[frank hawk]

nice project

[frank hawk]

how use the 2nd button

[frank hawk]

nice, waiting my esp32

[thorny thistle]

lookin good!

[radiant copper]

Can I attach a battery?

Are you looking at the gift hub of info?

[radiant copper]

Now I gotta figure out how to add in NFC and also adding the software

I’m working on it so I can have use my vital bracelet

[frank hawk]

Awesome

[strange iris]

what voltage does the battery need to be for this? I know the size of the battery needs to be a 40x30x10mm lipo.

[frank hawk]

usb is 5v

[tight meadow]

https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:7217090
I updated it by adding wificom function

[graceful depot]

Wow! The V-Pet features are seriously impressive!

[tight meadow]

making training feature

[frank hawk]

Im doing it but i can´t understand this "Create a connector with signal toward LCD and gnd toward the back"

[tight meadow]

make 2 of 2prong

[frank hawk]

https://tenor.com/view/patrick-star-patrick-dumb-stupid-empty-head-gif-6382591252072604951

I will try something

[tight meadow]

just like this. sorry for my bad english

[frank hawk]

Wait, for the pins? No problem I was thinking in software

Is not original lilygo but I can see the pins in one photo

I will make that later and finish the wifi part

I'm gonna make a manual for retards like me xD

[frank hawk]

where is the vpet I can´t find it

[tight meadow]

I did not release vpet yet

[tight meadow]

I'm planning to create my own colosseum mode while updating the vpet function.

[tight meadow]

This is how I made hardware easiest way

[frank hawk]

1s lipo how much mah

[tight meadow]

I misunderstand, its 1000mah

[frank hawk]

thanks

[frank hawk]

[frank hawk]

@tight meadow thanks

[coarse crystal]

Gave +1 Digi-rep to @tight meadow (current: #77 - 26)

[frank hawk]

What are the values ​​of r1 and r2?

R1=3.9K, R2=5.6K???

[tight meadow]

yes

[tight meadow]

Colosseum mode now simply needs more stages. Now, I'm aiming to implement vpet again.

[frank hawk]

Cool, what's the adventure menu

[tight meadow]

just you can fight digimon adventure's boss

[frank hawk]

Good good

[frank hawk]

@tight meadow Could the update be the reason it's not working for me?
I can use it to send things to the device, but even though I'm connected to Wi-Fi, I can't get anything to work.

[tight meadow]

If it's online, the feature will work. Please let me see it in video.

[steady nexus]

Hi, that Upgrade Available is meant for official firmware

We're planning on adding a 3rd party tag that ignores update status soon for devices that are not running official firmware with a Pico

Sorry for confusion there

[frank hawk]

Thanks for the explanation 😀

[coarse crystal]

Gave +1 Digi-rep to @steady nexus (current: #725 - 1)

[frank hawk]

ok I will record it 👍

I can´t need more hands 😅

[frosty pond]

SHINKA!

@frank hawk has evolved into Child!

[frank hawk]

That's it

[tight meadow]

you have to push down button

and push vpet button

[tight meadow]

you can change the option to automatically send signals

[frank hawk]

change turn1 delay? I try it but nothing works

[tight meadow]

try every option

[open oracle]

is this what i need?

[frosty pond]

SHINKA!

@open oracle has evolved into Child!

[tight meadow]

no esp lilygo t display

[tight meadow]

I am making a patch for wificom's feature. please wait

[frosty pond]

@tight meadow has leveled up! (11 ➜ 12)

[open oracle]

alright thanks

[coarse crystal]

Gave +1 Digi-rep to @tight meadow (current: #76 - 27)

[open oracle]

this?

[tight meadow]

yes!

[open oracle]

alright

[frank hawk]

thanks

[coarse crystal]

Gave +1 Digi-rep to @tight meadow (current: #76 - 28)

[tight meadow]

Uploaded. Added a prototype for the Colosseum and removed the confusing wificom options. Just place your cursor on the first option box and transfer the DigiROM.

[frank hawk]

Now it's clearly my problem. I've updated, but the Colosseum isn't communicating properly. The vpet shows an error, but the esp32 displays a combat animation.

[frank hawk]

I'll check the voltage, but it's raining and I can't go get the voltmeter. 😅

[frosty pond]

@frank hawk has leveled up! (3 ➜ 4)

[tight meadow]

you have to choose other battle in dm20

[frank hawk]

true 😅 , except wifi all working

[tight meadow]

Loading png files took up too much RAM, so I switched to loading bmp files, but the code became a mess. So I had to rewrite the code from scratch.

[crimson jasper]

Ohhh thats explain a lot, i was trying in the bottom bcs the mono-color converter 😂

[hearty tulip]

Why don't you try implementing a feature to connect directly to Wi-Fi battles?

[tight meadow]

you can use wificom feature

[frank hawk]

When we can try it

[hearty tulip]

Can you show proof? When are you selling it?

[tight meadow]

here

[tight meadow]

wificom is wokrking like this and i will not sell it

[tight meadow]

Currently, all Digimon from ver. 1 have been added. However, all routes are being personally verified and adjusted.

[ashen thicket]

Hi
I’m making the Wificom/ mono color adapter but a don’t get the steps 5 and 6

Create a connector with signal toward LCD and gnd toward the back
goto wificom.dev/wifi-devices and make secrets.json file

LittleFS tools is grey not available I can’t read

[frank hawk]

is the connection to the vpet

[ashen thicket]

Yes ok I got that thanks
But what about the part with the secrets json file ?

[coarse crystal]

Gave +1 Digi-rep to @frank hawk (current: #728 - 1)

[frank hawk]

In the web, devices, wificom,new device

edit the device created in the web and add the ssid and password for your wifi

[ashen thicket]

Sorry I don’t understand

[frank hawk]

https://wificom.dev/devices/wificoms

[ashen thicket]

Should I create an account on it ?

[frank hawk]

yes

that´s only for wifi, all other utilities works without that just iun case you wanted a converter o whatever

[ashen thicket]

Ow ok

[ashen thicket]

And the json file ?

Is it when I export the wificom config ?

[frank hawk]

yes

[ashen thicket]

I got the file now but on ESPconnect I still can’t click on littleFS Tool as on the tutorial

[frank hawk]

I remember that happen to me but I can´t remember the solution sorry 😅

Something en spiffs tools maybe

[ashen thicket]

😅😅

[tight meadow]

you stuck here?

[ashen thicket]

Yes
It’s connecting like it should

[tight meadow]

hmm...can i look your screenshot?

[ashen thicket]

I’m running it testing it
It seems to work fine at first
I tested colloseum with B/W and it works
But it doesn’t with color

Did I miss something ?

[tight meadow]

you have to enter color vpet battlemode first, and select esp32 color battle mode

[ashen thicket]

Ow ok

[ashen thicket]

Still showing error

[tight meadow]

like this

[tight meadow]

you have to set partition

[ashen thicket]

How ?

[tight meadow]

here 2mb for app and 2mb for sprite

[ashen thicket]

Sorry I don’t understand what you are saying

@tight meadow what do I do from here ?

