that you may like. It's called Axe Parser. It's easier than ASM but much faster than BASIC and it's the only third-party language of the sort that ever got as popular as BASIC and ASM in the TI community. It depends of people, though. Some people prefer TI-BASIC syntax or find it harder, while some will prefer it to the others.
-
yes, I've heard amazing things about Axe, albert introduced it to me last year, and it seems like a pretty noteworthy language to learn. :P
-
Nice to hear. Ok, I'm going to check your calc site now that I got some more time and WabbitEmu handy :)
-
Sorry in advance if my stuff that I've worked on is too noob for you :P
I'll make a new website soon and upload my newer and more advanced stuff...the stuff on my old website was made like a long time ago when I thought the "Hello World" program was the coolest thing.
-
Ok, I have checked the programs on your http://lienyingzhe.webs.com/ti8384programs.htm site and I was really impressed at the work put into some of them. However, it would have been greater if the original author of the respective programs was left intact in the readmes. After checking Graph 3D, I noticed it was very familiar with our dear KermMartian's version, located at both http://www.ticalc.org/archives/files/fileinfo/255/25521.html & http://cemetech.net/programs/index.php?mode=file&path=/83plus/basic/math/graph83p.zip . I tried it, and it turned out to be the exact same program. So then I tried a few others and they sounded familiar too. In some cases, even the readme was identical, with the exception of the original author.

Taking an already existing program source code, replacing the author name with yours then releasing it as your own creation is stealing. Not only stealing by itself is very bad, but code theft goes against the TI community (and game making community in general). I have been in the TI community for 9 years and I remember when those programs were originally released. Some of their authors were or are well known programmers in the community and those authors spend hours of work on those programs. You can be sure that when Kerm discovered this copy of Graph 3D, he must not have been happy at all. I myself was not happy and I can assure you that if someone used one of my program source code without giving me credits, I would not be happy either. I was personally victim of music theft on Newgrounds and I know how it is when you spend a long time working on something only to discover later that someone else who hardly touched the source code claims the entire work as his own (+friends)?
Sorry but it is not acceptable. Please, be proud of yourself. If you do not know programming, try to learn it, we will be very happy to help. We have plenty of BASIC and Axe programmers and a lot of us are also experienced with z80 assembly too. But don't take someone else's program to claim it as your own, boasting about your programming skills. If you modify someone's program, at least write "Written by <Original Author's Name>. Modified by Hyped" in the credit names".
Now I think you should take those files down or put back the original author names in place. Have respect for people hard work in the programming community. I am pretty sure people will eventually earn respect from you if you do and more if you try to learn to do your programs yourself, even if they are not as high quality when you start up (everyone gotta start somewhere, after all).
But yeah, stealing == bad. Sure, some ppl download games illegally, but I think this is not as bad as claiming them as your own creation.
-
:( That is sad to hear.
Stealing programs is bad. :(
-
Partially correct.
Indeed some of the original names were removed, so I will take blame for that. And I give my apologies to the original coders of the original unmodified versions. However, most of the stuff I posted was modified from the original in some way or another. For example, Guitar Hero was modded to run a bit slower than the original since it was way to speedy and almost unplayable. Other programs were modified as well to run better, fix bugs, and so on, but I still should have put the original author names into it as well.
Check Cemtech for more details..

I have read your post on Cemetech now.
I am glad that you admitted your mistake now, although we all wish it would have been done sooner (such as not saying you made those programs in your first post). Of course everyone does mistakes, but they need to be pointed out in the good direction. My hope is that in the future, you will credit the right people for your future releases if they include code or images from other people. Also if you acknowledge your mistake and do not do it again in the future, then become a good contributor to the community, you eventually repair your reputation for the most part. Although you mentionned you are busy in another post, we hope that you'll stick around and I hope to see some nice programs from yourself, and as I said in another post, feel free to ask for help if you need any as people will be happy to help other programmers to contribute. Also feel free to share your thought about other people projects as well, but mind the board rules (http://www.omnimaga.org/index.php?action=ezportal;sa=page;p=2) :P
-
I am disappointed that you would call other people's work your own, but it is good that you finally owned up to it. Well i hope we can all get past this and i hope to see you around the board.
