How about now?

After more than a year of beta testing, ProffieOS 8 is now live. If all you want is to download it, you can find it on my site, or on github: My site: ProffieOS Github: Releases · profezzorn/ProffieOS · GitHub Changes since ProffieOS 7 Note that most features have a book icon next to it which links to the documetaion. Menu System This isn’t so much a menu, as it is a system for implementing menus. It also separates the menu setup from the prop file, so we can have multiple different menu configurations, and then prop A and menu B independently. Currently supported by the “saber”, “BC” and “Fett263” props. For most users, all they will need to know is how to use the MENU_SPEC_TEMPLATE define. Sound Library V2 Adds a bunch more sounds to the spoken sound library to support the new menus. Also adds support for a configurable color list. Color Display support Support 16-bit color displays. What is shown is composited from layers, and each layer can show independent color animations. Animations use a new file format called PQF which offers some compression (usually around 50%) while being very fast to decompress. PQF also offers loops, labels and conditions which lets you build complex animations which react to events from the saber. SD card corruption protection If enabled, SD cards will not be automatically mountable on your computer. Instead, you have to use a menu option on the saber, or a serial monitor command to be able to mount the SD card from the computer. Once done, you can turn off the setting again, thus preventing most forms of SD card corruption. Dual-Blade support ProffieOS can now keep track of which blades are on and off individually, which makes it easier for props to support Maul-style ignition.