[ashen thicket]

There is no new/edit option once I’m in partition

[tight meadow]

i will check

[ashen thicket]

@tight meadow and also is it normal only one side works ?
When in colloseum for battle I connect on the top it works but not on the bottom side

[tight meadow]

bottom side pin is only for adapter

[ashen thicket]

Ow so it’s normal

[ashen thicket]

I wonder if the battery is the right one
Doesn’t seems to charge or anything

[frank hawk]

1S battery

[ashen thicket]

3.7V 1200mAh that plug and fits great

Maybe it’s not the right one ?

[frank hawk]

it is

[ashen thicket]

It’s the right one ? So why is it not working/ charging ?

[frank hawk]

I don't know, I would try checking the battery voltage to see if it's not too low

[ashen thicket]

What is the voltage of the battery @tight meadow use ?

[frank hawk]

1S is 3Vmin 4.2Vmax

[frank hawk]

I can´t if is 2S looks fat but I don´t think it is

[ashen thicket]

Mine is 3,7V so it should work then

[frank hawk]

I think so

Is 1S I've read it in a few places so I don't know why it's not working for you

still works with usb?

[ashen thicket]

Yep
It’s the only way at the moment

[tight meadow]

3.7v and its charged when plug in usb

[ashen thicket]

How do I know it’s charging or charged ?

And I still didn’t solve the littleFS Tools thing

But for the rest it’s working great

[tight meadow]

it doesnt have indicator but i can be charged

[tight meadow]

and its really weird. can you use other pc?

[ashen thicket]

I don’t have any other pc

But what littleFS Tools is for ? I mean the secrets json file ?
It’s for the wifi connection ?

[tight meadow]

yes. for wifi connection

[ashen thicket]

With what can we use it ? In which case/purpose

[tight meadow]

send a digimon vpet signal via wifi

[ashen thicket]

I left it plugged in for hours it doesn’t seems charged, it’s not turning on

[tight meadow]

you use li-po battery, right?

[ashen thicket]

Yes

I honestly don’t get why the battery is not working
I have no way either to check is there is something wrong with it

[tight meadow]

The board used in this project has its own charging function. If it doesn't charge, it's a battery issue.

[ashen thicket]

But it’s the right voltage and everything

[tight meadow]

Try using a different battery to determine if the problem is with the board or the battery.

[ashen thicket]

I don’t think it’s the board

I meant it’s working plug to usd

But not battery

So I will need to buy another battery…

[frank hawk]

I doubt it

[ashen thicket]

@tight meadow how do you turn it on when it’s on battery ?

[tight meadow]

just like usb plugged.
just it turns on

[ashen thicket]

So if it’s the right battery it just turn on automatically straight away when I plug the battery ?

[tight meadow]

yes.

[ashen thicket]

Ok

When I plug that battery nothing happens

So the battery is the problem

[frank hawk]

I made a manual and sent it to drdo too if can it help someone ç

@ashen thicket I just made a new one and the problem didn't appear. You can go into SPIFFS Tools; I seem to recall that I found the problem there in the first one I made, but once it's done, it won't let me go back in.

[ashen thicket]

I will try again
But I noticed that on ESPconnect if I’m 115200 baud rate littleFS tools is not showing but on other rates it does

[warm verge]

Try pressing the reset button on the motherboard.

[frank hawk]

My first one I made it in 2000000

Not original lilygo (at least without the logo)

[ashen thicket]

Yes same but because it shows on DrDo 115200 I try to do it with that rate but it’s not working

[frank hawk]

same problem first time

it works now?

[tight meadow]

While I haven't fixed the littlefs issue, I've almost completed the ver1 roster and basic functionality. Now, I just need to properly adjust each evolutionary branch tree, and I should be ready for a ver1 release.

[frank hawk]

With evolution bar and care mistake awesome

[tight meadow]

I've uploaded all Digimon sprites from ver. 1 to 5 within 2.5MB. I'll be releasing a test version of ver. 1 soon, and will complete the evolution tree starting with ver. 2.

[frank hawk]

Are you going to add a version selector or are you going to mix them all?

[tight meadow]

botamon will have 5 evolution. it is hard to make 5 eggs.

[frank hawk]

Is it possible to add ACOM or DCOM functionality?

[tight meadow]

it already have wificom function

[frank hawk]

yes, but it doesn´t work with nacabattle, it works in w0rld

[ashen thicket]

Yes finally it works

[tawdry yew]

He’s alive

[frank hawk]

?

[molten tinsel]

Could backgrounds be possible and a day night cycle for them using .bpm images or is that too taxing on ram?

[tight meadow]

At this point, I don't plan on implementing time, sleep, or light, so I haven't implemented a background based on time zone.

[tight meadow]

Ultimately, I want to implement a background with time synchronization via wifi.

Current progress: I've implemented all Digimon up to ver. 5. I'm also working on implementing a single battle function for evolving from Adult to Perfect (currently only Caremis is counted).

I plan to release a trial version without single battle functionality within a few days sorry

[tight meadow]

DigimonVPet-ESP32_260111 is released! I think most of the features and Digimon have been implemented, although there are still some elements that need to be fine-tuned.

https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:7217090

[frank hawk]

here we go!

[ashen thicket]

How does it work ? Do you add this in plus of the monocolor bin ?

[tight meadow]

yes. everything I made is in this file

[ashen thicket]

So I have to redo it like with the monocolor but with this new bin ?

[tight meadow]

thats right

[ashen thicket]

Ok cool
I’m doing it right now

Kind of didn’t want to work at first but it seems to go through the process now

@tight meadow but is it only the vpet then ?

[tight meadow]

I told you everything i made is in this file

[ashen thicket]

Ok I did everything but when restarting it it shows me Agumon

[tight meadow]

You can access the add-ons from the 4th menu

[ashen thicket]

Ow I get it ok

Thank you

[gleaming surge]

Is this one, right?
16MB is the better one, correct?

[tight meadow]

You must use the 4mb version with named t-display

[gleaming surge]

Model T-Display V1.1

I'm going to make 2 for me and a friend

[graceful depot]

So it won't work on 16mb ?

[tight meadow]

at least i know

[crimson jasper]

ohhh so it have problems with the 16mb version? i think was only my problem of consistency.

[tight meadow]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GDbCAzMWOW4&feature=youtu.be

I made a teaser video
I will add and improve new features as ideas come to me.

[warm verge]

Does this version not have sleep mode?

[frank hawk]

no

[warm verge]

So does that mean the screen has to stay on?

[frosty pond]

SHINKA!

@warm verge has evolved into Baby II!

[tight meadow]

yes

[warm verge]

Thank you for your reply

[molten tinsel]

Sound a possibility and color menu and attacks?

[tight meadow]

Software features are being considered, but there are no plans to add any additional physical components to make it as easy as possible for others to use.

[tight meadow]

I will make sleep mode next version

[tight meadow]

Next Plans
Support for new WiFiCOM versions
Minor bug fixes
Add sleep mode for vpet

But in esp32, when entering sleep mode, the evolution timer will not run.

[coarse crystal]

Automoderator:
"Spies and thieves!", she spits. "Spies and thieves!"

[warm verge]

Please check. There seems to be a problem with Acom Complete. When jogressing in the Perfect stage, the screen displays "vaccine," but the actual result is the result when jogressing with data. The result displayed as data is the result when jogressing with a virus, and the result displayed as virus is the result when jogressing with a vaccine. Also, when jogressing in the Ultimate stage, the Digimon displayed on the screen do not match.

[thick bane]

Configure ext_wakeup and timer_wakeup before deep sleep.
Wake up every hour to check evo_timer.
If evo_timer < 1 hour, set timer_wakeup = evo_timer.
Otherwise, return to deep sleep.

[tight meadow]

pendulum color? I will check

[tight meadow]

thank you. I will try

[coarse crystal]

Gave +1 Digi-rep to @thick bane (current: #28 - 74)

[rapid wren]

You might not need to bother with timers running during sleep mode. Since the game state is deterministic, when entering the sleep mode you should know already exactly when you need to wake up based on whichever game timer is due to expire first. When transitioning to sleep set the wake up timer to that value and have it keep track of which timer is the one that is waking it (poop timer, evo timer, call timer). Then during wake up run the appropriate routine based on that kind of timer. Just be sure to keep a timestamp when going to sleep and waking and update all timers based on the difference.

[thick bane]

@tight meadow Here is the Arduino code I'm using to play DMC sound on ESP32 core 0.
It plays sound in the background, and I think this would make the project better.

[gleaming surge]

Open source is amazing with the community involved.

[tight meadow]

https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:7217090
260122 version is released
Basic sleep mode
Support for new WiFiCOM versions
Minor bug fixes(pendulum digirom fix)

[timber stirrup]

Bro, thank you.
Version 260122 has been installed, but the sleep function is malfunctioning.
Pressing and holding the BOTTOM puts the device into sleep mode; however, pressing it again a few seconds later fails to wake it up. After entering sleep mode, only pressing the TOP button can wake it up. I’m reporting this issue to you specifically.

[frosty pond]

@timber stirrup has leveled up! (0 ➜ 1)

[timber stirrup]

👍

[graceful depot]

What is the difference between digimon add-ons with digimon V-Pet?

[tight meadow]

addons have only addons without vpet

[tight meadow]

Wake from sleep mode with just one button press, and this is intended.

[graceful depot]

So does it mean I need to flash both bins ? Esp32 bin together with the add-ons bin? 😅

[tight meadow]

if you dont want vpet, flash addon only file

[tight meadow]

but vpet bin file has all of addons

[timber stirrup]

After pressing bottom, it was like a system halted, and pressing other buttons had no response.

[tight meadow]

can I see a video?

[timber stirrup]

Suddenly it's normal again, there's no problem

[frosty pond]

SHINKA!

@timber stirrup has evolved into Baby I!

[flint torrent]

What is the control system for the Lilygo vpets?

[timber stirrup]

The last three options in the pendulum color are for crashing situations.

[warm verge]

Acom Complete still has issues. I tried to Jogress Pendulum 7's Marin Bullmon into Kaguyamon with "Perfect Da", but it evolved into Amaterasumon.

[frosty pond]

@warm verge has leveled up! (1 ➜ 2)

[tight meadow]

oh, I will fix it.

[tight meadow]

I think I missed a line while editing the code... and I can't test it because I don't have penc right now. I'll update as soon as possible.

[radiant copper]

Hey, is this UI from my open source program?

[tight meadow]

I dm to you

[radiant copper]

Reminds me of analog pockets, UI

Handheld emulation console that has a black and white user interface that has it a highly detailed image of the base on screen

[tight meadow]

I fixed some missing lines in the acom complete code. After completing the album, I noticed some sprite issues with some Digimon, so I'll fix them. I've also modified the Caremiss and evolution logic to be closer to the original DM20. The revised version will be updated soon.

[thick bane]

Tested on my T-Display.
Power consumption:
85–96 mA (active)
1.18 mA (sleep)
Since it is difficult to further reduce power consumption during deep sleep due to hardware limitations,
you may lower the CPU frequency during the menu or during idle animations.

setCpuFrequencyMhz(80);
setCpuFrequencyMhz(160);
setCpuFrequencyMhz(240);```Running at 240 MHz provides the best performance, but it will drain the battery faster.

[tight meadow]

Scheduled Updates

1. A com complete DigiROM fix
2. Care mistake logic correction
3. Improved sleep mode for low-power operation
4. Sprite fix
5. Addition of new features

The new feature is an extension of the adapter. Without having to conduct battles on the vpet itself, battle results can be viewed visually on the ESP32. Further modifications to the logic and UI are needed, and ultimately, battles will be broadcast to another screen via OBS.

[prime owl]

@tight meadow I also tried making it.

[tight meadow]

very nice

[gleaming surge]

Is this battery compatible?

[frank hawk]

yes

[gleaming surge]

Thanks

[coarse crystal]

Gave +1 Digi-rep to @frank hawk (current: #560 - 2)

[woeful current]

could i ask whats the material you used for the prongs ?

[gleaming surge]

Resistor legs... lol.

[gleaming surge]

Theres a video up here:

[tight meadow]

you can use rrsistor leg and I am using nikel plate

[frosty pond]

@tight meadow has leveled up! (12 ➜ 13)

[tight meadow]

opps, mine was 16mb and It works. I was wrong.

[graceful depot]

Yes. Mine is also 16mb

[woeful current]

thank you haha ! i didnt like the look of the resistor legs thats why i asked

[frosty pond]

SHINKA!

@woeful current has evolved into Baby I!

[gleaming surge]

Geezzz now i just got 2 units 4mb... Oh god, hope it works

[flint torrent]

Glad I waited! I'm gonna get 4 in a bit with some scholarship money

Use it for this as well as some school projects

[jagged pilot]

When i flashing the bin file, the settings and ports are all correct, but there's no log output. Does anyone know what the problem is?

[jagged pilot]

Could it be because the resistors have to be soldered on first? My motherboard just arrived, and the resistors are still in transit

I updated the driver, but it’s still the same issue

[frank hawk]

Not for this

[jagged pilot]

the esp32 download tool

keeps prompting Waiting for idle.

[frank hawk]

@jagged pilot that´s all I can do for you 😅

[jagged pilot]

thx

[warm verge]

The current version's power-saving mode has dramatically increased the device's operating time compared to the previous version. I'm very satisfied. 👍

[jagged pilot]

ok thx

[tight meadow]

The next version will reduce power consumption even when idle.

Scheduled Updates

1. A com complete DigiROM fix O
2. Care mistake logic correction O
3. Improved sleep mode for low-power operation ◇
4. Sprite fix ◇
5. New feature Battle Projector ◇

[tight meadow]

DMOG-format Digirom signals don't contain information about specific Digimon. Therefore, Agumon and Betamon were designated as representative Digimon.

[barren night]

👍 👍 👍 👍

[open oracle]

Question can we connect this to W0rld? Or not?

Like using it like a acom/dcom

[spring badge]

Thankyou drdo, amazing work

[spring badge]

Yes we can 👍

[open oracle]

alright thanks

[tight meadow]

oh my god this is so cool

[upper temple]

So long as you aren't sending modified or pirated roms, it should be good to use with w0rld as a com unit 🤔

[open oracle]

it doesn't show the green on 0x0 am i doing it wrong?

