We're glad you came by, but you might find what you're looking for elsewhere.
TI-Basic Developer is not the site it once was. While its information on commands and other calculator features remains almost second-to-none, its forum, archives, and even hosting service, Wikidot, have been decaying for years. The calculator community would love to see what you're working on, or help you in your next coding adventure, but TI-Basic Developer is no longer the place to do it.
Instead, you should head over to Cemetech (primarily American) or TI-Planet (primarily international). Both are active, well-established forums with their own archives, chatrooms, reference material, and abundant coding tools and resources. We'll see you there, we hope.

Hello everybody,
I hope that's the right place to post my questions - otherwise sorry!
I decided to try some games (Robot War and Nárkemen) on a TI-82 Stats so I connected the device with my PC via TI Connect. The program won't recognize the calculator as a TI-82 but as a TI-83. As a consequence I'm not able to copy the files over as they are deemed "incompatible". Is there anything that can be done about that?
I also tried to start the games in Wabbitemu (with the ROM-file from TIRoms) but here I can't even open the file itself in the emulator (he gives me a "A problem with Wabbitemu prevented the file from getting sent").
I'm rather new in the fascinating world of calculator gaming and programming so I'm very grateful for every help. Thank you! :)
The reason the TI-82 stats is recognized as a TI-83 is simple: The TI-82 stats is pretty much the exact same as the US TI-83, thus you can only use TI-83 BASIC software. I do not remember if the 82 stats allows the execution of ASM code or not- Are the files you are trying to send over TI-83 assembly?
Double post, sorry.
Hi,
thank you for your reply!
Both are assembly games, yes.
Anyway, as the software isn't able to detect the device properly, I just purchased a "real" TI-82 (used).
I still don't understand why Wabbitemu won't accept these files though…
Thanks for your help.
