Brand new to Proffie, seeking help on firmware update

Hey there everyone, I’m very new to Proffie and a complete stranger to coding. I have grasped the basics of this stuff with the help of Fett263, but obviously still have a long ways to go. This is going to seem like a stupid question, but is there any guide out there on how to update the Proffie firmware from say 5.9 to OS6/7? I couldn’t really find anything that mentioned this in particular, and any help is much appreciated, as I’m wanting to update this saber and start using blade styles from Fett263’s library for OS6. Thank you!

Hello Miller,

Welcome to The Crucible.

Every time you upload a new config, the whole ProffieOS (your firmware in this case) gets uploaded on the board. Just grab the latest ProffieOS 7.15.zip file, extract it in a folder called ProffieOS, place your config in the config folder, click on ProffieOS.ino from the newly extracted ProffieOS folder, and change
// #define CONFIG_FILE "config/YOUR_CONFIG_FILE_NAME_HERE.h"
to
#define CONFIG_FILE "config/the_name_of_your_config_here.h" (respect the spelling of your config file (caps/no-caps included)

Hit verify, hit upload, and voila firmware updated!
