[TI-84+CE] This Is The Only Level +CE

Well, I'm pretty sure the problem is that I'm reading from the keyboard too much, but I'm not sure how to correct this enough to make it unable to crash like this. I'm hoping Mateo can figure something out, so I can update as soon as possible with a fix.

if it's events triggered by the key listener, maybe insert a 10ms pause? (only guessing here, I dont know your code nor the language >.<)

u/JWinslow23 December 20, 2016, 12:07:19 PM

I'm sure the drawbacks of that would outweigh the benefits.

I need a Christmas miracle for this

I reworked your code and did a few optimizations and fixed some bugs. I no longer can make it crash; can anyone else?

Works for me. The current download links should be updated within a day.

@MateoConLechuga , in CE C, how do you get the current year, month, day, hour, minute, and second on the CE clock in the MODE menu? The demo isn't making it clear.

Well, idk really because TI makes it orders of magnitude more difficult than it should be. However, might be able to just use these defines for now while I work on making it a nice little structure or something. Note that years are weird; you cannot set them directly. However, these may work fine if you are just reading the values -- I haven't tested enough, but it seems right.

Code Select

#define os_Years  (*(uint24_t*)0xD177CF)
#define os_Months (*(uint24_t*)0xD177DB)
#define os_Days   (*(uint24_t*)0xD177D8)

You can just use rtc_Hours, rtc_Minutes, rtc_Seconds for the other things.
I'm actually not sure how TI treats days. May be better to just use rtc_Days.

Just made a TAS of TITOLCE with CEmu, in 5:25.37.

Enjoy :

great choice of music, its really perfect for this game xD

But I think it would look better if in the "keep hitting it" level, the door would open up like 2px every time you hit it ^^

u/JWinslow23 December 20, 2016, 10:47:19 PM

@p2 that might not be a bad idea! It wasn't in the original game, but that would probably look better (and give you more of a clue how to beat the stage). However, I'm not sure if it'll look weird that, say, 4/5 of the door is open but you can't go in.

u/p2 December 20, 2016, 11:01:08 PM

maybe you could make it like slowing the elephant down very much when the door isnt completely open?

closed door = 0 speed
...?
open door = max speed

I cleaned up the toolchain and added API functions to easily set/get the date and time. See boot_GetDate for example in tice.h

But, but... Elephants never forget, do they ?

u/JWinslow23 December 21, 2016, 05:55:12 PM

Updated with bugfixes and Easter eggs.

File should update itself by the end of the day, December 21.

u/Dream of Omnimaga December 21, 2016, 10:46:25 PM

I can't wait to try it. Also nice light effect

EDIT: I don't know if ticalc has the latest version @JWinslow23 but the easter egg you mentioned to me on WalrusIRC earlier does nothing. I pressed the key on the menu at the title screen or in game, on every menu option, and nothing special happened.
