General Ndless Questions and Support
stuffstuff:
I have an nspire cx.
I currently have ndless v1.? (probably 1.0 or 1.1) and haven't updated it since. Now, I want to get more games such as doom 2, and I want to use nlaunch (or nlaunchy?) to get cas functionality (I don't plan to take the ACT).
Do I need to get ndless 3.1, and should I? Do I just download os 3.1 from tiplanet and then follow the nspire 3.1 instructions?
Is there any particular order that I should install nlaunch and ndless in?
Do I install nlaunch or nlaunchy?
Is there any way to find all user uploaded games for nspire cx ndless (and can I use games for the regular nspire ndless on the cx?)?

Ndless 1.0 and 1.1 only work on the oldest OS 1.1 versions, and those are only for the Clickpad models. For a CX / CX CAS calculator, you need OS 3.1.0.392 and Ndless 3.1.

Depends on the manufacturing date and hardware revision of your calculator. It's a group of 1 letter, 4 figures and 1 letter written on the back, at the right of the serial number.
If the last letter of that group is J or higher, you're in trouble: at the time of this writing, there's no way to do anything with those calculators. If it's H or lower, you can downgrade for OS 3.1 to work, either directly (if the calculator's boot2 is 3.10.16) or after reflashing the boot2 through a relatively cheap, widespread but extra equipment known as USB-RS232 TTL adapter.

Yes, it's described in the instructions :)

nLaunchy is the newer, community-maintained version of nLaunch and nLaunch CX, which were made by unknown author(s).

In the Omnimaga, ticalc.org and TI-Planet archives. There's also a site by compu, but I'm not sure how to date it is.

It turns out that I had the right version of ndless already, but when I was installing nlaunchy, it wouldn't work.
I got stuck on step 9 (https://github.com/Excale/nLaunchy), where I had transferred the os, but I was continually rebooting, with no progress (past 60) after 3 minutes, and it said something like PP123... in the top left corner. Then, after something like 10 tries, I went back to the maintenance menu and deleted the OS again, and now it asks me to install an os every time. Sometimes it gives me an error, and sometimes it says success, but it always gets me back to the same place, 60%, saying Operating System not found... How can I fix this?
