I'm trying to run pacman (http://www.ticalc.org/archives/files/fileinfo/302/30255.html)on my ti-89 titanium,
I have installed ghostbuster
I have installed the HW3 patch
all of the pacman files are archived

it says it is a no-stub game so I haven't installed a shell (btw. which one is the best)

when I ran the Hw3 patch it said done
I ran ghostb(pacman) and it said non algebraic variable in expression
When I run pacman() it says "divide by zero" at the top of the screen and freezes up

thanks in advance

hmm it still doesn't work...thanks anyway
after I reset it by taking out the backup battery, I put in the hw3 patch and it said "error: unsupported AMS version" at the bottom of the screen

I'm running
OS version 3.01
Hardware version 3

thanks, I'm really looking forward to a game of PacMan, it'd better be good

Well youll need to use hw3patch v 1.01 for AMS 3.01. hw3patch v 1.02 is for 3.10 :) I dont see why pacman wont work, it seems to look fine :-/

hw3patch 1.02 WILL work on AMS 3.01. It's back-compatible to all the versions.

When you have to reset it from that, you don't have to take ANY batteries out. Just press 2nd+left+right+on at the same time, in that order.

From the readme:

"Q: Why won't the program run?
A: You most likely do not have pacmlvls.pcm and pacmhscr.pcm in the current folder. If this does not fix the problem, archive all pacman files, and check to make sure you have at least 35K of free RAM."
