WOW, working great - many thanks SpiroH! :)
Thank you too!

A clever idea making the horizontal/vertical layout automatic, I guess you've used the ratio window width/height>1 ==> horizontal, right? ;)
What else could it be ;)? But is handy, isn't it? People (not you!), in general, take some time to realize the utility's power, i guess, or maybe they're just enjoying the sunshine ;D.

Cheers,

Help to initialize the emulator

I have the following ROM in my PC:

"TI-NspireCAS-3.1.0.392.tnc" (9,916 KBytes)

backup and then renamed to "TI-NspireCAS-3.1.0.392.zip" and extract files

0: boot2.cer                 (1 KBytes)
1: TI-Nspire.cer            (1 KBytes)
2: boot2.img                (855 KBytes)
3: TI-Nspire.img (7,253 KBytes)
4:  samples.zip
    4.0: locales (dir)
    4.1: copysamples

And with Ndelss.tns and polydumper_3.1.tns extract the following files:
- Boot Code 1              ( to boot1.img.tns   512 KBytes   )
- Boot Code 2              ( to boot2.img.tns   1,328 KBytes)
- Diagnostic Software   ( to diags.img.tns   640 KBytes)
- Operating System           ( to os.img.tns           9,917KBytes   )

and transfer to PC

0: boot2.cer                 (1 KBytes)
1: TI-Nspire.cer            (1 KBytes)

2: boot2.img                (855 KBytes)
3: boot2.img.tns      (1,328 KBytes)
4: boot1.img.tns      (512 KBytes)
5: os.img.tns              (9,917KBytes)
6: TI-Nspire.img          (7,253 KBytes)
7: TI-NspireCAS-3.1.0.392.tnc (9,916 KBytes)


Then exe kArmTI_v29.exe

Files: 4: boot1.img.tns      (512 KBytes),  3: boot2.img.tns      (1,328 KBytes) , 7: TI-NspireCAS-3.1.0.392.tnc (9,916 KBytes)

"/1=boot1.img.tns /MXC /PB=boot2.img.tns /PO=TI-NspireCAS-3.1.0.392.tnc"

EDIT
Code: [Select]
"/1=boot1.img.tns /MC /PB=boot2.img.tns /PO=TI-NspireCAS-3.1.0.392.tnc"

the emulator crashes, in the dialog box "Choose Language"

For emulating a Clickpad/Touchpad CAS, you need /MC. /MX(C) will emulate a CX.

Please check it with the TI-NspireCAS-3.1.0.392.tnc OS clickPAD


PD:

Request for Skin Editor:

0: For more precision in the box of key, show a window with a zoom of the current position

The  SkinEditor for emu48plus has this option

I admit we have a problem with the new v1.29 version, that occurs during the os installation phase. I didn't notice it because i use already prepared flash files. Sorry for any inconvenience. :(
I've tested with version v1.28_v1, which you can find here kArmTI_V1.28_v1 and it works fine. It's the version pre-USB explorer.
Well, new things, more changes and potentially new bugs. That's just normal life, i gather. I'll try to fix it asap. Thanks.

EDIT:
Probably, in the meantime, the bug has been fixed. Please check kArmTI_v1.29_v2.

kArmTI_v1.29_v2. works correctly, Thanks.  ;D


Small bug

0: The windows "USB LINK EXPLORER"  and "Console "not fit vertically the screen of my laptop (1280*800 pixels)

SUGGESTIONS:

0: As I use the taskbar always on top, then add option to show up this emulator.

1: Make more intuitive, the menu "File/Boot Options..."

Example
__________________________________________________________________________________
Boot1 File Name:  [Boot1_OS_3.1.img] [...]
Boot2 File Name:  [Boot2_OS_3.1.img] [...]
OS name:            [TI-NspireCAS-3.1.0.392.tnc] [...]
Flash Session:     [TI-NspireCAS-3.1.0.392.img] [...]
Hardware Model Choose: [ { TI-Nspire ClickPAD/TI-Nspire CAS ClickPAD/ TI-Nspire TouchPAD /TI-Nspire CAS TouchPAD/ TI-Nspire CX / TI-Nspire CX CAS} ] [...]
...

Thanks for your answers

Hi, i'm announcing (yet) another version, v1.30 of kArmTI for testing.

 

Hopefully we should have:
1. Better usb communications (and less debug clutter on the console).
2. A Host tree to allow dragging items from the CalcList onto a Host's tree folder.
3. A picture previewer pane (normally hidden below the host's pane). I'm positive some of you, specially the picturephiles, will appreciate it. Ah, for those (me included :) ) i've also added a picture popup (same size as nspire's lcd) when a picture-file item on the host's listctrl (.png, .jpg, .bmp, .gif, .ico, well, a lot...) is right-clicked.
4. As per Franz's suggestion i've also made the QuickKeys dialog modeless as opposed to modal. Actually, it was a real pita to carry it out after these (roughly 2) months. There may be some new glitches here... (Yep, "not all that glitters is..." that easy.)

Hope it works and you enjoy it,
SpiroH

how long does it usually take to install factory image? Does it take a long time?
EDIT: nvm. I put MXC instead of MX.

Something's wrong. When I open v30 of kArmTI, nothing happens. I opened it several times. Later I checked task manager and there were 5 process of kArmTi_v30, all with about 68k ram loaded. Usually it takes 100000k
Also, there's a bug I realised recently, if you leave the emulator idle for a while, the arrow keys refuse to work afterwards. (This might be a bug with the emulator itself, not the kArmTI component)

I like the v1.13 skins much better than the current ones (because it also includes non-cas skins!)

I'm really sorry it has happenned to you! Can you please be more specific and tell me what OS you're using so that i can try to reproduce the problem? I can assure you it works just fine in my win7 64-bit box without a hitch. So, tell me more, maybe we can help.

Well, if you leave the emulator idle for a while, naturally, it enters the power saving-mode (it thinks is running on batteries ;)). Have you tried to wake it up by pressing the power button ?

Of course, your skin mileage may vary. No problem with that. :)

Nice to hear from you again and thanks for the feedback.
Cheers,

I got this after I copied kArmTI_v30_0 to an USB stick  O.O
And I can't do anything unless to click on "File" or "Emulation".
The original still works :)

Hi Wayne, I haven't yet tested it from a usb stick. But i'll do it and i'll get back to you asap. But, it smells like some important files are missing...
Regards,

Edit: I've tried the USB-Boot of kArmTI_v1.30 and it works just fine in my system. Below are:
1. The minimum files you'll need (well, SKINS can also be skipped but it's just that it looks beter for me :)):
    
2. The boot Options i used:
 

Also, i've started with a clean registry! So, in principle it should work from a usb drive. I'm using a cheap EMTEC4GB drive. Hope it helps,

I copied my "kArmTI" folder with all the necessary files to my USB drive a time ago. The only thing what I've done is to copy the new kArmTI_v30.exe in the folder and when I want to open it this happens.
I solved the problem as i send the whole folder with the latest kArmTI to my stick again and replaced the old one.

I have some feature requests (maybe some are already implemented but I don't find them)
- Save state and load state (I've found "save flash" but no "load flash" ???) edit As I thought, It was already implemented but it was me not finding it, I just need to rename the saved flash "T310CX_CAS.bin" and it loads fine :)
- Video recording, not just screenshoting/assembling into gif, but real video recording into a avi file for example (this one is going to be hard :P)

I own: 83+ ; 84+SE ; 76.fr ; CX CAS ; Prizm ; 84+CSE
Sorry if I answer with something that seems unrelated, English is not my primary language and I might not have understood well. Sorry if I make English mistakes too.

Actually, is not that hard. ;) I've done it before, so it's just a matter of some free time (which i don't have a lot to spare nowadays). But otoh, please tell me if you don't mind, are you willing to deal with huge (several 100MB) files? or do you have something else in the back of your mind? Cheers.
