I found a web page that deals with programming the rcx, scout and microscout
in a very uncommon way. Go this site:
http://www.asahi-net.or.jp/~qx5k-iskw/lego/
and under the ¡ SONY Pocket Station ‚Æ‹Y‚ê‚é section, click the last link.
I would recommend running the page through alta vista babel fish though,
since the page is in japenese, so you can find it easy. The link i told you
to click on should take you a page about programming the micro scout with
sony pocket station. the other links on the main page all lead to other
pages about mindstorms and programming.
Any way, if anyone out there owns a pocket station and a micro scout, i
would deffinatly check this site out. I have downloaded the program to my
pocketstation and tested it. Everything works and is pretty easy to use.
You will need a zip program that can handle .lzh files to unzip the
downloads containing the pocketstation programs. You will also need a
program called psx game edit to turn the unziped .mcx files into .gme
files(dexdrive files). Psx game edit can be downloaded for free here:
http://www.moberg-dybdal.dk/psxge/
After getting the .mcx files turned into .gme files, you can dump them to a
memory card, and then use your playstation's memory card manager to copy
them over to your pocket station. Even if you do not own a pocket station,
there is still some useful non-pocketstation stuff to be had on this page.
Enjoy.
