Hi!
When I first fired up IC 4 it was wiithout the expansion board, and the HB
booted fine. I suppose you could save some memory and processor time if you
didn't load the expansion board libraries.) The list of files it downloads
seem to be in lib_hb_exp.ic. I think if you just remove/comment out the
"#use" of things items that are on the expansion board you should be ok.
I have one question though, the library for the lego sensors doesn't seem to
be here. can I use the .icb from IC 3.2, or does it need to be recompiled
to work with IC 4? If so, could someone do the recompile?
Thanks!
Sam
