ProffieOS v6.7 is now LIVE

Not sure I follow, how were you working on OS6 styles?

Regarding the new feature for ‘Audio Filter Frequency cut-off’…

Is this a feature that is already ON by default internally (already set to a default value), even if you don’t have the DEFINE’s (FILTER_CUTOFF_FREQUENCY, FILTER_ORDER) in your prop file?

Or is this feature only active when you have the defines in your prop?

I was using the lava lamp effect style I just didn’t know those would not work with the os6 didn’t realize they would need to be entirely different. I will attempt to go back to 5.9 to test them but what is weird is I didn’t have any issues with another custom blade style so i was just confused why it wouldn’t work this time as it goes, I will just wait until things are setup and try again later on. I do appreciate what you are working towards. it is awesome.

OS5 styles run fine in OS6, you just can’t edit colors, settings or options with them.
As noted in my previous reply, all styles require:

StylePtr<...>() 

so if your style is missing this you probably left it off or forgot to copy it, so just add it and you should be fine. If you continue to have issues probably better to start a separate thread and post the config and error messages as this thread is specific to OS6, but it sounds like you just have a config issue.

sorry thanks

It’s only on if you add FILTER_CUTOFF_FREQUENCY to your config file.
FILTER_ORDER defaults to 8, so you don’t have to have it in your config file.

I am pretty sure I have followed all the instructions to set up Edit Mode and put in all the defines in my config file, and I get no error messages when compiling in Arduino, but Edit Mode won’t work. I can’t enter it. How can I fix this?

Need to see your config.

It uses too many characters, so I will send a link to it in Pastebin.

Yeah, that config definitely doesn’t have Edit Mode and it hasn’t been set up at all for it. There’s a lot of documentation linked the first post of this thread I suggest reading through all of it first.

Okay. I went through it with your video, (very useful!) and changed the preset format and added the correct defines. Is this set up for Edit Mode?

Assuming you also set up your SD as described in the documentation then it should.

You don’t need these, they are handled by ENABLE_ALL_EDIT_OPTIONS

#define DYNAMIC_BLADE_LENGTH

Hello all, just wanted to say thank you for OS6, I followed all instructions and it works so well! Love it.

I had 2 questions and I’m not sure if I should have posted here or a new thread.
I just experienced an interesting lockup/crash on my saber, I upgraded to 6.5 after having OS5 on my graflex, it has proffieboard v2.2, I was swinging and trying out edit mode for about 35 minutes. I went into battle mode (holding aux until force.wav played), I then clashed the blade with my hand a few times and the whole saber locked up; animations on the blade were frozen and sound was playing a consistent tone. I had to put the kill key to kill the power to get it back, since then I couldn’t replicate the issue. Is this because the proffie ran out of RAM? The saber has 4 blades (main, pogo pin connector and 2 crystals) 2 edit mode enabled styles and 2 OS5 styles(when the crash happened, I was on the edit mode style).

Second question, I used to post in TRA all the time using tapatalk, how do I add The Crucible to Tapatalk? I tried searching for the forum and all the usual methods to add a forum with no luck.
Thanks again!

Welcome to this side of things!
Can’t help you with Tapatalk.
Your might have had a random glitch if it hasn’t happened again.
For good measure, I’d suggest a backup of your SD card, a fresh format and re-copy over your stuff. A newer, faster SD card couldn’t hurt either, but you’re probably fine.
If it happens again, you can try to recreate the issue while plugged into USB, open serial monitor in Arduino and watch the messages from the board. They might give a clue to the problem.
Although a total sudden freeze doesn’t usually show much…the message output stream just stops. But if you have a record of it, then paste here, someone might see something helpful in the log.

Thanks NoSloppy, if it helps it’s a class10 SD card 16GB iirc it’s either transcend or sandisk, very low use/write to it, just copied things to it twice, if it happens again I’ll use another time one.

Yeah I assumed that serial monitor outputs wouldn’t yield anything. Did not think that the SD card might be the problem though. Thanks!

Yeah, possible the SD card was dislodged or lost contact as well. Make sure the SD is secure in the board. A onetime occurrence is hard to take action on, see if it’s repeatable after ensuring SD card doesn’t come loose. Styles shouldn’t freeze the board, they may slow down if the SD card is reading too slowly but not freeze completely, but even then it’s typically caused by SD not style.

Okay, I mean I did remove the SD card to prep it for OS6, so I might not have placed it 100%. Thanks! I’ll report back if it happens again, I’ll be doing 2 more OS6 upgrades today too with rigid testing on one as it’s my duelling saber.

Okay. I remade my common folder just in case and deleted those defines, but I still can’t enter edit mode. I genuinely have no idea why it isn’t working.

Without knowing what you did I can’t really help. Look at the set up instructions on this page (scroll down to Set Up for EditMode section and doublecheck).
