|
|
I have released a new beta (b28) of NBC/NXC. You can find it at (URL) support is liable to have a few problems still since it is new and has not been extensively tested. Ditto for typedefs. I also posted a universal binary of beta 27 that was built (...) (18 years ago, 13-Apr-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

(...) I have just uploaded a new zip. The new version should play the default NXT click sound on the PC when you press the buttons. If you put a wave file in the same directory as the NeXTScreen utility and name it "click.wav" then the utility (...) (18 years ago, 13-Apr-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

I've posted (part I of) a tutorial regarding direct IO from input port pins 5 and 6. A nice application is shown - rotation counter on input port using motor built-in encoders. Read it here: (URL) Ziv NXTasy.org (18 years ago, 13-Apr-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

(...) It occurred to me last night that I had totally misunderstood what you were saying. Maybe the NXT had been clicking all along when you pressed the buttons on the utility and that you were wanting specifically to also have the PC make a noise (...)

(...) I don't mind it making noises when I tell it to but squawking everytime I turn it on or clicking whenever I press a button is just a bit too much for me. I understand that kids probably love it - especially when it's been customized but I (...) (18 years ago, 13-Apr-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

(...) How about a "click" sound when the keys are hit? Or perhaps a little blur on the keyface to indicate that it has been clicked? It shouldn't need to be, but the Wii generation seems to need multi-media reinforcements. (18 years ago, 12-Apr-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)
