Thats the WIN32 version of tilem, works okay, but still not the best emulation.

Then theres pindurTI, but thats still in alpha, i guess.

Looks sweet, keep it up man

Well heres the animated screenie -

The screenie is awful due to the diagnol lines that keep showing up in VTI when you scroll; but on calc ColdFusion looks awsome. Its fast, clear and flickerless on the SE, I havent tried it on the regular 83+ yet. Theres still a lot of messed up bugs that you may find in the screenie itself. I Should hopefully finish debuging by the end of this week.

I ve been lately thinking about making the project open source, so that i can optimize and add as many ideas as possible. What do you guys think?

W!

I tried the moving demo and its unbelivable!
The tank moves very smoothy!!!

I have a couple of questions though:

Is the enviroment going to be destructable ( I hope so

)?

Are you planning on releasing a shooting demo because if you were and it could blow up stuff I would download that in a heart beat (Well maybe not that fast but as soon as possible)

Is there going to be a mini map?

Is the tank going to move in 8 directions?

But so far this game rocks and I cant believe Tankers 89 is comming to the ti-83 plus (SE)!

PS: I hope there is a map editor or external levels

That does look awesome!

It does seem though that some of the sprites are ripped off from duck's zelda demo.

Yes this game is looking very nice!

lloydkirk: i think they were just ripped from original nintendo zelda

Actually tankers 68k use Zelda Link Awakening sprites so I bet he did the same so the 83+ version look true to the 68k version

And it's so sw33t!!!

Well it isnt right now but, it might if i actally kill all the bugs and am still in the mood for some more

Are you planning on releasing a shooting demo because if you were and it could blow up stuff I would download that in a heart beat (Well maybe not that fast but as soon as possible)

Soon. maybe in a couple of months provided i get the time (which i probably wont since my school start in 2 days)

Is there going to be a mini map?

Nope. Sadly the Ti83+ lcd sucks so bad that to actually see anything on the screen i had to comprmise on the health bar and the mini map. Maybe I could make a options screen that shows the radar view(minimap) and the health bar

Is the tank going to move in 8 directions?

Yes once i get a 4 directional version completly done

If you guys didnt mave that much fun with the first screenie heres a second one (still a bit choppy and too dark) ->

WOOT! That's awesome! I can't even think of any more suggestions at this point.

Anybody know a any animated screenshot capture program other than calc capture & Vti capture

Jim e · Post by **Jim e** » Sat 16 Apr, 2005 5:01 pm

Well I made an 8 way mapper for RGP, seeing the quality of this I think it's alright for you to use. Works kinda like dwedits except it's for grey. I'm still working bugs though, if I could just concentrate and get done.

Nice work man, soon the 83(+) will own 89s.

Looks cool, would be better with a smooth scroller and the 83 already pwnz the 89

There is TIshot and hopefully later Pindur TI, but TIshot is very hard to use.

As for the game, once the Revolution Grayscale Package will be released (as for now I dunno when since it hasnt been updated much lately), will you switch to it so the game will run a lot faster?

I think he is using it , I can't remember.
