It’s finally here, a little overdue, but I had a really good excuse, I was at a robotics event on Saturday and I was fixing some last minute bugs! Better to be late than buggy, right? That’s not saying there are no bugs in this release, of course. IMPORTANT NOTICE(S)! [...]
It’s here, folks! After what seems like an eternity, at least to me, I proudly present the first beta of the ROBOTC Driver Suite V3.0. The reason it’s beta is because I have not had a chance to test all of the drivers. I will continue to test more as [...]
The ROBOTC development team have released a new version of ROBOTC 3.51 that addresses a number of issues that were present and reported by users in 3.50. Below is a list of changes that were made: Change joystick button commands to return a short to avoid “int == bool” comparison [...]
Since the release of ROBOTC 3.50, I’ve been working hard on porting my current Driver Suite to the new function prototypes that came along with the introduction of pointers. Apart from the obvious changes to make it compile under ROBOTC 3.50, I have also finally made the move to rename [...]

3 New Drivers I’ve added support for 2 new devices and a better driver for an older one. The minimal version for the Driver Suite has been set to 3.08. If you need support for an older version ROBOTC, I would advise you to stick with a previous version of [...]
I’ll be releasing a new version of the driver Driver Suite soon. I’ve changed the minimum version it will compile under to ROBOTC 3.08, the latest stable release. I am using some very useful functionality in some of my drivers that didn’t appear in previous versions. #include “firmwareVersion.h” #if (kFirmwareVersion [...]
