There is also a WIP by ExtendeD, porting nspire_emu to Android:



The source seems to be "lockated" in http://bytecode.fr/nspire_emu

Regards

The copyright problem is then more complex since there are some forks of the original work done by Goplat like:
- ncubate (find the sources here http://www.ticalc.org/archives/files/fileinfo/433/43367.html ) based in Goplat's nspire_emu v0.32 (adds debug commands)
- kArmTI based in Goplat's nspire_emu v0.60 IIRC (adds skins)

It is sad not working together in different areas of the same emulator.

Regards

Hi Le Solutionneur. I've seen the same issue under different conditions. What is the command line you are using? What calculator are you emulating? What Boot1 ROM are you using? what skin are you using?

WHen that happens you can always press Alt key and then the down arrow. That will display the drop down menus of the menu bar. Press right arrow (two times) until Keypad menu is displayed. Then select the right calculator.

Maybe you are having the same problem with warnings. In that case press F10 key and in case you see the debugger prompt "Debug>" then just send the "c" command for continue.

I hope it helps.

Any idea on how to press multiple keys in the nspire_emu or kArmTI? I would like to test the maintenance menus.

A good improvement could be to integrate these combinations under the tools menu bar.

Thanks again

Question: does kArmTI run with the /W command-line flag on by default. Every time I boot the 3.0.0 CX CAS DEVBUILD boot1, the emulator issues a warning (as does nspire_emu) and I have to enter 'c' in the debugger to keep booting.

I'm sorry, but i don't think i can help you with that 'boot1 3.0.0 CX CAS'. Actually, i don't own it so i could not test it. So far, the only version of CX CAS boot1 that i've tested is version 3.0.99.

SpiroH, this my humble contribution to these great emulators.

Testing nSpire_emu and kArmTI with some different ROMs I have found a problem emulating the CX prototype. Boot1CX-3.0.0.DEVBUILD rises a warning in the emulator and it breaks as DoctorWkt has already reported.
Boot Loader Stage 1 (3.00.DEVBUILD)

Last boot progress: 65
Warning at PC=00007718: Bad write_byte: 0001c634 00
debug> c
We have to press c for continue the execution as a workaround.

Last night user fortytwo, in the #omnimaga IRC channel, helped on solving this issue. He changed line 47 of emu.c initializing the boolean break_on_warn flag as false in order to run smoothly. Maybe the emulator could include another command line argument such as /W in order to activate break_on_warn flag if desired.

fortytwo compiled a test version of nSpire_emu and it runs smoothly. Could you do the same with kArmTI?

Thanks in advance!!!!


SpiroH, let me raise an issue with kArmTI not seen with nSpire_Emu. I am playing around with the emulators and nSpire_emu can run Diags using this command line:


nspire_emu.exe /1=boot1cx.tns  /MX /PD=diagscx.tnsIt loads the Diags code showing the available tests. This is the console printout:



When running the same command line with kArmTI, Diags doesn't load. The console printout is this one:


It just halts. Is it a failure of the emulator or am I not configuring it correctly?

Thanks

Also, I take it that 3.0.0 boot1 can't boot later 3.x boot2s?

Yeah, i gather there's been some boot1 changes, but then again i'm not an expert on this version-tracking stuff. Maybe some other people, like Goplat can provide further input (?).

In the meantime, try to find a more up-todate boot1, if you can . Cheers,

I can just test nSpire CAS and the nSpire CX prototype since I do not have any other than mine and the CX prototype Boot1 Rom. I'd like to compare the rest but I can not do it alone since I can not find more Boot1 ROMs. Suggestions are welcome, if anyone wants to help please PM me.

Thanks again for these great emulators!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dear all,

I came here looking for some resources for the TI-nSpire CX CAS emulator and I learned a lot!!!!!

Now it is time to contribute and share my work.

Thanks for sharing your knowledge!!!!
