    Yes!  That was the exact same for me.  Ha, bill hicks, that last bit got me !   

    Yeah these days i comment my code properly, i try to do it tidily, and it mostly works.  That said, I'm working on a game right now, that up to press had one enemy per screen.  I got the idea from someone else to put multiple enemies into some screens, so i tried it ..... before, we had a bird that pooped fire onto the player and the fire spread over the ground ... when i attempted to combine that with some spiders ... ha .... the bird turned into a low-flying spider.  Turned out i was using the same sprite numbers.  

    Honestly I like the idea of flying, fire-pooping spiders 🪽🔥💩🕷️

    I have considered making a coupler for the original TI controllers as I do have a pair of them, but I wasn't sure if anyone would want them..  

    Double the painsticks, double the pleasure? ;-)

  3. @chris36, I swapped out the 32mb cf card you had for the 256mb cf card i use in my nanopeb.

    I also used the same regulated 5 volt power adapter from the nanopeb.

    All i am getting is a solid color screen without making it to the TI title screen (No screaming sound).

    No idea where to go from here, but if i had to guess, i'd say either the capacitor by the power plug is bad somehow (no idea how to check) or the rom got static zapped.

    The cf card will probably be kept around as a backup for my nanopeb.

  4. Not everything in TI Basic needs to be compiled, but some games really do benefit.
    Even just making minor adjustments to make them work in XB/RXB helps sometimes, like the original "maze of grog" in BASIC is, arguably playable, but in XB it is 10x better.

    I never liked Parsec. Please don't kill me over and over. 

     

    Sorry I don't know how the quote got there. Can't delete it.

    You probably misclicked the quote button. Happens to me too sometimes.
