Virtual sim
 

I remember that at the kickoff they said something about a virtual simulator where you could build your bot and test it out....I couldnt find a link to this so could anyone help?

I believe the link is at the bottom of this site:

I have signed up our team, but am still waiting for the email... I'm not entirely sure that this is it....

Were you asking about this simulator that Paul G introduced during the kick off broadcast?

Take a look here: Link to recent 5th Gear discussion
and here: 5th Gear discussion with links to other FRC simulation threads

yeah thats what I'm talking about, the one from the kickoff...Those links helped but still no download...

Re: Virtual sim
 

This post in the first of those linked threads is the one that tells you 2-3 weeks before the simulator will be available for downloading... http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...9&postcount=18

For now, keep your head down and continue designing/building your real machine.

After that is well underway, the simulator will become available, and you will be able to adjust some of the simulation parameters to line up with the gross characteristics of your real machine. You can then start playing a few matches against teammates - either just-for-fun, or for more serious analysis and practice.