[tight meadow]

you should check the checkbox on the left

https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:7217090

[open oracle]

me : idk my right or lefts

[tight meadow]

Version 260131 has been released.

1. A com complete DigiROM fix O
2. Care mistake logic correction O
3. Improved sleep mode for low-power operation △
   3-1 I need to test if the evolution timer is ticking in low power mode.
   3-2 Long pressing both buttons to enter deep sleep mode still exists
   3-2-1 Deep sleep mode also serves as a refreshing mode, so if the menu does not run, try entering deep sleep mode and then exiting it to run it again.
4. New feature Battle Projector △
   4-1 The video output program needs to be adjusted and is currently being adjusted.

[open oracle]

found it

[tight meadow]

Many people ask this question, but Digimon evolution is definitely possible. They can evolve into each version of Baby2 by adjusting the amount of training while in Botamon state, and can then evolve to the next stage by adjusting the amount of training and Care Mistake.

[open oracle]

alright i managed to program it now i just need to do the hardest part

[tight meadow]

Can I upload your manual on my thingiverse page?

[tight meadow]

I confirmed that Digimon evolved in a low-power environment.

[frank hawk]

That's why I make it 👍

[spring badge]

I dont know if anyone can help metoday it stopped working with all my colour devices but works fien with mono, there are no shorts but is there anything else that might cause it

[hearty sorrel]

If I understand correctly, it's a mix of V-Pet and ACOM, right? Can the Digimon that are bred be used in W0rld? Does it have several V-Pet sets available, and can more be added? Thanks.

[tight meadow]

You can think of the vpet function and the rest of the add-ons as separate. You can use w0rld, etc. by linking acom, etc. to other vpets, but the vpet on this device itself cannot be linked with other vpets yet.

[tight meadow]

Are you saying that the addon does not work with the color device?

[spring badge]

I think so. The best i can get out of it is an error or retry on penc and d3

[tight meadow]

which addon? i think COLO

[spring badge]

COMM and wifi also including the usb serial

All my black and white devices still work perfectly with all the addons and all my cplour devices do still work with my other acom

[hearty sorrel]

And can all existing DigiEggs be added, or does it only have memory for a few?

[tight meadow]

I could add more eggs, but I'd rather dedicate that space to more useful add-ons.

[tight meadow]

Which prong do you use? All add-ons, except adapters, use the prong above the screen.

[spring badge]

Just the top prongs as i havent added the second prongs yet. The thing is it worked fine before i went to bed and woke up to not be fine

Im really not sure what is wrong with it

[spring badge]

So adding the second set of prongs and using the adapt addon the mono enters battle mode but the penc still throws out an error

And to make it more confusing the d3 colour now works with the COLO addon

[frank hawk]

Someone mentioned that the color options are more sensitive to the voltage of the communication pins, but I can't tell you more.

[spring badge]

so being powered by usb could be an issue if its higher voltage than necessary?

[spring badge]

omg usb was the issue, i decided to try plugging it into my phone as that is what i used to power it to unlock all the backgrounds and it works fine

[frosty pond]

SHINKA!

@spring badge has evolved into Baby II!

[spring badge]

might not seemed like you helped me much but it really did help so thankyou

Almost done. Maintaining a stable frame rate is difficult, and I'd like to use PC VOUT for the vpet screen, but it's not easy.

And I found out that wificom's serial doesn't work without json file, so I fixed it thanks to daen

[keen verge]

What's the volt of the battery?

[keen verge]

How many mah?

[tight meadow]

There is no set rule. It just depends on the size. I use 1000mah.

[keen verge]

3.7v is okey?

[tight meadow]

lipo battery is 3.7v, okay

[static quiver]

Does it work? Getting a dockable wifi-com in the same package would push me to start this project asap.

[frank hawk]

I still have to finish building mine, but of course it works. It's really just a stand and the EP32 box put together and arranged a bit nicely.

Excuse me, one question, do I need the 4MB or 16MB version?

[tight meadow]

both can work

[jagged pilot]

@frigid nebula buy the 16mb version

[jagged pilot]

If your LilyGO T-Display fails to connect to ESPConnect, you can add a 1.27 mm toggle switch by soldering fly wires at the corresponding location as shown in the image below.

When the switch is ON, it will connect to ESPConnect 100% of the time.
After uploading is complete, you can turn the switch OFF.

Then press the reset button.

thats nice information. thank you

If it doesn't work according to the manual, try increasing the baud rate.

[keen verge]

Schying

[tight meadow]

The file path is strange

[keen verge]

Or just patch again together?

Should I patch the esp32 before the add on?

[tight meadow]

you put a wrong json file

[tight meadow]

I'm debating whether to apply it or not because of the ratio of the background sprite.

[static quiver]

@tight meadow, do you have any plans to open source the code like the original project?

[tight meadow]

some sources are not mine. i think it is hard to open all sources

[keen verge]

Should I redo the patching of json file?

The hotspot could be the problem, or it could be something else. I tested it and released it. If it doesn't work, you should ask in the wificom community. I'll help as much as I can.

Hello guys, just wanna ask if there's an Evolution guide? Thank you!!!

[static quiver]

@tight meadow, this project gained a lot of traction on the brazilian digimon v-pet community and some people were asking if you'll ever open the code so we can customise the implemented digimons with our own rosters.

[coarse crystal]

Actually, the plural of Digimon is Pokémon.

[tight meadow]

I'll be releasing a guide to changing Digimon sprites and names. Since I didn't develop all the parts myself, I can't release the source code.

[frigid nebula]

Can more ACOM codes be added? For example, for the Vpet Mini, Pendulum X, and Pendulum X Jogress?

[frank hawk]

Brazilian Digimon are diferent?

https://youtu.be/6oHYgG5DFSM?si=cE-Y9MYIskiSHuGl

Ok nevermind

[frigid nebula]

Wouldn't I need to add another ground and another pin to connect the pendulum x?

[tight meadow]

just use 1 signal and 1 gnd

[gleaming surge]

No... You can use just 1 ground just fine, even with normal A-Coms

[gleaming surge]

Just amazing...
Let me ask, how about animation frames? Can we make the Digimon move like PenC/DMX/PenZ(more fluid and natural).

[keen verge]

Just flash sir?

[tight meadow]

did you read readme.txt?

this is evolution chart

[keen verge]

just download sir,. reading it right now,. 🙂

[tight meadow]

you mean fps?

[gleaming surge]

Nop, sprite rotation.
DM20 uses the OG rotation and DMX uses a different and better one

Except for the DMC, all new models use Pen20th sprite rotation as a base, and it gives so much life to Digimon moving on screen.

[tight meadow]

I understand what you mean. I'll think about how to apply it.

Hi drdo, I have a question. Can I use my Pendulum X to be part of the tournament? Can I add one more prong to this Lilygo Vpet and play with this device against other 2 prong?

[frosty pond]

SHINKA!

@spare widget has evolved into Child!

[static quiver]

Any 3 prong device should be compatible if it's based on the A-com project.

https://dmcomm.github.io/guide/nano/

[static quiver]

Correction. It looks like there's a limited number of devices implemented on the Tournament functionality and the PenX is not one of them.

It would be possible, but it's not currently implemented.

