Great work!!!

Can Pyxis run on a Domino/Mini/Panda if a micro SD is available?

@ Gus, THANKS! :-[

@ RJ, Not yet. I’m working on finding a suitable LCD for those devices. If you know of one please link me and I’ll get a port together.

A TinyCLR forum client is coming to Pyxis 2…that is all

Architect · February 11, 2011, 3:37pm

Wow! That is so cool. Actually I have just installed P2 on my CWX. Trying to program a game for it.

Skewworks · February 11, 2011, 3:39pm

Seriously?! That’s great man! What type of game? If it’s tile based or old school adventure style I may have some code I could send your way to help start you off.

Architect · February 11, 2011, 3:47pm

Sure!
It is tile based.
Actually I have two in mind - Lines and Pipes.

Something like:

Not exactly what you’re working on but here’s the first tile animation test I did; maybe it will help.

Impressive!

Is there an XML feed you are grabbing somewhere? How is the data getting in other than that if not? HTTP scraping?

Skewworks · February 13, 2011, 12:54pm

I hear there [italic]will[/italic] be an XML feed at some point but for now this is me working with straight HTML.

Gus_Issa · February 13, 2011, 1:04pm

I would love to see xml and also mobile version of this forum
