Opening the Eddie program in VPL for editing.
I want to edit the Eddie program in VPL but i don't know how so I have a couple of questions.
Were do I find the Eddie program file in MSRS? Is there more than 1 file I have to edit?
Were do I have to place a new program written in VPL so I can load it at the dss prompt.
thanks

Edit: Did you add the Service? http://www.parallax.com/Portals/0/Downloads/docs/prod/robo/eddie/28992-ParallaxServiceRDS4InstallGuide-v1.1.pdf
All eddie downloads here: http://www.parallax.com/eddie
Once you add the service I am pretty sure you will need to do a Build all again. Then it should come up in the VPL left column.
I want to write/ edit the eddie service in VPL to learn then reload it and run it.
MY question is were do I find the Eddie File to open it?
Edit: There is no space in the csproj. For some reason on my screen anyways it looks like there is a space between cs and proj.
Edit: The manifest directory is what you would want to use to run from a dss prompt. Change to the directory in the DSS command prompt and you should be able to run from there.
My Xbox controller buttons are backwards and I want to correct them.
Edit: Try the file directly below that one. Open with Visual C# 2010. It will then open all the files related to that project. THis seems a little strange in that normally the .csproj file is the one that needs to be opened.
If so, you are running a batch file that starts a DSS listener and a manifest that starts and orchestrates several services including MARK service(I believe, not at my computer), the ParallaxIOcontroller service, Kinect service, and serial service -- possibly more. The bad news is that all are written in C#. The good news is that all source code is provided in the install and you can download C# Express for free from Microsoft.

samples --> Platforms --> ReferencePlatform 2011 --> Parallax2011ReferencePlatformIOController Open the project and it will include all supporting files for generic services (Battery, drive, encoders etc.).
But as I mentioned, these are strictly C#. You can modify the ReferencePlatform application and when you re-compile it it will become available as a service in VPL. I'd change the name so you don't blow away the one that works

I will study it and try to make so sense of it.
Were do I find the parameter for the X-Box controller and the speeds for forward and backwards?
thanks

This scale factor is applied to power settings which must be in the
/// range -1 to +1. However, the game controller and trackball have a
/// range of -1000 to +1000.
You might try to change that and re-compile.