[tight meadow]

I can do that but I need to analyze digiroms and I sold penx before so I dont have penx to test

[static quiver]

W0rld has compatibility with those devices. Maybe you could ask for it.

[tight meadow]

analyze is not problem. I have to test it and that is problem

[static quiver]

Oh, yeah. That makes it much harder.

@tight meadow, one question. Is there still a version of the binary that doesn't have the v-pet module? Only the connection functionalities.

[tight meadow]

I could make it myself, but people kept asking me which bin to use, so I deleted that version.

[static quiver]

I see. It's tough, most of the people don't really read any of the info. Thank you for the offer, I'll just keep the normal bin for now.

The guide says use a 3.9k and a 5.6k resistors. Will a 3.3k and a 5.1k work?

[static quiver]

The A-Com project explains that similar values are likely to work.

I do recommend testing before soldering if you choose to go on with different resistors.

[thick bane]

ESP32 runs on 3.3V, this chart is for 5V devices I think.

[frank hawk]

the table is fine

[magic quest]

I'm struggling to get the A-Com part of it to work properly. I'm attempting to jogress my BlitzGreymon with CresGarurumon. Every time I connect it to my DMC, I get the "Retry" message. Haven't had any success with any connections. Is it probably my soldering contacts?

[gleaming surge]

plug the vpet first then you click to send code.

If it's not working, maybe you should check the pins

[upper temple]

Have you tried pressing the b button on your DMC to initiate the jogress? Dunno if it's on all devices, I figure sometimes you need to press the b button after connecting to confirm

[keen verge]

Is this correct? Why error?

[tight meadow]

First, connect the two prongs, select the jog in the pendulum and put it in standby, then transfer the digirom from the esp.
Most comms work like this

[tight meadow]

esp32 IS NOT VPET
You shouldn't connect it that way

[keen verge]

How to transfer digirom to esp sir?

I saw your video in youtube,. Thats what im doing,

But got error

Already got it sir... Maybe the problem is the connection in my esp,. Angle some position to able to connect

Same condition??

[tight meadow]

no you are sending digirom and connecting prongs

[tight meadow]

My video is different from what I said, but I connected the prongs right after I sent the DigiROM. You connected the prongs too late.

[keen verge]

Its okey now

Thank you sir

I ended up resoldering my joints and that seemed to do the trick. Got my Omegamon Alter-S. Thanks @gleaming surge & @upper temple for the tips.

Because you're using bottom side of the esp32. That's your error and also you first connect the toy to the esp32 and then you press the button.

[static mesa]

Hey @tight meadow any chance of you releasing the source of this in the future? I'd love to get it as an alternate firmware for my open vpet device.
I'd also be interested in working together or creating a port of my firmware for you device.

[tight meadow]

I've provided almost only vpet to a few people, excluding addons and code I didn't develop. Is that okay?

[static mesa]

I've already managed to port the base firmware to my device. I was more curious in the changes you've made to the firmware. But if you don't wish to release the source, that's fully understandable 🙂

[tight meadow]

check the dm

[static mesa]

Got it booting, will require a little extra effort to support the 240x240 display.

[daring violet]

Sweet case

[tight meadow]

You need to modify the LCD library of esp32, and upload the files in the data folder sent together to littlefs to see the Digimon.

[static mesa]

My device has only got 128kb littlefs partition, but I might be able to reuse the ota partition and store them in there instead.

I still need to push the graphics down a bit to not get cut off by the rounder corners, but so far so good 🙂

[static mesa]

I'll mess around with this some more another day.

I think the sprite converter is a little off place. When I import a DMC to bin, it will have some differences: eat, training, happy animations are not right.

And also, it only converts DMC sprites(15 png) so I created a script to convert PenC sprites (12 png) to DMC, in case you wanna incorporate to your code.

[static mesa]

Oooh could you send me the PenC version? I have all my sprites stored in PenC format.

[gleaming surge]

There u go

[static mesa]

Oh it just reorganizes the images? I made literally the exact same script but in english 😛

[gleaming surge]

Oh that's because the main script already exists, do you wanna script that converts it to .bin in a single one?

[frosty pond]

@gleaming surge has leveled up! (9 ➜ 10)

[static mesa]

Nah I can manage that myself, but thank you! ❤️

[tight meadow]

okay i will check

[gleaming surge]

Can you check your inbox, please?

[uncut cradle]

If you guys dont mind me asking. Where did you get the sprites for your devices? I am wanting to make my own vpet but I am having trouble with finding the sprites:/

[static quiver]

The project uses the DMC sprites.

@uncut cradle, you can also check official and fan-made sprites here: https://dmc-sprite-database.vercel.app/

[gleaming surge]

@tight meadow i managed to replicate the PenC sprite animation + BG if you are willing to add to you code, just msg me inbox

[upper temple]

Patience, Rurounik
Let the man cook

[gleaming surge]

lol no worries...

[upper temple]

OH SNAP, IS THAT TIME STRANGER?

[gleaming surge]

Metal Empire BG

[upper temple]

Still sic tho

[static quiver]

@gleaming surge is cooking himself. lol

Man has been dropping bomb after bomb on the brazilian group chat.

I hope drdo accepts the features onto the main code. A lot of really great things for the v-pet module.

[tight meadow]

I'm currently working on bug fixes and usability adjustments, and considering adding backgrounds. I'm also studying clock and RTC-related features.

[tight meadow]

I actually like the current dot-style background. But now that I look at it, the color vpet background looks pretty good. I'll review it so I can choose to include it.

[keen verge]

@gleaming surge how to add sir

[tight meadow]

can i goto that group chat?

[tight meadow]

https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:7217090
260308 version is released
Bug(sprite and effort heart) fixes and intuitive UI improvements (new back button)

[static quiver]

It's a general brazilian group chat about digimon v-pets that me and rurounik are a part of. As we speak mostly in portuguese, I don't know how productive that'd be for you.

It's just that rurounik has been kindly sharing his progress with features on there. We are really excited.

[knotty mural]

This ESP32 project is so great. If you only work on the shell in the future, you could use it as a hologram.

[magic quest]

The back button is nice. It definitely makes a difference. The feeding animation can't be skipped anymore though. It makes feeding much slower. Also, is it normal for strength to only be gainable by feeding vitamins? When I train, it only boosts the effort hearts, not the strength hearts.

[noble kayak]

this is so fire

[frank hawk]

if the green background is removed can be so cool

[upper temple]

I stand corrected 🫡

[tight meadow]

It was not intentional that feeding could not be skipped. I will fix it.

[knotty mural]

It's a really good idea, but I'm just satisfied with the current situation because I don't have the ability to do modding.

[frank hawk]

We can design a case with the screen exposed, but with electronics over the display, not in the base is weird

Maybe Drdo can turn the image upside down

[past egret]

Hi,bro.I don't know why, but after generating bins through make_aim_bin, the order of sprites is incorrect

[tight meadow]

That's because the order of the images in the sprite database is different from the code I initially wrote.

