  Re: newbie troubles (now they in packs of 2)
 
Jason, Try using ./firmdl3 ../boot/brickos.srec this would work if you were in the util folder; from the main brickos folder it would be util/firmdl3 boot/brickos.srec the .srec file is now called brickos.srec 8-) // Joe (...) (22 years ago, 3-Feb-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: IR header how optional
 
(...) Yes, I misspoke, indeed from a place of incomplete understanding, sorry, thanks for helping. I did mean to say x 10:EF 10:EF works fine. Like you, if I try x 10:FE 10:FE, I see it echoed but then I see no further reply. And yes x 10:FE 10:FE (...) (22 years ago, 3-Feb-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

Besides of NQC manual (which is REALLY comprehensive) is at (URL) good NQC tutorial written by Mark Overmars. It's quite old so there can be some dead links, but in fact, it helped me to start with NQC. If you know Pascal, I think it's good starting (...)

  Re: LNP problem

Hi, src/rcx.[ch] and rcx/remote.c. This may sound stupid but I was wondering if you have to download both these files to the rcx? Anyhelp would be great Thanks Andrew ___...___ Chat online in real time with MSN Messenger (URL) (22 years ago, 2-Feb-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Problems with NQC and math operations
 
(...) Did you considered that the RCX has only integer variables. So, the allowed operation range is -32768 32767. If at any stage of your operation you exceed these limits, the result will be corrupted. For the use of sine and cosine with integer (...) (22 years ago, 3-Feb-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

  Re: IR header - A Detailed Explanation
 
Several posts have speculated about the use and necessity of the "header" bytes used by standard RCX messaging. Hopefully this post provides definitive information on the topic.

Dean, Well, that was the problem...changing the 10000 to 100 makes me get a value back, however I think the error is too big for the robots to navigate effectively..I'll probably have to learn legOS so I can use floating-point and get more precise (...)

  Re: Problems with NQC and math operations
 
Jeff, Your problem is with the 16 bit integer size that NQC uses. All integers are in the range -32768 to 32767. Using 10000 to simulate fixed point math operations is killing you. Everything works when you replace theta and D with constants because (...) (22 years ago, 2-Feb-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
