Hey guys, I just uploaded my first font/style to my proffieboard. Everything seemed to go ok, but now when it doesn’t seem like my tip drag works any longer. As well as being able to hold the power button to cycle backwards between fonts. (I can still go forward, just not backward). Here is my config and the original config from theory sabers. I don’t see anything but I’m also a newb.
Theory1Button.h (37.6 KB)
sunshatter_config.h (43.2 KB)
Upon further inspection. When I hold the power button down when the blade is off it goes back to the first font always not the previous font.
Also it may be a bigger problem, it was randomly playing other sound files on the saber I had never even heard before.
What version of ProffieOS do you have?
What version of ProffieOS did you have before?
Have you read the beginning of this file to to see if that matches how you use the saber?
I’m currently using 7.14
I am not sure what version I had before. I’m using it straight from the manufacturer (theorysabers). I made a backup of everything before I started. Would it say the OS on the original info on the card?
I think the manufacturer used version 5.9 , I used 7.14…
If I reinstall 5.9, upload my config, and download to the board will it work as previously installed?
If that is what the manufacturer used, then yes.
It may. However, when you do an upload, the compiled program is not stored on the SD card, but in flash memory on the proffieboard itself.
Thank you sir.
I will give re-downloading 5.9 a shot when I get home. I’ll do more research on 7.14 so I can update it to that in the future, as I’m sure there are improvements.
Both of those config files have this for the path to the prop file
#include "..//props/saber_fett263_buttons.h"
that’s one too many slashes. It should just be
#include "../props/saber_fett263_buttons.h"
The difference you’re seeing is likely a change to the button events that the fett263 prop file uses between 5.9 and 7.14.
@Fett263 could clarify if “previous preset” was changed to a different control.
That said, you should just read the instructions at the top of the prop file itself for how the 7.14 version prop works, then just use that.
IMO, reverting to an “ancient” OS is not a great solution for just how a button works.
Controls for my prop in OS7 are here:
Yes, but is previous preset different from OS 5.9?
My prop didn’t have 1 button controls in 5.9, only 2 button. 1 button controls were added in OS6.
If you’re using my prop in OS7 you need to see the Set Up Instructions on this page, your presets are missing the “common” folder with Voice Prompts which are required in OS7.
