Wow - can you imagine if the simulator could be hooked up with MLCad and
LDraw?  Then you could build a robot with a complex structure, program it,
and have it run around a virtual world, all rendered with POV-Ray!  Man, who
need reality after that?

I'm thinking about a very look-alike simulator, but then based on the
firmware 2.0, so it can run NQC programs.

What do you mean by a "codebase" ?

Yes that's quiet what I'm thinking of.

If you could give me some links, I would be very pleased.

(...) Woaaahhhh there - just one moment - that's a *REALLY* big step from where we are. OK - so I buy the idea of an RCX simulator. * You could write one that emulated the RCX at the Lego Byte-Code level. That's really easy - I could do it in a (...) (22 years ago, 13-Sep-02, to lugnet.robotics)
  Re: RCX simulator ?
 
Since when can Pov ray render an image of any useful size in realtime, or something approaching realtime? I haven't tested on my XP1600+, but my Duron 800 took a few seconds to render a 640 x 480 image - the minimum I consider useful for determining (...) (22 years ago, 13-Sep-02, to lugnet.robotics)
