Doesn't work on classic nspire ? #5

Hello, I've just tried this awesome emulator on my "new" nspire, and it seems that it's not working (at least for me) on my clickpad cas nspire, I mean, after launching the file named "nspire-z80", the extenstion .8rom is added but when I'm launching my rom, it says that it cannot read this type of file extension. That's why I'm asking if a classic nspire compatibility is worked on or not ? Thanks in advance :)

I'd be surprised to see that specific error; however, the code uses several CX-specific features and definitely will not work as-is on a greyscale Nspire. I had thought all greyscale Nspires had the built-in emulator and therefore supporting it in mine would be redundant. It would be feasible to add classic support, but it wouldn't be super easy; it would require changes in the code for timers and interrupts, and a minor change to the LCD code.

Ooooh I see, never mind, tbh I need it for Friday, and it's totally impossible, and it's probably not worth it to spend your time for a few persons, thank you very much for your answer though, I can't code so it's not possible for me to port it to greyscale nspire, oh and by the way, your video player is awesome :3 Have a nice day !

I'd love to try and port this to a greyscale nspire, but I'll have to learn this coding first Edit: also, my greyscale nspire does recognise the .8rom extension, but it freezes after loading it
