Re: [FRC Blog] 2014 FMS Lite Now Available

FMS Lite seems to need at least Service Pack 1 on Windows 7.
It works on a Win7 Pro, Service Pack 1, 32-bit machine.
It does not work on a Win7 Home Premium, no service pack.

It does need a screen resolution greater than 1024x768 to fit all the sub screens into view.
E.g., Score tab and Status tab. The only one's I noticed as potential problems are the Score tab and Edit Match Result(can't leave).

I don't have any trouble entering new teams, so I think Harsh is right and you lack disk write privileges.

I also haven't been able to download the full team list, but the default web address does have the full last year's team list.
There won't be a Registered Team List for our events, because each of our homemade events won't exist in the FIRST database.

I've run everything through match play and it seems to work as I expect, although I haven't yet hooked up 6 real robots with it.

There will be tricks to someone who hasn't taken or viewed the scorekeeper training.
I'd suggest reviewing that before using FMS Lite.
