how many levels can axe scale through? If you submitted one 64x64, you could squash 10 sizes out of that. Axe can do that now, can't it?

No kidding  My parents are really easy on me, mainly because I'm the "good" son. One of my brothers is just plain crazy (literally, and not the funny kind  ) and most of my childhood pain came from him. fortunately, my teenage years have remained fairly unaffected since he has either been in rehab (which was very unhelpful. Now he's smart and crazy, instead of stupid and crazy. Now I actually have some fears for the city of Logan) or now, living in another city  On calc stuff, my parents were mainly unhappy that I was causing others' grades to suffer shouldn't have taken that $5 to put games on that guy's calc. Now everybody begs me for them. Are you the oldest child, Sir? it sounds like it, just because the more kids parents have, the more understanding they tend to be (except in certain cases, like where the older siblings were practically drug lords)

Well, I hope you have more luck learning Asm than I did in my (halfhearted ) attempt. Let's just say I do better with lectures than self-help books See you in January!

Well, at least the deadline says you are somewhere in that ballpark, and to me at least that is very encouraging. Is the 10% in your sig accurate?

@DJ That can be fixed From what he says about nodes on his blog, it sounds like a point and connection line drawing routine (with moving platforms. *drool*) so hopefully Axe will eventually get a level editor for it, and someone could write an axiom, providing he doesn't mind of course

but I'm still thinking: how should you move around? The arrow keys could have you move your char, while alpha switches which you control, but then you can only move one at a time It'd be nice to be able to move all 3 simultaneously. There's no way, at least for the moment, that I'll be doing an Active Time system. It's way simpler to just do Wait. There's one problem though, with that, it would be really hard to do triple techs. In real CT, the time only halted in wait mode if you were actually in an inner menu.

my original 84+: Radio Shack (gone now ) my favorite calc so far, my 86: Amazon (Only $30! screen died) my current nspire: Ebay, $100 (with 84+ pad, before touchpad came out)

Still though, couldn't you make a sort of seed program that handles all the rest, sort of like xcopy? That way, you could (theoretically) have axe games that take up every last bit of ROM on the calc!

I don't think Axe qualifies. newbies crash their calcs before they can release it, or ask "why won't it run?" after they compile it because they forgot the asm( command I'm not anywhere close to any images Right now, I'm trying to get the turn timing down, and work out how exactly to do that while enemies can move around. Any ideas on that? Multithreading, if the implementation itself isn't too bad, soudns the easiest past that. (Ideally, two lines at once.) or I could have it go time, move, time, move, consecutively. As it is, it seems the time engine will take up almost no CPU time. By the way, it will only be Wait mode for turns for now. (As in Wait or Action, where monsters can attack while you select your attacks) for simplicity. Also, different Chars and monsters can start with boosts to time and have different time to fill. As in, tank is slower than rogue or mage.

@DT Remember though, BuilderBoy built that sweet "paging" method that lets him load and unload code from RAM, putting it into archive while running I hope you release how you did that btw (unless you have and I missed it)

OS calls don't count it sounds like Macros are basically the equivalent of a sub() command in axe, with a return. Am I right? or do they behave differently?

Something to note: what makes it a raycaster is that it only allows two planes of rotation. They call it raycasting by how the lines are stretched according to your current viewpoint, and only having two planes exponentially simplifies the math for that method. Raytracing, for example, is the same thing for 3d (as in all planes of rotation and movement) but is way slower than conventional 3d methods. Something to note is that NCaster is still a raycaster, you can move up and down, but not look up and down. Ben's Engine is not a raycaster, but note that he is taking huge pains to optimize it, and will probably never have textures on the walls, unless the 84+ gets another core unlocked

@Jumpacat
Don't forget the other steps it mentions on the site.
Ruuun! That CAS is running bluescale!

I think he meant vice-versa

Is it going to be released? It seems like it would be very handy to use. I wonder how hard an nspire port would be? at the same screen res (with double or triple pixels) you could probably even have wall textures!
