2012 Encrypted Manual Now Avaliable

[plnyyanks]

In the section titled 2012 FRC Game Manual - Encrypted, download the five parts to the manual individually. They're titled: Section 1 - Introduction, Section 2 - The Arena, Section 3 - The Game, Section 4 - The Robot, and Section 5 - The Tournament. If you open them locally (with your PDF viewer of choice), you'll be asked for an Open Document Password, which will be revealed during kickoff.

You should download the manual to your computer and not view it through your web browser because, during kickoff, FIRST's site will most likely be swamped and inaccessible, so you won't be able to access their copy of the manual then.

Side note: why isn't there one PDF with the entire manual released? I vaguely remember them doing this last year...

When can we download them?

[Joe G.]

You can download them right now. You just won't be able to read them until the code is released at the end of the kickoff broadcast.

Kind of lame that there isn't one file we can download, but eh, I'll live.

Perhaps this has to do with the new manual format, as mentioned in Bill's Blog back in November?
