I'm not 100% sure, but when I used Spirit.OCX (VC, VB, Delphi, etc...) for some research, I was under the impression that it supported 3 types of interface: "Radio" (CyberMaster), "InfraRed" (RCX, Scout) and I think it was "Cable" or "Direct" or (...)

People, What is this "firmware" that is supposed to be loaded into the RCX? Is there anywhere I can download it?? Thanks, -- Paula Berger E-mail: pberger@terra.com.br paula@inf.pucrs.br ICQ#: 71133278 (23 years ago, 21-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

It seems like NQC 2.4 has been stuck in beta test for a very long time...I wanted to wait for Mac OS 9 and Linux USB support, but at the moment Lego hasn't released their Mac OS 9 driver and the Linux situation is probably best addressed right now (...)

Actually, I wouldn't recommend using the simulator. My original intention was to develop the core of a simulator thus enabling other people to make a full-fledged application with nice menus and dialog boxes. Since that hasn't happened, the (...)

(...) You could try David Baum's (creator of NQC) simulator, found here: (URL) is 'very alpha', meaning that it's in its early stages of development and uses Java, so be ready to ask more questions :) Good luck and hope you get your RCX soon!

Another doubt: When I'm programming with NQC, is there a way to run the program (simulate its behavior actualy) without the RCX (because I don't have it yet)? Thanks, -- Paula Berger E-mail: pberger@terra.com.br paula@inf.pucrs.br ICQ#: 71133278 (23 years ago, 16-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

Hi everybody, a need some explanation about NQC. What I have to do is this: I have Lego Dacta's Control Lab (#9701) and I want to program it using NQC. I know now that I need to buy the RCX in order to do that, but is there anything else? What is (...) (23 years ago, 15-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
