  Re: I'm passing the NQC torch...
 
A few hours after I was working with my brand new RIS kit, I knew the programming environment was too limited for my needs. Thanks God there was NQC out there, very young but already very solid, offering an entire new world of possibilities. Without (...) (21 years ago, 12-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Motors on Sensor ports
 
I'm just curious if there's any harm in connecting motors to active sensor ports... I know you don't get very much voltage/speed/torque, but you do get interesting readings that can be used to detect when the motor stalls. This is potentially a very (...)

  Re: Help w/install _or_ It all went so well
 
(...) [...] (...) Well it looks like the gcc-version-problem I had. The gcc >=3.x do not allow multiline strins without "\" anymore, which are still uses in brickos. So my hint is to install a gcc 2.95 and everything should work fine... Note: This (...) (21 years ago, 12-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Help w/install _or_ It all went so well
 
_warning_ I'm new to BrickOS, so be patient. I've just attempted to install using the instructions at (URL) went fine until step 4 command './configure; make' which looked like this: ... $ ./configure; make Welcome to the brickOS Makefile (...)

  Re: ROM image using USB tower
 
(...) Andrew, I grabbed a ROM image awhile back using a serial tower and an RCX 1.0. I haven't tried this on a 2.0 brick, but I think the ROMware is identical in all RCX versions. Although Kekoa's SEND.C uses the serial tower, it is not too hard to (...) (21 years ago, 12-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) Dave, please allow me to add my name to the list of appreciative fans of your work, and the generous example you put forward to the LEGO/Mindstorms community. We all owe you a lot! -- Russ (21 years ago, 11-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  ROM image using USB tower
 
Hi, I'm doing a project at University involving developing some example programs running on a Lego RCX in order to demonstrate/teach OS concepts. I'd really like to get hold of a ROM image from the RCX, but I only have a USB tower available, and (...) (21 years ago, 12-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: I'm passing the NQC torch...
 
(...) Please allow me add my sincere thanks to Dave for all the hard work he has put in over the last few years. As far as I am concerned, RIS only really appeals to me because of the access that NQC has permitted to the RCX. Were we to have been (...) (21 years ago, 11-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Re: I'm passing the NQC torch...
 
(...) Dave, Thanks so much for the work you have put into NQC. I have used this tool exclusively with BricxCC. You have changed the face of Mindstorms programming and for that I and I am sure many others are grateful. Thanks again, Dave (21 years ago, 11-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Re: I'm passing the NQC torch...
 
(...) I too just wanted to say a huge THANK YOU for your hard efforts. Even them small changes you made for me to make it work better with my setup. I can honestly say that with our NQC the VLC's automation layouts would not have been possible. Your (...) (21 years ago, 11-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

  Re: I'm passing the NQC torch...
 
(...) Your contribution to the Mindstorms community through NQC has been fantastic. When I started with Mindstorms, that was the only language I used for a long time. Thanks and the very best regards !! KK (21 years ago, 11-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Re: I'm passing the NQC torch...
 
Thank you Mr.Baum. you have brought great help to the Mindstorms community. I read somewhere that you live in Lake Zurich. I also live there. i hope you continue to contribute. Once again, thanks. -Nick (21 years ago, 11-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

Thanks a lot, Dave, for all the time and energy you have put in NQC, I am sure that John, who already carried RCXcc to new heights with BricxCC, will be able to keep this project alive - and well ! I think that TLC is in debt with you too, so (...) (21 years ago, 11-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

Dave, Thank you so much for your hard work and wonderful support of MindStorms over the years!

(...) Thank you so much Dave. Just to let you know that I decided to enter the MINDSTORM world because of your NQC. In Japanese we say "Gokurosama deshita !". Best regards, Liem PH (21 years ago, 11-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
