Title: axe progs that do funny things to your calc.
Post by: Happybobjr on October 02, 2010, 05:16:35 pm
This topic is just a fun topic that you can post programs for axe that will do strange things to your calc.

Rulz.
1. you must spell rules correctly
2. If you post a program, you must post the
    a. Source code
    b. A screen shot.  (may post program then request someone to make screeny)
    c. No program that just displays "the game" (yes I was tempted to make one)
    d. All normal forum rules apply.
    e. Warnings on all harmful programs

I would also suggest no programs that will screw up your calculator, despite it being a fun little program.

What Meishe91 said, and if this turns into spam I'll move this to Randomness.

ok, i though it would be nice to display mine, and maybe others alterations off the calculator. (I poorly wrote that, but it was the bast i could...)

Instead of deleting and recreating a post, you can hit the Modify button ;)

He was referring to how your post had grammatical errors, and how you acknowleged them.  So you could have checked the spelling and used the quick modify button to fix it.

I was saying that was the best i could word that.

It's not that. I just notice that you deleted the post and posted again, and I was just reminding you that you could just use the Modify function.

Or maybe you didn't delete the post. SpyBot could very well have been restarting then, and when I saw it say you double-posted it might have been just checking the previous post.

Actually, never mind. Disregard this whole thing :P

I know what it was ( i think)
It took me 3 tries to make this topic.

I had screenies with the same name as some other here... so i had to remake the topic that was never made.... It was doing weird things to me
Title: Re: axe progs that do funny things to your calc.
Post by: Deep Toaster on October 03, 2010, 05:47:53 pm
Oh, I see. You could still have used the Modify button, though, and that's what I meant.
Title: Re: axe progs that do funny things to your calc.

the thread was never actually posted though....

Weird, SpyBot posted it twice. That might have been SpyBot quitting and rejoining, though. IIRC it always shows the last post when it joins.

Maybe. Also it messed up the other night once. It posted the same topic 15 times, flooding the channel until Netham45 temporary banned it.

Axe 0.3.2? You should probably update that ;)

I wouldn't be surprised if this was the source of many of your recent problems, especially Input x.x

I remember that Mode 7 demo Quigibo made a few months ago. When setting the horizon too high or low, I think it started doing pretty random stuff such as everything being like 8 times larger.

I once made a program that would create a hidden, archived, basic variable A

I'm going to see if i can recreate it.
Title: Re: axe progs that do funny things to your calc.
Post by: Deep Toaster on October 04, 2010, 11:03:08 pm
Hidden? O.o I didn't know real numbers could do that.
Title: Re: axe progs that do funny things to your calc.
Post by: guy6020665 on October 04, 2010, 11:05:18 pm
They can't. Axe can.

I believe it has something to do with using GetCalc( to try to create a new version of the variable when it's already archived.
Title: Re: axe progs that do funny things to your calc.
Post by: Deep Toaster on October 04, 2010, 11:30:24 pm
I meant real numbers, as in the variable A. I didn't know the OS supported a version of real numbers that was hidden.
Title: Re: axe progs that do funny things to your calc.
Post by: guy6020665 on October 05, 2010, 05:08:33 pm
ok i got it, use getcalc( to create the variable first, then archive, use getcalc( again, and archive again. when i do this it creates a hidden archived variable, sort of, when you try to call the variable it says archived, but you can't see it in the memory screen. And it seems to stop at variable R.
Title: Re: axe progs that do funny things to your calc.
Post by: Deep Toaster on October 05, 2010, 06:20:25 pm
Oh, yeah, that's because there are two copies of the file with the same name, which the TI-OS doesn't like. You could do that with any var.

this program fakes the Ram Clear screen. version: 84+ os: 2.43. for best effect, compile it not as asm.
have fun!

Post by: DJ Omnimaga on October 17, 2010, 04:16:37 am
Nice, although I think the text is a bit off, though, and there are two black squares at the end of the screenshot. It might be nice if it could be implemented as fake reset in a game :P

yes it is. but that 2 squares are because its an asm( program. if you compile it as DCS or so, you dont get that.

Iambian made something like for for all ion programs...that would be scary to have going around X.x (meaning all calcs X.x)

By the way, has anyone heard of that old Apple II prank where the letters on your screen would fall and people would complain to technical support that their 'computers were melting'? I've made a simple version of that with a homescreen hook :D

Post by: Compynerd255 on February 17, 2011, 10:25:01 am
Okay, now that sounds cool, Deep Thought. I'd like to see a screenshot of that.

Someone should also make the Cookie Monster Virus: It was a virus for old computers that would say "GIVE ME A COOKIE" and relentlessly ask until you typed "COOKIE" at the prompt. Maybe, for that devastating X-1 virus, it could do that instead of crashing your calc.

Sorry, I just realized I lost it last time I corrupted my archive :-\

Anybody know what that worm was called, though?

That would be pretty epic, actually...like that as a password program or something :P

honestly I've never seen a fake ram clear screen for 2.53MP. :D

EDIT: yes, thats a fake one. I'm actually running 2.43 :P

I've often wondered, is there a way to get the OS version (BOOT code) and/or hardware type (83pbe, 84pse, etc.)
I've noticed it in some of the tokens, but I'm pretty sure there's a port or something.

I tend to avoid fake reset programs, because I heard there was one that actually resetted the calc for real. <_<

I believe bcall(GetSysInfo) returns the system information.
You could use
L1Asm((whatever the hex code is for bcall)DD05)
and the boot code would be in {L1} and {L1 + 1}, and the calculator ID in {L1 + 2}

The hex code for bcall is EF.

Post by: ClrDraw on October 19, 2013, 01:34:19 pm
If you include the line
Code: [Select]
:Archive "prgm!"it will freeze your calc until you remove the batteries, hold clear, re-insert and clear all memory. IDK if it counts as a funny program, but it is weird.
WARNING: I highly recommend you don't run this, it can be tedious to fix.
