I would like everyone to help me welcome Jeff Wilcox to TI-FW, his project being Corridor 99.
Once he gets his site set up, I will see about posting the link to it in here. Make sure everyone gives him a warm welcome.  |

He's talking a bit about Corridor 99 in the FAT Engine forum, e.g. http://tichessteamhq.yuku.com/topic/4679

He is getting married relatively soon, and is getting things set up for that. He might be a little bit before actually becoming overly busy here. ^^;;

Better late than never!
Sorry for not replying right away. Yeah, I'm starting to think taking my girl to the Chapel O' Love and getting married by Elvis in Vegas might have been a better idea... I had no idea how complicated getting married was. Anyway, I am humbled by my reception into this forum. Corridor 99 has become kind of like Duke Nukem Forever and I'm aiming to change that. So here's the current skippy: *25 Levels out of the 42 planned are done. *All but three enemies are completed, the last three all being bosses that have special non-standard rendering (one of them is actually a wall) *All weapons are done save one. *All items are done. *All objects are finally done. *134 wall textures are done... maybe a few more possible. To do... *Separation of cinematics/multiplayer/single player code *Dynamic loading of that code *Finish remaining maps *Finish remaining cinematics *Make CTF maps So now, I will just keep chipping away. -Jeff |

wow I like the TI-92 style look, that made me remember how 3 years ago I had my IRC client (mIRC) setup so the text fonts are the same than on the TI-83+ and the background is the same than my calculator screen
I am happy the game is back under developpement too, I remember seeing the news article about the demo on ticalc.org 4 years ago. I couldn't play it though because I always had full of issues running 68k programs in emulator (always got full of errors even if I installed it correctly) no matter the AMS used and couldn't play at least 90% of the games for these models. However, in the past 2 years my graphing calculator collection increased from 3 TI calculators to 19 Casio and TI calculators (still very far behind Tifreak8x and BrandonW) and among these there's a TI-89 Titanium and an old TI-92 |

Glad you like the site
Yeah, I am somewhat of a calculator collector myself, though I still lack the Titanium. The biggest problem with the currently released version of Corridor99 is it's ridiculous RAM consumption. This was because of the way I was compressing files within the data99 variable. Basically, I was trying to decompress an extremely large record of data instead of parsing it up into smaller manageable chunks. Often, I would do this to ultimately grab a small patch, or paragraph of text, so it wasn't too memory efficient. Solving this issue wasn't as easy as it sounds, but its fixed now. |
