Are you sure there's not backwards compatibility? It sounds really backwards compatible to me. The only things messed up are drawing commands. Most programs that TI cares about would work just fine.

Looks like someone is working on a jezzball port, from that pic.

@DJ zsnes will never run. It's half x86 assembly, and takes heavy advantage of x86 features that ARM doesn't have. You'd have much better luck by porting an ARM snes emulator.

That has been around for a while. It doesn't work the way that article says.

It cheats a fair amount. It takes a super-short image of one part, with the timing adjusted slightly each time. It takes several hours to do. They piece the frames together afterward. It should be noted that it's all monochrome. They recolored the coke bottle after they made the video.

If you don't have mkfontdir, then you don't have the binaries necessary to do the more automatic font configuration. You'll have to build the font-utils tools from Xorg source, which I'm not going to help you with. Other people should be able to help, though.

I'm surprised it's not already in there. It's a standard part of xorg.

If you open up this RPM in an archive manager you'll find a selection including 5x7

A specific boss might deserve its own animation, for example.

I doubt we'll be seeing any live action games for a while. Turn based RPGs wouldn't be so terrible, though, since you can just render your effects directly.

Yes, like that, DJ, but keep in mind it will never be more than 1 frame behind. That GIF is very exaggerated. Broadcast television is interlaced.

No. You're just installing fonts into your X. The images are unrelated to xterm.

To use the font you want, use xterm -fn name without .pcf.gz

If you want a really small font, I'd recommend going for one of these I'm uploading. There's a 4x6 one, and a 6x13 one, but that one is probably the same size as what you're using.

This page goes over installing and using xterm bitmap fonts.

The 4x6 is ugly, but it's the smallest readable font you're going to find.


You can use truetype fonts if you want, but they're designed for much larger sizes than what you want.

Indeed. Monster AI should be advanced enough to provide a decent challenge, but that's for when we have a working battle engine!

Guess who's not surprised. :P This is pretty much exactly what I was expecting after I heard it was still z80, although I was expecting a little more than this. They didn't even up the RAM.

Makes sense. What's the limit of tiles per area? If it's high enough we could do big buildings with lots of tiles.

I was thinking of making a nice ocean tile animation. I think we'll need that too.

Xterm's default font isn't freetype, so you'll have to load a different font if you want it to be resizeable.