[past egret]

Is it a mapping relationship? How should I modify it

[tight meadow]

just modify .py file

[past egret]

I know. What I mean is, what is the correct mapping? Currently, it is 0: 0 in the script,
1: 1,
2: 7,
3: 8,
4: 9,
5: 10,
6: 11,
7: 12,
8: 13,
9: 14,
10: 2,
11: 3,
12: 4,
13: 5,
14: 6

[tight meadow]

Just download the DMC sprites from the database and use the tool.

[past egret]

Is dmc-sprite-database? My sprites should be fine. I'll give it another try. Thank you

[coarse crystal]

Gave +1 Digi-rep to @tight meadow (current: #57 - 41)

[tight meadow]

yes

[past egret]

It seems that the issue is not with the conversion, but rather that the indexes of the sprites for the eat and attack animations of some digimon in the program are reversed

[tight meadow]

oh..i will check

[magic quest]

Got my Digimon to an Adult stage and then the evolution timer keeps resetting itself. Is that normal? He's age 33. I have 0 care mistakes and fill hearts when they drop. Can't seem to get it to evolve to a Perfect.

[tight meadow]

you have to battle

[tight meadow]

see this

[magic quest]

Ah, I see. I battled, but probably not enough. Thank you for the info. 🙏

[jagged pilot]

Hello drdo, I checked the latest 8M version firmware released on March 8 and found that the projection mode is no longer available, but I saw it in your YouTube video. Also, is the 4M version temporarily not going to be updated?

[tight meadow]

The projector mode and tournament mode overlapped, so the projector was removed. The 4m version is on hold.

I can make 4m excluding tournament mode sprites.

[tight meadow]

To-Do List
Sprite change (eating/attacking)
comm bug fix
poop

[jagged pilot]

ok,thx lot

[magic quest]

It looks like the poop bug is still there too. Sometimes it doesn’t clear even after a flush, but once I reset the device and load, the poop disappears.

[tight meadow]

I am aware of it, but no matter how much I modify the code, it won't get fixed.

[slim cliff]

Got all the stuff for this, can't seem to get my computer to recognize the Lilygo TTGO T-Display v1.1 at all tho. I'm using a Surface Pro 4, the only COM ports that exist are two COM Serial over Bluetooth ports. No matter what I do it simply won't cooperate. Really not sure what's up with my computer but I may just need to get a newer/different one.

It may be a bad driver somewhere, but I've reinstalled a few of them that I think may be the problem, no luck on that though

[radiant copper]

Do you know any companies that do 3d printing

[nimble glacier]

There are two type of communication chip i guess. CH340k and CH9102F. Which one should i get?

Ops just found out the original part is CP2014 but due to rising price manufacturers change the parts.

[tight meadow]

I didn't know this device was divided like them. I just bought and used this
https://www.devicemart.co.kr/goods/view?no=14907875

[tight meadow]

ch9102

[gleaming surge]

Try ESPconnect website

https://thelastoutpostworkshop.github.io/ESPConnect/

[tight meadow]

Is the Surface 4 Pro a PC?

[tight meadow]

jlc3dp

[slim cliff]

It’s a laptop

[slim cliff]

Unfortunately this doesn’t work either. No COM ports or drivers created/found when you plug the device in means no communication with it.

[frank hawk]

Does the cable you're using carry data or is it only for charging?

[slim cliff]

It carries data yeah. I think my Surface Pro 4 is really stupid maybe

It has actually caused me a lot of issues in the past sometimes

It read the CH341A DiM programmer I slapped together just fine for some reason

But this it wants to fight me on

[knotty mural]

If the dim programmer can read it, ESP32 would read it well too.

[slim cliff]

One would hope so. But again, there’s no COM port for it on my computer.

There are two, and they are for Bluetooth it seems

Both when I plug it in and when I remove it

There is no change in the amounts of COM ports, and writing to those two ports always leads to failure.

[slim cliff]

I’m ordering a new USB C data cable to see if this helps, since that seems like the last logical choice I can make atp, if it doesn’t I die ig.

[frank hawk]

🤔

[slim cliff]

Delivery driver is otw

Got it same day

[slim cliff]

I guess I die

-# Cuz it actually worked and this means my data cable is just ancient and there may be a short in the wire

[upper temple]

Least it wasnt the device

[slim cliff]

Getting my cortisol spiked by a data cable

True!!!

My SP4 is still p stupid tho

It does stupid things

IT’S ALIVE

https://tenor.com/view/bethany-gif-3578294594390901589

Now to just solder the connections on

Also the battery end was not correct when I bought it. I’ve touched the ends of the battery wires together with the wire that came with it and it turns on normally. I’ll probably connect these two wires with some solder and shrink stuff

[frosty pond]

@slim cliff has leveled up! (12 ➜ 13)

[slim cliff]

Can’t believe I got my cortisol spiked by a bad data cable

[slim cliff]

Got the goober working. Prong also work right, I think I did a good job soldering the resistors to the TTGO as well as modifying the battery ending

[radiant copper]

Wait, do you have your own 3D printer?

[slim cliff]

No I commissioned the shell online

I wouldn’t really recommend them

Tbh

Price and some defects with the shell made it not worth the price

I am gonna have to put a little tape on the back probably cuz of the quality

We DID have a 3D printer at one point

But my boyfriend bought it and he didn’t like the noxious chemicals it produced

It was a resin 3D Printer

And tbh the print/build quality was fire

We made some mini figures for like TTRPG stuff

[radiant copper]

Meet

It’s usually recommended to have a open space when using that type of printer

With constant airflow in well ventilation

[slim cliff]

Yeah. I just asked him and he said he sold it anyway. I’m prob gonna save up for one tbh

[radiant copper]

Depending on your state, you may have to show ID

Me, I didn’t have the space in money for it

[slim cliff]

I’m in Texas personally (unfortunately)

There’s less restrictions on somethings

There’s a Navy Pawn shop down the street where you can buy a gun like it’s candy

[radiant copper]

😨

I honestly can’t see where I’m from but they’re considering set laws

Last time I checked house bills

And again, nobody sells 3-D printers at a pawnshop
We find one at a pawnshop. It is usually damaged beyond all repair.

[slim cliff]

Ah yeah it def seems like something that’d be better to buy online from a seller

[frank hawk]

https://tenor.com/view/man-im-tired-of-being-right-ace-ventura-gif-11174346

[frank hawk]

Resine printer

[slim cliff]

I got tired of having to open the shell and pull the battery out every time I wanna hit the Reset button so I melted a hole in the shell with one of my soldering tips. Good enough ig.

[frank hawk]

A switch for cut the battery

[slim cliff]

Wish I would have bought a switch fr

I’ll probably make another digikey order for more flux, resistors maybe, and a switch.

[slim cliff]

I’ve resorted to providing it with power from a weak power bank to turn it on and off until I can get a switch in

When I’m done I just unplug it

[slim cliff]

Calumon sticker swag on the back battery plate now, since this thing can make Digimon evolve.

Even if it is a little tacky.

[raw ridge]

@mystic jacinth I found the info

[mystic jacinth]

Anyone have a link to the exact places to get the electronics needed for this build? Definitely want to make one of these very soon

[tight meadow]

Nice!!

