[TI-84+CE] First Fantasy: Mana Force release [TI-84+CSE]

[DJ Omnimaga]

No problem. I'll give the program another try, though, to see if I can reproduce anything odd.

Also it's DJ Omnimaga (or DJ_O), not Omnimaga.

Took some pictures using the screen capture in TI Connect CE:

This is the error message that happens when I get jumped by a monster in the Cave of the Unknown

When I press "Goto" it leads me to here:

The one it leads me to is the Output(1n,1,sub("Fighter Mage Wizard etc...
I don't know anything about what's wrong with it, so yea...
Hope this helps a bit, DJ Omnimaga

[DJ Omnimaga]

Looks like a domain or dim error. I'll have to investigate

EDIT: @Araidia could you tell me which calculator model and OS are you using, which linking software you used and where you downloaded your game copy? Because I am unable to reproduce the error. When I do a fresh reset then re-install the game, I do not get any error when running into enemies in Cave of the Unknown.

Could the file have been corrupted during transfer? Or could it be the italic n variable that doesn't work in certain modes or on certain calc models?

[Araidia]

I guess I have the stock OS since I got the ti84 plus ce on Monday through amazon... Were there any OS updates since the TI84+ CE came out? That might be my problem

[DJ Omnimaga]

Nah the game runs on all available OSes so far. And I got the same model. Could you try reseting your RAM then resending the game?

EDIT: @Araidia I think I found the problem. When you started the game, did you use the New Game  option with F3? Because if you start from Save 1 or 2 with F1/F2, it will cause this error in both battles and the in-game menu. You have to save your game before loading from Save 1 or 2.

[Araidia]

Ohhhhhhhhh... I didn't save it after hitting f3.
It works now, thanks for all the help!
Sorry for the inconvience 

[DJ Omnimaga]

Awesome and no problem.

it looks like I have reached 10 featured ticalc.org files over the years accross the three author profiles I had at one point (the first lasted 2003-2008, the second 2010-2011 and the last one 2013-present) or another in time, because ticalc just featured Final Fantasy: Mana Force:

-Zelda: Dark Link Quest (2004) http://www.ticalc.org/archives/news/articles/11/119/119577.html
-The Reign of Legends 3 (2004) http://www.ticalc.org/archives/news/articles/11/119/119577.html

Super Mario Smash Dance was also featured in 2006 on http://www.calcg.org and First Fantasy made TI-Planet front page last month or so. Note that on the 3rd profile I grouped most of my old games together. As a result, Illusiat 81 ended up being featured twice, in some ways.

I am happy to announce that version 2.0 of First Fantasy: Mana Force for the TI-83 Premium CE and TI-84 Plus CE, compatible with OS 5.4 or below, has been released!



As of now the file hasn't been updated on Cemetech and Ticalc, but the new version, featuring the new UI and full-screen graphics, is now available on TI-Planet: https://tiplanet.org/forum/archives_voir.php?id=185757

Make sure to not upgrade your TI-83 Premium CE or TI-84 Plus CE to OS 5.5 or 5.5.1. This game uses ASM/C libraries by DrDnar and the new TI OS removes ASM/C support.

[DJ Omnimaga]

Version 3.1 is now released, with the following updates:
-The game launcher now has an icon in shells like the C Silver Edition version did.
-Save files are now archived after being edited, for protection against RAM clears.
-If a save file is empty when loaded, then a new game is now launched instead.
-The error that rarely happens upon exiting the game from the status menu might have been fixed, but it is not 100% sure yet.

https://tiplanet.org/forum/archives_voir.php?id=185757

The Cemetech and Ticalc copies should be approved in the next hours/days. Keep in mind that the TI-84 Plus C Silver Edition version of First Fantasy is no longer updated since 2015, so all the 2020-21 changes only apply to CE models.

[DJ Omnimaga]

Major update with version 4.0 release!



-Four bonus dungeons added via an entirely new quest unlocked at the end of the original
-Some graphical improvements in dungeons and the village
-Title screen copyright layout changed and reduced in size
-In-game controls that are displayed on-screen now shows up as button icons for better readability.
-Fixed save loading bug introduced in 3.1.
-Some dungeon colors and graphics changed.
-If a second quest is started after beating the game, a star now appears besides the save file on the title screen.
-The last error mentioned in the previous version changes might have finally been fixed once and for all.
