Posted 07 May 2006 - 05:56 AM

I recently converted all my games to .G1M format so that they work on the fx-9860 calculator. However, some of my games have some 'bugs' now because of the faster CPU speed and slightly different commands in the fx-9860.

The two games I especially would like to optimised are:

- Star Wars Empire

- MiniGames

Most of the 'bugs' are too do with 'human reflexes/reaction' tests, i.e. the target times in my games are too hard to attain now because of the faster CPU. I don't think it will be too hard to fix the problems.

Would any owner of a fx-9860 calculator like to help me optimise some of my games?
I will glady acknowledge your help on my website.

You can contact me by email casiokingdom[at]hotmail.com or PM me.

Regards

I hit 'PM' button and i got an error message...

I will send an email when i am finished with the programs.

I have some exciting new game developments (for the 9860) coming soon! Never before seen in calculator games!!

Also, why are the files as such: EMPIRE.G1M, minigame.g1r ? why not both the same format (.g1m) ?

Thanks alias and CFX master for your interest.

@alias, I greatly appreciate your help. Some of the games are in different formats because i'm in the process of converting them all to .G1M. Many people were having problems with the .g1r format since the Fa-124 that came with the 9860 doesn't support it.
.G1M is the correct format.
You can download all of my programs in .G1M format here: http://ck.earthforge.../ckprograms.zip

BTW, I have an fx9860 emulator from Planet Casio (french) but it is still too slow

===EDIT===
Alias, do you have a fx9860 calculator? You have only listed the CFX-9850 as your 'calculators'

Yes, but I think most people find .G1M easier to use.

Does anyone know if the Australian version of FA-124 supports .g1r files?

Sorry, didn't see that. Yes, i do have a 9860. I have just added it to my 'calculators' list. Thanks.

Opt Update: I have been working on MINIGAMES, not EMPIRE yet, but i think ive worked out the algorithm just right for minigames. It gives you about enough time to get your finger off the button, etc. I have also slowed down intro screens. Hopefully, MINIGAMES will be finished soon, and then i will start on EMPIRE.

Thankyou guest :).
But there are a few more things to change as well as just that.

I think I have 3 'challenges' that needs fixing with regards to the times.

Also, there seems to be some problems with 'loops' when converting to the fx9860. Eg. the Jabba the Hutt screen doesn't loop so only flashes and then you are left with a blank screen.

Any updates, Alias and Ox?

If FA-124 conversion with more than 1 file doesn't work properly, then maybe my
maths programs in progs.g1m at:
http://members.lycos...gramsindex.html
are affected.

Is there anyone with a 9860 who would test whether they have been converted properly ?

Well, it's a good thing all my programs come in one file.

BTW, you can download a fx9860 emulator which is pretty good (the speed is different than the actual calc, but i think everything else is the same)

I would like to bring up this topic again.

alias4399 and Oxinabox haven't come back to me regarding optimising my games Empire and MiniGames for the fx9860.

Does anyone else want to help?
