Ich habe den Thread mal als "wichtig" markiert, was ihn auf der ersten Seite ganz oben hält.

I marked this thread as "important", wich will make it stick to the first line on first page of this forum.

Many thanks to -Rick-! Great cinema!

It works well under Ubuntu Lucid Lynx and also under Windows XP. Now, the Robby is beside me all the time.

I installed it on Windows 7 64bit. It was working without any problems.
The manual, as well as -Rick-'s post, were very helpful. I had a little problems while runnig "make all" because my main-files return an "uint16_t" (as it is in the Arexx example Programms) and not only an "int".
After correcting that, i could use my .dll - Plugin.
I'm wondering if it also works with the Remotrol.

Thanks a lot!

Thanks everyone for the positive feedback!

Hmm I didn't noticed that they do. As the compiler is actually compiling C++, and because this language is more strict, I guess it didn't like the 'non standard' return type.

I'm wondering if it also works with the Remotrol.

I don't have any experience with Remotrol, but if I inderstand correctly, it uses the serial port to communicate with the robot. If this is the case, it is most likely possible. To do so, you first need to install a virtual serial port, on Windows I know that com0com (http://com0com.sourceforge.net/) works. Using this software, you will need to create a pair of virtual ports, and connect one of the two with the simulator (via the settings screen) and the other with Remotrol. You can create a second pair if you also want to link the simulated m32.

One short question. Is the rp6simul able to simulate the RP6 with the M32-Board?

[JayWay]

Yes, it is.

[fulltime]

so you can simulate that the RP6 is driving around, and when it hears a noise it stops. For example

[JayWay]

A short quote: "Sound interaction - When you have m32 simulation enabled, you can press the hand clap button generate a clapping noise. This noise will be registered by the MIC ADC channel of the m32 board. The sound level can be influenced by pressing and holding the hand clap button for a shot while."
There are a lot of other informations in the help file.

Hello everyone,
I would like to use the Original RP6 Programs directly to generate the Plugin.
Is this possible? how do i have to change the CMakeLists? Is it enough to change the Path in line 12 and 13 like this:

#from find_path(RP6LibPath RP6base RP6common ../RP6Lib) to
find_path(RP6LibPath RP6base RP6common ../../RP6Lib)
#from find_path(glueSrcPath glue.cpp ../avrglue)
find_path(glueSrcPath glue.cpp ../../avrglue)

Like this i wouldn't have to copy the files all the time.
Would it even be possible to create some kind of make.bat that i can run it directly from Programmers Notepad?!

[edit]
while running mingw32-make, i always get the error "avr/io.h: No such file or directory". How do i fix this?

Thanks a lot for your help!

Hallo,

ich habe im ersten Post mal einen Hinweis angefügt, dass -Rick- auch ganz gut deutsch versteht und antworten auf deutsch kein Problem sind. So können wir versuchen, diesen interessanten Thread noch ein wenig berühmter zu machen.

i added a few words to the first post from -Rick-, stating that he is able to read German posts and tries his best to help German users, too.