[frosty pond]

@keen verge has leveled up! (3 ➜ 4)

[slim cliff]

We appreciate everything you do to make this operational. I love it since I can change the sprites to my favorite Digimon

[raw ridge]

Seconding this. Or can I pay someone to build me one? 🌝

[slim cliff]

I got my soldering iron, soldering wire, and resistors on DigiKey, though the 3.9K resistor I bought is a little chunky and it can be a pain to solder that on when it covers the holes on the board.

The battery I bought off AliExpress did not fit, it was a PH20 end and so I had to strip the end of that battery and wire it to the end that the TTGO T-Display came with.

I could put together the guts of it for someone at least but for rn I don’t have the cash to stock the TTGO T-Display, or the battery it needs on hand. I also need to get 1/6 or 1/8 size resistors cuz the 1/4 size 3.9k resistors I have are too big. Also it could take up to 2 weeks of wait to receive all of those parts.

Also don’t I have a 3D Printer sadly. I had to get my shell made online. I still need to check if my local library has a 3D Printer tbh tho.

[slim cliff]

@raw ridge @mystic jacinth

[raw ridge]

Can you dm me? It won’t let me dm you

[slim cliff]

Oh yeah sorry mb

I have to friend you

[raw ridge]

All good!

[slim cliff]

Cuz I’m just trying to get away from some old friends

[mystic jacinth]

Oh I actually wouldn't mind waiting for the guts. I have a friend that could 3d print the shell and I wouldn't mind having to get a battery and screen if needed

[slim cliff]

The TTGO T-Display has a screen built onto the board thankfully

[mystic jacinth]

Oh awesome!

[jagged pilot]

Hello, can video output be enabled in Tourn mode? I'm using a full‑function Type‑C to connect to a monitor, but I don't know why there's no signal.

[static mesa]

The esp32 cannot output video over usb (directly to a monitor)

[tight meadow]

you checked com port number?

[keen verge]

Good evening everyone

[jagged pilot]

yes,but the monitor cannot found the signal

[tight meadow]

let me check via video

[slim cliff]

I wrote this for anyone who may be confused on creating custom sprites/rosters for this device. This is easier for me to understand personally at least.

[keen verge]

Why always agumon sir.

[slim cliff]

Create a file called "name.txt" and type the new digimon name in the txt file. Otherwise I believe it uses the default names.

It needs to be in the appropriate folder also

For example if you have Jyarimon as 02 in your roster, just type "jyarimon" in name.txt and then send that name.txt to your device through LittleFS under the digimon/02 folder

I’m currently working on archiving many of the projects on this server.

[tight meadow]

It is not possible to support all devices. In particular, the Dterminal only contains and recognizes a very limited number of Digimon.

[slim cliff]

Oh this is what he meant

Yeah it’s only gonna display Digimon you have in the roster of your device unfortunately

[jagged pilot]

I'm using a full‑function Type‑C port but the display has no signal; I'm going to try the HDMI port

[tight meadow]

you have to use my viewer program via pc
not hdmi

[jagged pilot]

ok，i will try

[jagged pilot]

the viewer program is in the page of tools？

[tight meadow]

yes

[tight meadow]

[jagged pilot]

Ok,thx a lot

[plain night]

Hi,would you like to clarify whether the inclusion of resistors is indispensable in the development of the VPET, considering the intention not to use it as an DCOM? Would it be feasible to employ it exclusively as a VPET for wireless connectivity purposes?

Sorry, but I'm not good with soldering 😔

[barren night]

也不是必须焊接，电阻是必须要有的。你只要用力缠紧了，也勉强能用，哈哈哈

[plain night]

I believed that resitors were needed only for the purpose of using DCOM

[barren night]

如果你只是当做Vpet使用的话，不需要电阻

[plain night]

That was my doubt, thanks

[slim cliff]

Yeah the resistors will connect to 3mm nickel plated strip fashioned into prongs or the resistors will be used as the prongs themselves if you want to use the WifiCom or ACOM built into the device.

That is where the soldering comes in.

[keen verge]

Hello guys, planning to use this in digimon world app,. How to set up?? My Acom wont konek

Always failed

[slim cliff]

I haven’t had much success with this with w0rld using the USB Serial function (ACOM/DCOM) but the WiFiCOM function works well enough with it. Sometimes if I haven’t been in a battle for a long time and try to initiate one, I have connection issues. So I have to Reconnect WiFi, close and open the game.

I get around this by Reconnecting WiFi, turning WiFiCOM off and on in w0rld settings, reloading my Digimon, and then proceeding with battle. This usually prevents crashing or freezing from happening for me when initiating a battle after not using the WiFiCOM for so long.

Perhaps somewhere I have messed up a setting or flashed something incorrectly maybe. Idk if others have gotten the ACOM/DCOM function to work for w0rld. The USB Serial setting does work for Alpha Terminal/Serial on PC at least for sending DigiROMs.

It has quite a few DigiROMs preloaded under the COMM menu so Alpha Terminal/Serial is something I never really use

[keen verge]

Can you make a video maam?

[runic sentinel]

I encountered this problem too.

I tried to connect the digivice D3 US v.1, but it didn't work.

The alphacom code pen z is also not working.

[tight meadow]

I purchased a Penz to check for acom errors. I plan to comprehensively verify the errors and proceed with the update.

[slim cliff]

Unfortunately at work atm

[frosty pond]

@slim cliff has leveled up! (13 ➜ 14)

[keen verge]

Go go sir!! Thank you for the future updates!!

[slim cliff]

Working on Tamagotchi sprites for the Lilygo WifiCOM, I thought it would be a funny idea. Instead of battling Digimon, I will be battling Tamas. I'll update if I give up or if I manage to make all like 80 something sprites for the device, It seems I can reuse some sprites but if I have something wrong I will have to fix it when flashing/testing.

Many will be easy I assume, as I'm eyeballing the designs straight from the spriter's resource webpage, but I may have to rescale/redesign larger adult Tamas if they are not 16x16. I don't know if I'll color them, maybe.

I am only pulling V3 Tama sprites for now but will maybe pick from other devices if they can fit the 48x48 upscaled from 16x16

So far Teletchi doesn’t look too janky, I set the FPS low enough to see how it goes through its different animations in the preview screen in the corner

[slim cliff]

Ran into an issue where I realized Digimon have more stages of evolution than tamagotchi, so all Baby I forms will just have to be the Tamagotchi egg from V1. They’ll all likely evolve into the Senior forms for Stage VI+.

[slim cliff]

So far I've got 5 In-Training II Tamas (Baby) drawn up, but the problem is choosing their evolution paths. I have to map the evolution trees all out though, before I make any more.

Atp tho the evolution trees will be based on stages, no official evolution paths cuz I don't wanna overwork my brain trying to understand Tama lines

[slim cliff]

There are simply not enough unique Teenager Tamas between P1, P2, and V2 and V3 Connection device to fill all the Champion/Adult slots in the roster. I need like 50+ Teenager Tamagotchi to do that. I may have to stick with just Babytchi for the Baby I slot instead of the egg. Which means Baby II will be Child stage, Child level would be Teenager, and Adult would become Adult. This still isn’t enough stages, so potentially having Adult level evolve to Perfect level will be Adult Tamas turning into different Adults. Like Violetchi -> Memetchi and etc. With Perfect to Ultimate -> Adult to Senior.

