Can anyone explain why the values in the _speed_table were chosen. int _speed_table[]= { 0b00000000, /* speed 0 */ 0b00010001, 0b01001001, 0b01010101, 0b01010111, 0b01110111, 0b01111111, 0b11111111 /* speed 7 */ }; Can they be change to a linear (...)

|

I just tried unarchiving IC 3.1 on my 486 at home, running Win 3.1, and Win 32s 1.25.141.0 (or so the win32s.ini file says). I'm having the same problem I had before, where all of the files have an "Inflating: ...." message in front of them. My (...) (29 years ago, 17-Mar-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

i think it would be good if beta users cc'ed their bugs along the handyboard list--I am interested in hearing how it's working but don't have time to bang on it directly. Perhaps others feel the same way. -Fred (29 years ago, 17-Mar-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

(...) I've tried unarchiving the program a couple times, on a couple different machines, which had a couple different copies of IC, with the same results.

(...) I just double-checked and downloaded IC 3.1 for Windows from our site, and had no such problem de-archiving it. All the files were fine, and IC runs fine straight out of the zip, at least on a Windows 95 machine. Has anyone else seen this (...) (29 years ago, 16-Mar-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

|

(...) IC 3.1 certainly doesn't use that much memory! IC is a 32-bit application, which prevents running under vanilla Win 3.1, but it theoretically could/should work under win32s. We haven't yet tried it here (your feedback is the first we've (...) (29 years ago, 16-Mar-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Has anyone tried running IC 3.1 for Win 95 on a win32s Windows 3.1 system? I njust tried it out, and the program complains of insufficient memory - on an 8 meg system, with no other applications running. Anyone have any idea what's wrong? (29 years ago, 16-Mar-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

(...) Yes, and speed control is built in to the Interactive C motor function. motor(0, 100) turns on motor 0 at full speed; motor(0, 50) is half speed, etc. While we're on the topic, I am considering changing the speed argument, because in actuality (...)
