E/X-Mag Microcontroller Programming (Atmel AT90S2313)

LorneCash,
Since it's conception, how long do you estimate the xmod will be beta?
Seems there is little room for enhancements/improvements on the stock board.
The software itself seems stable enough. It's just different marker behave in different ways.
And this is mostly due to mechanical issues in each one.
It would be great to see final release with the XMOD 1.x bootup without the BETA anymore...
Thanks.

Congrats, Lorne!!!

If you can, please, post a copy of the APG feature article on your web site so everyone can see it.

Thanks and keep up with the good work!

Regards,

Mendel.

Shatner Ball

OK now that it's Official I would like to announce that I will be at Shatner Ball. So anyone who is going make sure an look for me and say hi. I'm gonna try and get an AO jersy with "Lorne Cash" on it and something about XMOD on the front. Probably "Got XMOD?" Unless one of you guys can think of something better.

Look forward to seeing you there.

How about "GET XMOD HERE" with an arrow pointing to your crotch?

[LorneCash]

I'm not sure if I'll be there saturday or not cuz I'm staying with a friend and he was talking about going surfing... I might though that was my original plan, to go both days.

Well, if you need a ride to the field from your friends house I'm possitive one can be arranged.

Hey lorne, send me a PM with your address and I will send out some stickers for you to give out while your there.

There's no point for me to spend more time on anything when I get nothing for it.

Developing AGD 4.x cost me hundreds of dollars... and other people tried to make a profit off of it... by selling it in some manner. I was a bit annoyed. Hundreds of hours of work...

What I got out of it was... I learned a lot. I'm a professional programmer now... finally... and I still use insights that I learned from 4.x. It was worth it overall... I came out ahead really.

Oh I totally agree there, XMOD's pretty much done and all the lessons have been learned. They were invaluable. and I do consider myself ahead. In fact I have several new opportunities because of my new knowledge/skills. That's why at this point if people are going to try to rip me off I see no need it making small tweaks. I did what I did because I wanted better software for my gun and since getting a hold of AGD 4.2 was only a dream I decided to try and do my own. I would have done it wheather I got a single dollar for it or not. Although without the money it probably would have stopped before Millennium mode and such beecause that is of no use to my but my to european friends that is invaluable.

Ha... same reason why I made my original Q software. I was disappointed with the announced feature set of 3.x... so I decided to do it myself.

What I wanted 4.x to be... is how XMOD turned out... (But I had to stick to specs and couldn't make it that way)... so it's cool to see what you completed.
