Metroid Pi

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.

Gah!

I recently picked up this game again, and its better than I remember! BUT i don't know if its me, but I can't escape sector H! Is there some secret passage I'm missing? You don't have to give it away entirely, but i've been trying for a while… just a hint maybe?

I've been watching that animation for the past 5 minutes… it makes me want to play it so much! :)

I have a Casio fx-9860G AU calculator, but no TI calcs. It's capable of quite a lot… but nothing that matches the speed and graphics of this game. Just "Wow!" — didn't realise a calculator was capable of this!

Graph or Home?
dino sawyer dino sawyer 06 Nov 2011 03:43

I watched the animation and it has the coolest little extras like the way text rights and the way the game windows open and close. One thing i was wondering is how it has both Graph screen and home screen characteristics at the same time. The way the windows (like "Game Saved") came up and went away requires pixel specific movement, which means graph screen. At the same time, there was the 8x16 block-like way the objects moved, which means the Home screen. I would like to know how this is, because i can't think of a way to get that effect.

It's a quirk of the Text( command. On the 83+ and above, it uses the home screen font if you have four arguments, and the first one is a number less than zero. If you do, the second and third arguments will provide the row/column numbers, and everything after that will show up in the display.

That's wild, i love how the 83 just works through glitches and syntax flaws. My brother has an 89 and you can't leave off the closing parenthesis.

Well, adding a negative number to the Text( command as the first parameter isn't really a glitch or flaw, it's built-in.

About that TI-89…
Is that a computer or a calculator? I thought they only made calculators up to a TI-84+.

Ti-89s are still being made, just not as often used because of its immense power and it being banned on the SAT.

Here’s my problem: I have no cable, so I can only program in BASIC, and I have to manually program everything. Currently, I have EXODUS, PORTAL, and both INSANITY and MADNESS of the Absolute series. But it requires mind-numbing hours of work, programming it all in, and spell-checking afterwords, hoping I don't get caught by my folks… But I digress. When I program in Metroid Pi, it says there's an error in ZZTEXT, but it might be linked to ZZINTRO…idk. help me please? Also, when I work on Metroid Pure, it says ERR;DIM, I think, something like that. And yes, I have tried that new Metroid Pure that's optimized into one program, too. Help a poor guy?

Help

Make sure you have all you stat plots off and ten it should work. If it still doesn't work, Archive our program(s) so it will be safe, reset the ram and then unarchive it and it should work

Re: Help: grouping
Trenly Trenly 14 Jan 2015 20:05

Group all of your programs by typing, 2nd,+,8 and then enter. Scrolling to programs and selecting all of them. Then reset ram, go back to groups, go to ungroup and select your new group, then hit enter.

He needs help in relation to ungrouping the game Metroid Pi. He is not replying to anybody, so it is fine that he posted his problem here.

That is because it is a program archive page. If it were a normal thread it likely would have not been able to be considered a "new post" or "non-reply".

You should check out the errors page.

I believe that your screen isn't showing everything the way it should, instead I think it should say this:
