Microsoft Robotics Studio v1.0 (Released)

I have taken another try at working with this new release. So far, it looks pretty nice, and the Visual Programming Language (VPL) included now actually does work. I am not sure MS needed to divide the programming tasks down quite as far as they did, but it does work. Now I am getting to the point where I would like to try adding support for my own robots, such as W.A.L.T.E.R. and am starting to think MS actually may be on the right track.

There is a problem with VPL crashing on startup that may be corrected as follows:

  1. Uninstall the .NET Framework 3.0

  2. Download the latest .NET 3.0 Framework from Microsoft.

  3. Install the newly downloaded .NET Framework 3.0

This procedure works and fixes the crashing VPL on startup problems. I found this solution on the MSDN Forums.

It seems that a linux guy has fallen in love with Microsoft free products :stuck_out_tongue: Whats wrong man? The penguin not treatin’ ya well?

Wise kid… :stuck_out_tongue: Ummm, well, ya know, I need to stay active and try to keep from getting bored. Me being bored is NOT a good thing.

I still prefer the Penguin, but am not opposed to playing with other cool software for other operating systems. So there! :slight_smile: :smiley: It just takes a lot more work, generally, for me do a lot of stuff with Linux. :frowning:

HEY! Didn’t I specifically instruct you not to tell? Tsk, tsk, what am I going to do with you now? :stuck_out_tongue:
