Ah ok. Too bad about the emu, though. I hope calc84maniac eventually rewrites it for new Ndless versions.

Does it means it works on OS 1.7 btw?

Yep, actually, it does not even support OS 1.1. :)

Also, calc84 said that it *might* be possible to edit the current version to support this version of Ndless.

Wow awesome. Ndless for newer OSes is finally arriving!

Now to see how fast TI will remove OS 1.7 from their site. I wouldn't be surprised if OS 2.2 came out the day after Ndless 1.7 comes out, preventing downgrades to 1.7 too :P

hmm, I wonder how long until the stable version of 1.7 is out :P

Nah, I really need to keep my 1.7 OS hidden in my computer for later use XD

Don't worry: we are watching this closely.
And if it is the case, we're going to post everywhere as we've allready done with OS 2.1, so that nobody will install the 2.2 OS without knowing the consequences.

How about a computer program that converts the old into the new?

It is in the Ndless SVN repository. You need to manually build it, and it is not compatible with the current release of gbc4nspire.

Can this be fixed/patched easily ? . . .

Yeah good idea.

Also critor you could see the fuss OS 2.1 caused in the community. The post you made about it which was moved to news had close to 300 comments and even ticalc.org, which normally remains neutral, recommended people to not downgrade. Our duty now is to continue warning people of future traps set by TI, since a lot of new members join every week

TI won't get us!

I Agree!

now, which directory of the SVN is the beta of 1.7 at?

also, while we are opposing a 2.2, the tards at that google group are saying "YEAH! 2.2 WOULD BE AWESOMEZ!"

You have to download all of the files and build it yourself using the instructions in doc/Ndless-Development.txt (it might not be named exactly that, but it is close :P)

So there's no hope of converting gbc4nspire, because there's no source code anymore.

FALSE! :D Calc84 said on IRC that he could modify the binary.

Wasn't he planning to rewrite it eventually anyway? That said, if he can modify the binary it might be better I guess if it's not too hard

Yeah, I think he's re-writing it.
