TI Freak Probe Posted: 20 Jan 2005 11:23 GMT Total Posts: Edit | No. The format from the 83 and 86 are slightly different. This slight difference causes an incompatibility with the 2 calcs. The program, however, can easily be ported to the 86 (BASIC, asm is a bit harder to port) and then played on it.
The only program that I know of that is supposed to play between different calcs is a tetris game, though I am unsure if it does work, since I have never tested it's multiplayer option. |

The 86 user will actually have an advantage because the program runs faster on the 86. So you can get lines and dump them on the 83+ user's calc faster.
TI-86 and the TI-83 are not compatible in any sence besides this 1 game. |
