Clueless and lost

No, did you get the USB port to show up first?

Forgot to check that part… it did show up! Let me try uploading again with the port set to /dev/cu.usbmodem411

(already posted too many times for a new user, blocked for 21 hours lol)

It worked! It worked!
Thank you so much for your help. Going to try and get the other games on. I might need to return to this thread again when I need to delete some to make space for new ones. Not sure how many it will hold…

Uh oh… plugging it it turns on a red light, but now the screen won’t turn on at all. crap.

Having to edit this last reply since I can’t post anymore.

Production unit ordered through kickstarter. Just arrived today. I have uploaded pang , snakeling, and I attempted uploading the mega man one, but don’t think it worked.

Edit again. Thanks @ekem even though I have no idea what I did.
Still just a black screen on my Arduboy though. :frowning:
I get red and green lights while it is plugged in occasionally, but nothing on the screen. :frowning:

Another edit this morning (so many posts I’m blocked from posting until this evening)
Thanks @MLXXXp , I uploaded the snakeling sketch and was able to do it successfully, but my screen still won’t turn on :frowning:

This is a production unit right? What sketch did you upload?

We really should strive to make the Arduboy library installable from the IDE Library Manager (Sketch -> Include Library -> Manage Libraries...) ASAP!

There is already an issue for that and I think it’s in process.

I submitted the issue to Arduino’s repo yesterday, shouldn’t be too long. I hope.

Thanks for hopping on and letting us know where we need to improve : ) Glad you figured it out!

The Arduboy will only hold one game (known as a sketch) at a time. Each time you load a game, the previous one will be deleted.

Looks like other people are in the same boat as me. Bricked device the same day it came in the mail. I can upload a sketch to it, but the screen is solid black at all times.

What game are you trying to load. Many of the games here only work on the pre-production dev kit ones, and on the production units, produce a blank screen. Try one that is known to work, like the one it presumably came loaded with, blob attack from here:

http://www.team-arg.org/blba-downloads.html

I had tried uploading snakeling, pang, and the mega man one.
I tried to do Blob Attack, and it came up with this error message,

Error compiling.”

Hmm… Did you follow the instructions in the Quick Start Guide ([Discuss] Arduboy Quick Start Guide)? I wonder if you don’t have the library installed properly, or you’re using the wrong version of Arduino software. It’s also clear that you didn’t just download and extract the .zip file from Team A.R.G. because the sketch is called BLBA_AB_15 and not sketch_feb21b. That makes it sound like you’ve done some copying and pasting into a new sketch, which makes success a lot less likely.

Best thing is to ensure you followed the steps in the quick start exactly. Then, download the .ZIP file from Team A.R.G.'s web site and extract it. Inside the extracted ZIP is a folder labeled BLBA_AB_15. Copy that folder, in its entirety, to whatever folder you are using for your Arduino projects. Open the BLBA_AB_15.ino file that’s inside that folder. That should start the Arduino application. Then try the Upload from there.

I did follow the start guide and install that library. I did download the Blob Attack game, but when I open up the Arduino program a new blank sketch (?) is up, I go to Sketch>Include Library>Add .zip library… > then go to find the .zip file that I downloaded (block attack). When I try to upload it, it says I need to save the sketch file, it automatically pops up with the sketch_feb21 file name. Once I save it, it lets me upload it. Usually uploads correctly, but nothing ever shows up on the Arduboy.

… just tried opening the .ino file and uploading with what open up and it worked!
Going to try a different game and see if that method works as well (don’t really like the blob attack game…)

Yes, installing a library is different than how you use a “sketch” (program). There’s only the one library in play here, the Arduboy one that the QSG documents. If you want to open a “sketch” that you’ve downloaded, and you already have the Arduino IDE open, you can use the File/Open… command to do that.

But to be sure, there are lots of games that will not work on the current hardware. I do believe all the Arduboy games from http://www.team-arg.org/games.html work, though.

Yeah, tried Pang and Snakeling and there was an error in compiling each time. Tried the Chrome Dino Runner and it works, but then restarts a few seconds after it starts.

Everyone take a deep breath because these things are hard to permanently brick. Feel like we do need a great guide to get a working sketch back on after you’ve installed a non-working one… I can imagine how stressful this would be if you thought you truly destroyed your new Arduboy.

@orangeshoeskid did you ever get this resolved? If you’re still having problems we can try to send you another unit to see if the problems persist and if that fixes it the unit must be failed and we can get it back from you.

Let us know we want to help you out!

@CDR_Xavier,

You are replying in a topic where the last post was close to 2 YEARS ago. If the problem hasn’t been solved after all this time, the person probably won’t care about your answer now.

In the future, consider the date at the top right corner of the last post, before deciding to respond.

Then start a new topic to say it as a general statement for everyone.

And you should search the forum first to see if what you want to say has already been discussed. What you’ve said above has already been pointed out numerous times in the past.

Okay… :disappointed:
Then go ahead and delete all of the posts-restore them to the “uninterrupted” state of… mind.
