The executable, compiled from the newest code files (r788), will start the emulator with seemingly all features except that the skin image is not properly loaded. All the dimensions and screen properties are correct, but the actual image is only drawn in a tiny frame in the top left.

To be precise: a 16x16 square in the perfect center of the skin's image is drawn into the top left of the program frame. This behavior is consistent across all of the preinstalled skins I've tried. See attachment for a screenshot with ti84p2.skn loaded.

The 16x16 part of the skin image is in fact the pixel-perfect center (I've measured in gimp). Not sure if this might help.

I compiled the binary via ./configure and then make -j6. The executable that I launched resided in gui/, not sure if it's supposed to be like that.

Anyway, I want to give a huge thanks to the developers of this project for this stable and incredibly handy tool that have empowered lots of TI calc developers to do marvelous things. When I saw the link port feature that even allowed LINKING YOUR SPEAKERS! I was blown away. Again, huge thanks to the developers, and best luck fixing this issue.

    Hello,

    We are glad to hear your kind feedback :)

    You are using a very broken version, it is my fault, I started to migrate tilem2 to GTK3 without doing a dedicated branch. Therefore the current "latest" svn version is not something you should use.
    More generally, it is usually not a good idea to rely on the latest development version as it is evolving (ok not so much lately) and potentially broken.

    Please use svn commit 758 instead which is the current "stable" version or download from here : https://sourceforge.net/projects/tilem/files/tilem/2.0/ (or ticalc).

    Best regards.

    Thibault

    Thank you for the explanation. I'll just use the revision 758 then :)
