Oh they are inside? I think they should be copied outside, though. Some people may want to see the instructions before downloading the file. I myself check readmes before installing a BASIC game. If the controls are stuff like "use arrows to navigate in menus" and no sign of map engine controls, I generally don't bother trying it.

Ok now on progress over the past day or so…
Unfortunately I have met a dead end with the health bars: I can’t make animating health bars. The pixels don’t refresh when I want to. My version 0.3 is turning out to be working even worse than before, I think ill make some small updates, then release it as my last version. This is the situation if I continue to build on with my current code. However, another TI-nspire BASIC programmer (not sure if he’s a member of Omnimaga) has emailed me recently saying that he created some health bars using a different way, I hope to confer with him over the next few days, and also ask if his method allows animating bars. Stay tuned!

Sorry to hear. Did you also try with loops or something or do they just not animate at all? And I hope that person joins eventually :D

yeah i tried For End For loops. i might have coded it a bit wrong trying again. even if it does get animating, it'll probably be really slow, (loading clock) and won't refresh properly

I see x.x. I guess we have to blame TI for the slowness x.x

Ah ok, well good luck. I would like to see a TI-Nspire RPG with a certain minimum of graphics like your bars. THe TI-RPG game seemed impressive for the TI-Nspire but aside from the title screen it had no graphics :(, not even ASCII sprites like Rogue/Illusiat

Yes, im thinking of making a rpg with these health bars.
anyway i found new opportunities! and DISCOVERIES!
yesterday i took heed of apcalc's grey scale plotting. i found it line colour and it changed the colour of the pixel plots! this will be shown in my next release. how dumb am i! such a simple thing and i missed it! GREYSCALE is now possible!
also i may be able to animate bars using sliders! But i will have to change the variables first. i discovered that the graphical changing of the health bars was indirect (eg: a variable changing a variable) i will try and make a single variable connect directly to the pixel plots and animation might be possible
also i will ask the other person soon for his ideas....

Wow I didn't knew TI allowed grayscale usage in their Nspire BASIC language. Nice!

Wow nice! As for his screenshot it works fine for me right now. I completly missed that post before, though. Can't wait to see your new screenshot :)

I think the 1and1 server RFG image uploader is hosted on has some downtimes nowadays. Once, I remember loading a page and Nemo's signature was massive. The script did not load completly and showed the entire image instead. Also sometimes stuff takes a while to load. It's far less bad than Imageshack/Photobucket, though.
