I just tried a http://brandonw.net/calcstuff/fake.zip and I tried out resetting all. And guess what... IT RESET ALL!!!! :paf:

Byebye, all projects.... *loud sigh*

 O_O

The programmer's worst nightmare.

Sorry to hear that. :(

Oh wait, that is why we backup all of the files on the calc before trying an asm program... Or, that could just be me...

ew this sucks, this killed one of my major project a long while ago :( but did you did what said in the readme to recover your programs?

QUOTE

>How do I use it? Just run it and press a sequence of keys to be the "unlock" combination. It can be made up of almost any key (including [2nd] and [ALPHA] shifted versions, except [CLEAR] and [ENTER]). Press [CLEAR] to abort or [ENTER] when done entering it. Then it's installed. Once installed, any attempt to reset the memory will hide all appropriate programs and Flash applications. To show and use them again, enter the combination from earlier at any screen or menu.

If afterward you didnt do a real reset maybe they will reappear? And I thought you were programming in asm, so shouldn't you have a copy of them on the PC?

Actually, it was probably the fact that it apparently uninstalled itself after I tried it with RAM clear...

Edit: @DJ, I program asm oncalc... :banghead:

oh lol sorry i always forget about OTBP assembler x.x I guess i am not enough into asm x.x

wow, shouldn't it be a fake reset?  the author should probably fix it :(

No, it uninstalls itself after being used once. I used it with RAM Clear. It uninstalled. I used Reset All. Kaboom.

So, really you did a Reset on your own ?

Title: oops...
Post by: calc84maniac on September 11, 2007, 11:56:00 am

Yes.

Has happened to me before (reseting on my own)..

Not cool.  I guess I'm not messing with any fake RAM Clear programs anytime soon.

 Unless you are the author. :P

@calc84maniac: sorry to hear this happened. What projects did you lose completely aka had no backup of at all on the computer?

Title: oops...
Post by: calc84maniac on September 11, 2007, 01:48:00 pm

I lost:
Project M (restored the binary, though)
Latest version of OTBP Assembler (gives me an excuse to rewrite it)
My interrupt-based sound routine (not too hard to remake, I guess)
The small progress with GSM2
Most of the SMB2 sprites I made over the past couple of weeks
Xtravar Beta 2 source code (salvaged the binary, that's all I need I guess)
...anything else on that calc, pretty much.

I'm deeply sorry to hear :( I guess I'll not mess with any nasty programs like this soon *cough*Iambian flashcrash code in his sigs*cough*

Eh, it was just a lack of proper documentation and a bit of stupidity on my part that did it. :P

 XtraVar Beta 2! :)
I use XtraVar all the time! It helps prevent archive errors and overwrite errors, not to mention that the user can't edit the variables to cheat.

How is the new version going to differ from the original (or is this secret :P )

It looks a little different and it's smaller. :P

i have a question, i dont know alot about assembly but it seems like it'd be tough to code on calc. how do you do the actual coding if the commands are different from basic?

Title: oops...
Post by: TIfanx1999 on September 12, 2007, 01:38:00 pm

You'd have to use an on calc assembler that some one made.

Title: oops...
Post by: dinhotheone on September 12, 2007, 02:28:00 pm

it seems like the assembler just assembles what is already written, i was wondering how you write the stuff in asm. like i know the commands look way different

 Check out http://www.ticalc.org/archives/files/fileinfo/403/40304.html, but if you need to know how to code in asm then you need to read some tutorials.

There was an asm compiler on calc called MON in think, back in 2003, it was like OTBP asembler but less user friendly and very very slow (except for compiling)

Title: oops...
Post by: kalan_vod on September 13, 2007, 03:47:00 am

I remember a app called Charsm or something..

Title: oops...
Post by: dinhotheone on September 13, 2007, 08:28:00 am

okay i get it now. i had thought that the program merely assembles a higher level language (asm) into an executable hex code or something. but it seems that your saying the otbp assembler holds an entire IDE (is that the word) so you can actually code on calc.

Title: oops...
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on September 13, 2007, 12:12:00 pm

kalan: yeah, but the one i am talking about was written in BASIC' like OTBP assembler (altough this one use some asm libs). Chasm was entirely asm though, but too bad it died :(
