I didnt know distributing romdumps was illegal. I thought if everyone here including tighta55 captain K up there used them that were legal.
They're not illegal to have, they're illegal to distribute. That's the difference. The RIAA and MPAA go after people who distribute media much more than those who download it, I suspect. And TI community sites have gotten shut down in the past for knowingly or unknowingly hosting ROMs; ticalc.org has an extremely strict rule about it for that reason.
@adamac: Let me know if you get a chance to try that.
k im in the \asm\source file path and theres two already on it. what are those for?
mybad, like i said, I didnt know.

You can compile a TI83+ program with TIC83+ like this
Code: TIC83+ source.z80
Here's a test program...
Code: #include tic83plus.inc
.org $9d95
.db $BB,$6D
ld hl,hellotxt
bcall(_puts)
ret
hellotxt:
.db "Hello World!",0
"hello world" was in the tutorials that i went through and i copied it. worked.

Those are just sample programs for you to play around with, but it seems like you already figured that out. 
try something a bit more complicated?
Code: #include "dcs7.inc"
.org $9d95
.db $bb,$6d
xor d
ret
jr nc,Start
.dw 0
.dw 0
.dw 0
.dw 0
Start:
call OpenGUIStack
ld hl,MyStack
call PushGUIStacks
ld hl,0
call GUIMouse
Quit:
call 4000h
call CloseGUIStack
ret
MyStack:
.dw 13
.db LargeWin
.db %11100000
.db %10110000
.db %10010000
.db %10010000
.db %11110000
.db "Test",0
.dw 10
.db WinButtons
.db %00100000
.dw 0
.dw 0
.dw Quit
Endofstack:
.dw $FFFF
Very nice, although why did you do call $4000 instead of call ResetAppPage?
just wrote it off the top of my head, couldn't remember the actual name for it

I keep the equates for Saferam1, getkey, gbuf, mouseapprest (or whatever you call it), and _puts in my head
I particularly remember $4000 cuz its appstart and I make more apps than anything

Ah, that makes sense.
@Adamac: Perhaps you could write a program than asks the user to press a number key, 1 through 9, then displays the number that they choose? That would be a simple program that might be challenging for a beginner.

You're off by two. The program does indeed get loaded to $9D95, but you have to account for the AsmPrgm token ($BB, $6D): .org $9D93.
Edit: That's the compiled AsmPrgm token (.db t2ByteTok, tasmCmp).
realized that after i posted
I was braindead for a half a sec there

oooorrr. you could try writing a program to move a sprite around the screen using the arrows key.Then you can build and extend upon it working toward the goal of making a game
Its just a fancy word for an images.
Sprites are made like this
Code: Smile:
.db %00111100
.db %01000010
.db %10100101
.db %10000001
.db %10100101
.db %10011001
.db %01000010
.db %00111100
The 1's say that the pixel is on, the 0's mean the pixel is off. In the case of this sprite, the image is a smiley face.
Here's an example of how to use this sprite:
Code: .org $9d93
.db $bb,$6d
ret ; Just gonna use the ion header for this
jr nc,Start
.db "Test",0
ld a,0 ;The x position
ld l,0 ;The y position
ld b,8 ;The height
ld ix,Smile
call iPutSprite ;draw the sprites
bcall(grbufcpy) ;or you can use call iFastcopy, just updating the screen
ret
ok i understand the pixels, what i dont understand how to make the sprite.
Either one (or ideally, both) would be good for a beginner, imho.
You use a sprite making program. There are some oncalc ones as well as computer ones.
Alternatively, you could ask The Hex God (Sonlen) to convert the sprites.
