So im making a game on my ti 84 plus ce t, and basically i need cool sprites, for water, mountains, forests, etc. now i use a # for the water, a ^ for the mountains and an F for the forests. Do you have any suggestions(i dont wanna upload any sprites)
Before you get too far into the project, I suggest looking at ICE Compiler, which allows you to compile TI Basic-like programs to assembly (much like Axe Parser for the 84+). I've heard that it's pretty easy to learn, so I suggest giving that a try too, as one of the perks of it is easy sprite creation and implementation.
If you don't wanna go down that road, could you please give us some examples of sprites you would include in this game?
EDIT: Note that you can use characters that cannot be accessed normally on the calculator by making the program on an IDE and then sending it to your calc. I suggest Source Coder 3 to do this, which contains an IDE (for multiple calculator languages) and an emulator named jsTIfied.
I don't recommend ICE for new programmers, at all. It is an advanced language, and you need to have a grasp of (somewhat) complicated things like pointers. I suggest sticking to TI-Basic.
You should look at text sprites, they are very useful for games like this.
For a forest, I recommend M and ^ (interspersed would be cool, but only using one is ok, too.) for the mountains, # for the water (sendable with TI-Connect, or SC3, linked above.), and I don't know what would be better for the forests.
I've never programmed in ICE, so I just assumed it would be simple. My mistake :P
Text sprites don't work on CE's, as they utilize the pixels that are on the 84+ calculators and below. Well, they 'work', but they can be super difficult which will most likely result in a bunch of random lines.
I was talking about this flavor of text sprites:
)() -> fish
()( -> fish
:( -> sad
:) -> happy
I saw some things on this websites ascii codes (cant copy paste links)but i dont know how to type them(on computer or on calculator) is there a place where i can copy paste those? (Here they are images)
Here is the full table of Ascii characters.
