Animation Question

Lately, during chemistry class, I've been trying to make some animations on my calculator using the recall pic function.  Do you know how many pictures the calculator can store, and if you can make animations that are longer than 5 seconds without repeating?

Only 0 through 10.  If you use a hex editor, you can make more pics though I beleive.

If you're only after the thrills of making an animation, there's an app out there on ticalc.org ...

Re: Animation Question

I don't know, the reviews for that doesn't sound too good.

Besides, I don't even have the usb connector.

Re: Animation Question

Ti's aren't really fit for animations, the screen is just too small, and it's too black and white ish. The ram is also waaay to small
And basic is just too slow. If you make it like

 recallpic 1 
clrdraw 
recallpic 2
enz... 

then you have 10 possible frames, which already take up 1/3 of the calcs RAM, and it's flickery too.
