like to program (obviously), game and occasionally do some hardware stuff like building laser spirographs

Fun, I currently want to remake my Casio that I go recently.

Snektron · June 17, 2015, 07:56:50 AM

Oh was it broken? Whats wrong with it?

Unicorn · June 17, 2015, 06:05:19 PM

It just can't connect to a computer so it's pretty useless

Tho IDK what to do.

You should post some of that hardware stuff. I am kinda curious about them

I have the same problem with every Casio calc I own that came out prior the Graph 85/Casio FX-9860G. Most requires a serial port and one that I got came with an used USB to I/O cable which seems to have been made up and it didn't work.

I can always send programs between my calcs, but if I send a CFX program to the 9860G, then all color commands get changed to @. I don't know if that happens with the PRIZM since it has color support too, but the PRIZM lacks the color Orange, while the CFX lacks Magenta, Red, Yellow and Black.

Are there any emulators for Casio calcs?

EDIT: Also I just got a Airsoft gun yesterday

Well, there are FX-Manager sold by Casio and the builtin emulator/debugger given in the SDK (limited to only using the addin you're programming but with syscalls this limitation is avoidable)

We cant have those in the NL

I once build an air powered paintball gun, but it could also shoot metal balls. And 10 bar in a half a liter bottle caused the thing to pack quite the punch

Ball bearings out of a paint ball gun thingy

I hope your friends were wearing armour

I want to make this,

it is not that hard and it looks like it would hurt.
Reason being is many of my friends that play airsoft don't have any guns (that are in working condition).

Me and two another guys have an actual gun so that leaves two people with LMG's (Large Machine Gun)

alexgt · June 24, 2015, 04:30:40 PM

Well I could make that two of those up quite quickly, so those two guys will have a nice full auto LMG

Our team has five people....
if I make five of those...
Five people running at you with guns that shoot ~10 rounds per second would be quite scary

Snektron · June 24, 2015, 04:33:15 PM

But don't you need to relead and pump air in the container too?

alexgt · June 24, 2015, 04:43:57 PM

Yeah, but you could add more tubes for air storage or even have some in a back pack

Snektron · June 24, 2015, 09:33:54 PM

It would be cool if you could make some sort of battery powered compressor for it

Dream of Omnimaga · June 25, 2015, 01:10:12 AM

Now don't make an airsoft machine gun that can shoot 9000 rounds a second like that Halo weapon
