As the title says, it boots up to stock FW easily, with no problems, but the way the V2 chip works if you didn't know, is the V2 chip actually plugs into where the NAND plugs into, and the NAND chip plugs into it. and it's still not lighting or giving any sign of life. I also plugged it into the PC and no LED lights up either. It detects the device, but still no sign of life.
The only solder points are SP1 and SP2, and I metered them out. Left side of SP1 is 0V to GND, right is 0.005V to GND, left side of SP2 is 0.005V to GND, right is 0V to GND. The power and everything comes through the board to the NAND chip, which is strange why the chip just refuses to do anything. Should I just buy a new chip or is there a fix for this? Any help is greatly appreciated! :D

I had the same symptoms until i realized that the chip came unprogrammed.
Use the USB-adaptor and drop fw_2.73.uf2 onto the removable storage from https://github.com/Ansem-SoD/Picofly/tree/main/Firmwares (remember to download it correctly, dont rightclick and download)
Then it should start glitch-training.

    I think Game streaming should work like this.... Local Hardware able the run the game fine, game engine and common assets stored locally, all FMV and music and textures could be streaming

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Some temporary storage
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    also @BigOnYa im making some progress on my gdevelop project, implemented various mechanics
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    They went all in on streaming, should have been more of a hybrid approach

    Or free government supplied high speed internet be nice also. Like Obama care. Xdqwerty that's cool, its time consuming but rewarding once done or playable, to see what you've made from scratch. Animations take forever, but worth it.

    @BigOnYa, although the bullets are a bit buggy

    Not to mention this would be a massive pain to pirate

    @BigOnYa,
    and the visual aspect of the game is quite crude (the sprite that looks best is that of the protagonist just because he is a stickman with sunglasses)

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    There is a bullets behaviour you assign to your character, that makes the code easier, under "behaviours"
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, ik

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    i meant that when the character is pointing to the right, the bullets spawn where they should, but when he is on the right, they move to the right but the spawn point is incorrect
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Itch.io has lots of free assets also. Under the bullets behavior tab, there is a "rotate bullets" option, can try that. Or in the code can try
    - fire bullet Player.X(PlayerDirection)

    YEa gotta after a while, looking at code for long periods will bug your eyes.

    That's cool tho, I'm proud of you going back to it, not giving up. It is difficult at first to learn, but fun once you get the hang of it. I think I've watched every tutorial video there is, but I still struggle sometimes to get stuff to work right. But gotta keep trying dif things, and eventually you will get it right.
