SkateArdDie! - Awesome

[Matt_Carter (Matt Cärtër)]

Awesome. I love this game

[Cody17 (Cody)]

Hi could you add in a little video

[MLXXXp (Scott)]

I recently added a Sprites class to the Arduboy2 library. This created a conflict with the Sprites class included locally in SkateArdDie. This causes a compile error:
sprites.h:29: error: redefinition of 'class Sprites' - error

I’ve made modifications to SkateArdDie to switch to using the Arduboy2 Sprites class. My new version can be found here.

I’ve created a pull request for the changes, so hopefully the original will be updated (if my fix works properly).

[pixelplatforms (GDM)]

I merged the pull request thanks!

[Cody17 (Cody)]

when my arduboy arrives I playing this!

Is anyone else having the problem where when you put the game onto the arduboy, it doesn’t let you put another one on. if so and if you were able to change the game, please tell me how to.
I am on a macbook.

Have you tried flash light mode?

How To Use Flashlight Mode To Fix Bricked Arduboys

If you’re having a problem uploading a new game to your Arduboy, you may be encountering a bootloader issue. Some games use so much memory that your Arduboy’s bootloader cannot correctly enter into the mode needed to reprogram. Luckily, the Arduboy has a built-in function to prevent this from stopping you from installing another game. It’s called flashlight mode. To use flashlight mode to install another game: Turn off your Arduboy. Hold UP on the D-Pad. While still holding the D-Pad, turn on…

Have you tried pressing the reset button?

How to Reset Arduboy if it's Bricked

Here is a quick video showing how to reset the Arduboy into bootloader mode. You’ll need to press the reset button while Arduboy is attempting to upload code. The video gives a few good pointers be sure to watch the whole thing if you’ve got a problem with your Arduboy! [Updated with new video]

[Yank33doodle]

flashlight mode is not turning on.

[filmote (Simon)]

Oh … I can see in the code they have not enabled that. Nasty.

Try the reset method.

Error compiling for board Arduboy.

[filmote (Simon)]

Sorry I am not sure what that error is.

Have you tried compiling games other than Pong? Maybe try the sample HelloWorld? (yes I am clutching at straws)

[Yank33doodle]

i tried hello world from both arduboy 1 & 2 from examples, that did not work, (i did both no reset and a reset) i think it might be my computer, but i have completely shut down my computer 2ce, and deleted and then re-downoalded it.
so, should i try removing all the arduboy libraries & boards?

[Yank33doodle]

the arduboy is showing up and i can select it and the screen is still working, and i can play the game. so i do not know what is happening, im going to try using a different computer? i am not sure that would work though.

[Yank33doodle]

maybe i could try letting the battery drain on it then charge it up? im really grasping for straws here, cus i got it only 15 days ago.

[filmote (Simon)]

Humour me, can you try to upload Hello World again but this time ensure the device is visible (in the IDE got oto ports and make sure it is selected) and change the board to Leonardo (not Arduboy).

[Yank33doodle]

That did not work, I believe the problem is my computer, not the Arduboy

[Pharap]

Have you got a longer error message available?
Have you turned verbose compilation on?
(File > Preferences > Compiler warnings: All)

Have you tried nuking your library folder and reinstalling all the libraries?

And failing that have you tried nuking your Arduino IDE install and reinstalling it from scratch?

[Yank33doodle]

Yes to all of it, did not work, the arduboy & arduboy 2 is not showing up in examples, I think that’s the problem, but I forget how to get it to show them

[Pharap]

If the examples aren’t showing up then it sounds like the libraries aren’t installed properly or can’t be found.

I have no idea where they get installed on a Mac though.

[Yank33doodle]

I’m just going to watch the video I used after removing everything
