My TI-99/4A screen shots
These are some pictures I made on my TI-99/4a and converted to png format using MESS. (Many thanks to the MESS guys for getting the 360k support in there, especially since all of my disks were 360k created with the CorpComp disk controller!)
Many of these were started in Draw and Plot, which was 2-color only, and finished in TI-artist which allowed 16 colors.
First, a couple of images that I believe I made using the Super Sketch
graphics tablet. That thing was a piece of crap. It would only save to
cassette tape even if you had a floppy drive! I somehow converted these
from tape to a TI-Artist disk file.
A spacy scene created using elements copied from existing graphics.
My TI-99/4a
I had this crazy idea about a story called "Space Havoc".
The space ship Havoc!
The bridge of the space ship Havoc. Also the bridge of the space ship
Survey-5.
A bizarre cityscape. If I recall this was created by loading a program
in as an image and then editing it a bit.
A happy 4th of july!
A space shuttle going berserk. Also an older b&w version. And another
version.
I believe I was not having a good day.
A couple of colored in graphics from Draw and Plot.
Variations on a car graphic from Draw and Plot.
Another edited draw and plot graphic. If I recall this car wasn't supposed
to be in this image.
Colorizaion and doodles on another Draw and Plot image.
Fortunately this guy is not such a pain in my ass any more.
A mock up grade book graphic.
A zoom in on one of the cities in the TI-Artist startup screen. Also
a Star Trek image that I think I imported from some other system.
A couple of slightly modified Draw and Plot X-mas graphics.
Some robots. "Rewind", a Transformer, Marvin the Paranoid Android from
the TV version of the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, and some made up
Transformer. The disk the picture of Marvin was on had a defect.
Some program generated art.
More program generated art.
Some text-based program generated art.
The TI-Artist boot screen and my crapy hack job of it. There never
actually was any copy prevention on this software, I was just playing around.
And I never gave people copies. It is a good thing there was never any
copy prevention as I can now run it in MESS.
TI artist main menu, and another draw and plot image.
Just a screen shot displaying a Music Maker file I wrote to show how
old this was.
A couple more miscellaneous pictures.
Another happy 4th of July. Oh, no! What's this? It's a missile and
it's commin' right for us!
Kerplowie!
I miss the days when all drawing programs were simple and not so Photo Shop like.
Oh, I just had to throw these in. The TI-99/4A version of the Hitchhikers
Guide to the Galaxy and Planetfall. Not much to look at, but truckloads
of fun.
