  Programming, NQC and the RCX
 
K folks, I have a programming problem :( Here's the issue: I set an array of 16 (go figure) and I have a few misceelaneous int values (4 thus far) and I try to set up another aray of 16 and it gives me something equalling an out of memory error!

  Re: ProjectX thoughts and beyond
 
(...) Absolutely. There will NEVER be an audience fee for rtlToronto events. It's a hassle I don't want to deal with. But a contest participation fee, well, yeah, that actually would be kinda cute. Maybe a real informal thing, sort of like the (...) (23 years ago, 10-Jan-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

Only people with competing robots should pay that 5-10 bucks. 3800 does sound like a nice idea! ummm... (...) (23 years ago, 10-Jan-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  faster than a 48x CD re-writer
 
WELL, this just in. I know that many people are working fast and furious on x-robots. i also know that When you build a robot (for speed) , you have no idea how your robot compares. SO For all the lurkers and secret robot builders, I would like to (...) (23 years ago, 10-Jan-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: ProjectX thoughts and beyond
 
(...) I think the idea of an entrance fee prevents (well discourages) the "lurkers" from participating. And it certainly discourages the less established robotic builders from entering also. But, on the other hand, I can see Rob's view.... spending (...) (23 years ago, 10-Jan-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) WELL, I'd go in. sure, I'd toss in 5 ot 10 bucks. What ever we do, it should be a low key kind of event. once you introduce prizes then the rule of engagement become a LOT more important. and you would need official impartial Judges. AND if I (...)

  Re: Train 3 Height and Width

Most people don't build over top of the track that much anyways-at least not in train2-train3 will probably be different. But I don't bother with (...)

(...) Nice, Calum. Tempts me to put my S100 on a stand in low rez mode and shoot 64MB of frames one every 10 seconds or so :) I'll have to build the furniture store that way... Jeff E (23 years ago, 9-Jan-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

  High speed timelapse
 
Hi folks, Here's something fun to check out: (URL) MPEG1) I videotaped myself building a factory building in my train3 layout for about 30 minutes (I could only find a blank 60 minute Hi8 tape, which equates out to 30 minutes of Digital8).
