+hloberg Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 I have started filling up my CF7 card with, well, just about everything I have. But one of my pet peeves is having the software and no manual. of the 70+ games I have loaded on the card I am down to just a few I can't find a manual for and like the game. Most are little independent games that, probably, didn't have a manual t begin with. Before I make my own manual I was wondering if anyone happens to have a copy. Here is the list: Driving Demon Tile Breaker (breakout clone) War zone 2 (or whatever version) Rotor Raider Astro Fighter Water Works TI Scrabble (missing on CYC) Q-Bert I have looked in WHTECH, my CYC disk and the web.

+Ksarul Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 I'm not sure there ever was a manual for TI Scrabble--especially if the one you're looking at is the code that was eventually supposed to be released as an official TI cartridge (PHM3212).

+hloberg Posted August 26, 2014 Author Share Posted August 26, 2014 Since TI looks like they never created a manual for their Scrabble cartridge here is the cover to the one I'm creating. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+hloberg Posted September 2, 2014 Author Share Posted September 2, 2014 (edited) 4a flyer manual.pdf Don't know if there is a good manual for '4A Flyer' but it was easy enough to create a clean one from the notes that came with the disk. If you have a clean PDF of '4A Flyer' post it here, otherwise, here is one I created. Edited September 2, 2014 by hloberg 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+hloberg Posted October 11, 2014 Author Share Posted October 11, 2014 (edited) I have one. Can scan it this afternoon evening (did not notice that it is already almost 6pm.) Actually, a good scan of the front cover might be enough as I was able to get the documentation, that is, if the book isn't too different from what I created. what I do still need is: program copy of Comprodine's Backstein, warzone I & II and any others that someone has. also docs for Titanium, Astro Fighter, Water Works, Protector and Topper. Also, if anyone has some other really obscure scanned manual and program I would like that too. When I'm done I'll post the game manuals I have (that aren't from the CYC) in one big zip.

PeBo Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 Resurrecting an old thread again as a result of resurrecting an old favorite again. Have been playing Scrabble again recently (TI's is a terrific computer version - especially considering the limited resolution for a board game), but can't for the life of me figure out how to swap tiles. hloberg's terrific manual outlines how to do it with a real Scrabble set, but not in the software. I seem to remember there is a way to do it though (and I can't imagine the programmer's would have missed this inherent part of playing Scrabble.) Any help would be appreciated.

+Schmitzi Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 Hi, not sure if it is the same version, but maybe this here helps: ***************************************** THE GAME OF TI-SCRABBLE ***************************************** STEPS TO LOAD GAME------------------1> CHOOSE EDITOR/ASSEMBLER OPTION 52> LOAD "SCRA" ---------------------------------------- GAME OPTIONS------------------1 SCRAMBLES LETTERS IN CURRENT RACK2 TO SEE SQUARE POINT VALUE3 TO SEE LETTER VALUES4 TO SEE LETTER DISTRIBUTION5 TO PASS TURN6 TO CHANGE LETTERS IN RACK (LOSE TURN)7 PUT WORD HORIZONTALLY ON BOARD8 TO CANCEL9 PUT WORD VERTICALLY ON BOARD0 TO ASSIGN BLANK A LETTER SPELL OUT THE WORD YOU WISH TO USE, ANDPRESS ENTER.

PeBo Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 First set of instructions are perfect. All the other commands listed also work, so definitely the same version. The manual in your second message is an outstanding facsimile of a TI manual, but missed all the number key commands. Thanks for filling them in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Schmitzi Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 . yes, I extracted the numbers from an old ARK-file Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+adamantyr Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 I have all of the Comprodine's manuals for those (War Zone I and II, Backsteine), I'll locate them and see if I can get you some scans! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