[slim cliff]

Been tweaking some of the animation files, I think I had some frames mixed up. I also had some of them backwards, little Babytchi was eating backwards.

Also I’ve narrowed it down to only needing like 5/15 unique sprites.

[slim cliff]

I’ve got about 15 Tamas finished so far, if anyone wants when I’m done I can release the PNGs for you guys to use. I can prepackage them as the anim.bin files or provide the PNGs if you wish to add color.

Atm I’m trying to do the entirety of Connection V2 and V3, maybe borrowing some unique debug characters from the P1/P2 and some extras from Angelgotchi/Devilgotchi.

They need to be 48x48 which is why I have to fix them by hand.

[livid stirrup]

Can I put several wifi ssid in the secrets.json? I want to be able to use it at home and workplace, and it's hassle to change the id each time I use it

[craggy dew]

Thank you guys for making and documenting this thing. You Rock

[tight meadow]

You cannot do that. It is not my problem, but a fundamental issue with wificom, so an update is required from the original wificom creator.

Bug fix(eating/attacking sprite change, eating skip)

I purchased Penz and tested it, and the ACOM function worked normally.

[frank hawk]

cool colors

[slim cliff]

I tried this and it kinda made my WifiCOM freeze. I struggled to get it to turn back on afterwards.

I had to remove the secrets.json and reupload a clean one

I was scared maybe I’d have to reformat it

Which, I did anyways eventually when I started working on the Tamagotchi sprites

[runic sentinel]

Do you have a 4 mg file for Lilly Do you have any?

[frank hawk]

@runic sentinel there are two files 8mb and 4mb

i think

[tight meadow]

i will make new 4mb version

[frank hawk]

is not the second file? whats that then

[tight meadow]

look the date

[runic sentinel]

Is this file? It's February, so I'm wondering if the upload file has been updated yet for 4.mg

[static quiver]

#1444349534225567875 message

4MB version has been a little behind since the tournament update. The total size surpassed the available space on the 4MB version.

So you'll have to stick to that older version for now, or buy a 16MB board.

[runic sentinel]

Okay, since I'm using two versions, I think there's also a 4mb version so I can cancel it.

[slim cliff]

@tight meadow thank you for the update, I uploaded my test sprite (it's just some numbers for each frame) and I can see the difference. As well as the difference in the original sprites when they go through their animations.

[coarse crystal]

Gave +1 Digi-rep to @tight meadow (current: #56 - 45)

[slim cliff]

This test sprite set made it easier for me personally to see which sprites go where when I'm modifying them

A little shaky but probably cuz I've been up late

It used to use the [07] frame for the training animation and [03] frame for anger/losing and attacking I believe.

[tight meadow]

nice idea. The sprite order got messed up because the environment changed since I first started working on it. I think this will be helpful.

[slim cliff]

I can upload the anim.bin and pngs I have for this if you want

Since it's already pre-made

Maybe it'll help others too, PNGs and premade anim.bin w/ name.txt. I usually replace slot 85 with this, since it shouldn't evolve and gives time to observe its animations.

If you updated the make_anim_bin.py tho this anim.bin may not be accurate

I actually didn't check if it had been changed

Oki should be fine

Tho you may want to flip [05] backwards if that is the one designated for the attack animation when testing, it can be hard to see during the Single battle since the digit gets cut off by the screen. I assume it is [05] in my set when updating.

I put the border around it to try to make it stand out more

It also helped with making sure the pixels were lined up right when designing the sprite, as each pixel has to be in the correct spot

[timber stirrup]

Change 4M to 16M, replacing model GD25Q128 or MX25L128, without needing to purchase a new development board.

[static quiver]

That's an option too.

[runic sentinel]

Tested, connecting wificom to the game world still has problems, unable to connect to digivice d3 us in wifi mode and serial mode

-In serial mode, it is now available for use with the app acom wiki and digimon sender

-The connection time is longer before wificom goes offline, but I would like to extend the time, but overall, it's okay.

• comp mode punching bag dm 20 code It's not working.

[frosty pond]

@runic sentinel has leveled up! (1 ➜ 2)

[tight meadow]

As for wificom, I'll have to install w0rld to test it. Also, for the DM20 Punchbag, you will need to use DM20 Battle Mode to support it; others won't work.

[frank hawk]

I haven't had any problems with vpets on w0rld, but you have to reconnect from time to time; it goes into a sort of standby mode or something, which isn't noticeable.

[magic quest]

I also haven't had any issues connecting to w0rld on wificom. I get the recurring message, "WIFICOM Offline, Please Connect to WiFi," but am still able to connect and battle as usual in the game. Is the issue you're referring to only with your US Digivice D3? I do, however have issues with playing w0rld through serial/DCOM/ACOM mode. It won't work at all for me. I always get the "SUMMON FAILED" error.

For my D20, I usually use Battle > Other and the punching bag code for the DMOG and it works fine.

[slim cliff]

DM20 punching bag worked for me, I haven’t played w0rld in a while but I could check it.

Yeah it does time out eventually

If you aren’t constantly getting into fights

I only connect my wifiCOM for fetch quests/grinding an area or if I’m just having my Digimon follow me around the map while I harvest materials

If you want to reconnect without closing the game, you can try to follow these steps before you start a new battle or upload a new Digimon. If your wifiCOM has been active for a while and times out:

Open w0rld Settings
Turn off WifiCOM in Settings
Go to your device, choose “Restart Wifi” or exit WifiCOM menu and go back
Turn WifiCOM back on in w0rld Settings
Upload your Digimon
try again if it fails to upload

If the game freezes you’ll just have to restart the game

It may also just disconnect you

Also it helps if you close the game manually by logging out, closing w0rld with Alt+F4 can cause you to have to keep closing and opening the application

Also if you aren’t using it for a while just disconnect it manually for now right away, will later save you the trouble of potentially disconnecting you from the game servers

It could also be a partial issue on w0rld’s end tbh

[runic sentinel]

Yes, yes. us digivice d3

[runic sentinel]

Mine is a DM20th revival, I don't know if it's connected to the wrong model or if the code works with this one.

[slim cliff]

In a couple months I will be able to produce these for anyone who may want one. If the speaker installation goes smoothly on my current model, it may have a speaker on the device. I got a quote on the shells from PCBWay, with shipping it’s about $9 per shell (like, all the buttons with it too). Solid white though, needs to be sanded and painted.

I saw the code for the speaker sound someone made, I think joushiikuta

[slim cliff]

Added note, sanding and painting won’t cost much so I’ll probably do solid black on all models, except the frame, buttons, and trenner (since it can’t be seen unless you open it)

May get a little creative with it tho. I am partially doing sanding and painting to hone a skill, and for fun

SLA Resin, btw

[slim cliff]

I’m surprised how long this thing lasts on a full charge. Or a lot of battery charge at least. So far 12 hours with a 1000mAh battery. Haven’t touched it much today, just wanted to see how long idle/low power lasts

[slim cliff]

I found this. 1 hour battery life ahh 😭

It does have the correct battery connector end tho

But that is abysmally low mAh for this

Anyway build time might be sooner. I got a decent amount of money from selling old Pokemon games idc for anymore, ordering parts in bulk is cheaper but objectively costs more upfront.
