I am counting on you guys to review it and let me know what you think. I am also undecided what to cover next...
I should have the 83 version of this posted tommorrow, after I make sure everything works fine, and after I change some of the key presses...
I might start workin on some 86 basic tutorials...

I think you need to make the colors a bit lighter so its easier to read, but other than that the tutorialis awesome, much more game oriented, at least that will awnser most questions asked by new TI-BASIC programmers :)

Did you know all about that random stuff? I know I didn't... :)

Do you think tying in how levels can interact with the screen be a good next lesson?
Hmm, I think I will begin plotting this out...
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on August 04, 2005, 09:42:00 am
@dysfunction: might be a nice tutorial since its game oriented, unlike BASIC guru and the manual but keep in mind that the TI-83+ owner manual is still a great reference as well for TI-BASIC functions ;)

And what do you recommend as the next lesson, taking into consideration from lesson 2/3ish on...?
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on August 05, 2005, 02:07:00 am
so far I dunno for next lesson maybe I'll get more ideas soon
Post by: tifreak on August 05, 2005, 02:11:00 am
The "Kevin, I'm hurt" is an expression off of a movie that I saw. :)But I am serious about what lesson should be next. I don't really know where to take the lessons, since I am extremely thorough with them...

I guess its because of the color RPGs on this website :D
, well I would suggest a AFX 2.0 if u can find one for cheap, because the Casio CFX is slow because of the colors and you cannot have ASM games on it. only one ppl did by modding his calc, his name is Martin Poupe I think. But if you can find a CFX for really really cheapo go for it then Post by: tifreak on August 05, 2005, 07:54:00 am

let's hope it's actually a working calc though ;)

look to who he ask this question %)
so far it look quite complete, its a bit hard to know if somethign is missing because there might be stuff I didnt used becasuse I didnt needed it or maybe I know most of the stuf frelated to TI-BASIC collision detection. I think the blue and red colors should be a bit lighter though... I am blinded now O_O

The blue, maybe. But the red isn't that bad...
And the whole reason I am askin you to go through it is because I know you know alot about the hit detection. But like everyone, there is always something to learn... :)

Lesson 9 explains the basics of the graphscreen (the Format and Windows options) and explains the commands that are in the DRAW menu.
Lesson 10 will explain how to deal with points and pixel commands, and will show how to store and recall a picture variable.
After that, what do you think a good tutorial would be??
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on October 18, 2005, 08:28:00 am
maybe I forgot to click the post button <_<souind ncie make sure you dont forget the do and donts because I hate seeing ppl making game sthat wont turn off axis at startup... err. WAIT Diortem has this pb :P
I dunno for next tutorial though, anybody else have ideas?

2) I am revamping some stuf fon the website
3) I need to implement some features ppl suggested for XXR
4) christmas is coming and I work in grocery store, this mean that (as I said before) my work schedule will soon do kaboom (goes from 30 hours a week to 4-50)
5) other stuff going on as well right now

Hmm, when winter gets here and if there is a lot of snow, I might have to put in a 30 hour shift... Will probably work 80+ hours...
And I have decided to do at least one on codex, explaining every option available.
I will probably go through and check out all the tools available here for the 8x series, and write something up on them as well...
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on October 19, 2005, 03:20:00 am
you should write one for the old xLIB (the non app version) as well and if you ever get xLIB APP to work (in a emu) write one for it as well
Post by: tifreak on October 19, 2005, 07:08:00 am
I will leave the asm libs as 'advanced tutorials'. :)
Post by: Ranman on October 19, 2005, 03:16:00 pm
I should do something like that when I finish Ultima. One thing at a time. <_<
Post by: tifreak on October 20, 2005, 01:44:00 am
Oh yeah, I am almost done with lesson 10, so I should be releaseing 9 and 10 very soon. :)

j/k I know that would be way too much work
Post by: tifreak on October 21, 2005, 08:24:00 am
I was lookin in my cpanel stats, the one that shows how my site was found, and someone googled http://tifreakware.calcgames.org/tutorials.htm
%)
That gave me a big >D
Lessons 9 and 10 are now available! Check em out, please. I need to know if there is anything in them that needs to be improved...
