I am working a quick dart game for TI-83 and 83+. I just have on problem in making the game. Everything works all I need is a dart graphic. I can't draw a dart, especially a 3D looking one. I was just wondering if anyone could lend me a graphic of there's? or the line stats to plot it?

i personally (this is JUST an OPINION!) think the 4th one looks too much like a rocket, and less like a dart...

#4 cut the tail off and add #3's tail

might look more real

I'm going with the smallest one at the top. Thanks. And yeah, in BASIC, download the "Demo" on my site. All I have to do now is add the dart throwing graphic, then I'll be done, I'm proud of myself cause I made the game in 2 days!

I'm not going with the actual throwing of the dart graphic anymore. There are too many possiblites to plot out each possible and draw it. The prog would be too big right now its only at about 2.5K but with that, it'll be much bigger. But download the complete version. Its still cool, and so is minesweeper. If you do the sound thing on the radio it sounds really cool. Because it makes a blowing up sound when you hit a mine! Surprised

You don't have to program every posibility, just use a loop to move the graphic from the starting position to where it hits the board.

A //target x positoin
B // target y position
C // current x position (in hand at beginning)
D //current y position (in hand at beginning)
Repeat A=B and C=D
//erase dart graphic here if nescesarry, make sure it doesn't leave a trail anyway
D-(B<D to C-(A<C)+(A>C->C
D-(B<D)+(B>D->D
//draw graphic at new position here
End

You could also move the dart in a big curve using something like this:

For(X,C,A,1-2(A<C
//erase dart
D+Sin(.1X->D //change the .1 to make it so the dart doesn't go up, down, up, down,up down etc, but just up and then down a bit, this would depend on your window settings
//draw dart
End

hmm... confused I am by the first suggestion, but the second one actually makes sense... I'm gonna try it, but I don't know if it'll work because, I was gonna include the dart using lines, so I don't think it would work that way because I don't know how to use a pic as a sprite. I can't move it around...

if you send the pics and prgm to me i can convert it to lines and pts for you (about one to two hours to fix that) and then you can use that code he gave you,
if you want the help send it and a e-mail to Watchfordanomes@att.net

thanks, I've sent it to you.

you would have to change a few things to get a moving dart, like a power meter and a updown meter rather than a line meter and a right left meter rather than the line.

oh... okay, if you can, do it, if you can't its okay, I'll just make the game into a tournament game where you comepete to beat other dart throwers in tournament mode and add a two player mode.

i could do it but right now i am working on some other prgms, (like 2 RPGS i think but one guy hasn't talked to me in days so i guess he gave up, also a turn-based game) but other than that i can change the things, i would be 1000k more with the baars i think at most.
