 | | LegOS and the Downloader....
|
|
I just installed LegOS last night, made my first few not-too-complicated programs today, and downloaded them. They worked fine, up until I found the bugs. I tried to download a new, updated version of my program, and got an error message. (24 years ago, 13-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

I forgot to mention that LEGO Engineer 2.0 currently runs on top of ROBOLAB 2.0. So ok, its not *free* :) You have to spend the $25 or so on ROBOLAB first. But its still better than LOGO I think because the programming is graphical. And unlike (...) (24 years ago, 9-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab, lugnet.technic, lugnet.robotics.rcx)

Just to clarify, this serial interface box that you've been given doesn't have much to do with ROBOLAB. ROBOLAB is the software for the RCX. What you want (free) is LEGO Engineer, which looks and smells a lot like ROBOLAB. (URL) Right now only the (...)
