[FTC]: FTC Toolkit for 2013-2014

Is there a source for the toolkit for 2013 - 2014 yet? I am trying to go through older tutorials to get myself up to speed this summer and there are some great ones out there, but I typically need to have the toolkit installed. So my problem is this, I have installed the latest labview for lego that is 2012 and the toolkit is looking for labview for lego 2010. Any suggestions? I can't install the toolkit because it is looking for the older version. I've had a post up on the NI site for two weeks but no response....

Shoot me an email and I can walk you through it/ get more information from you.

The tutorials you are trying to do...are those the ones like: basic autonomous, basic tele-op etc?

Let me know,

Paul

Re: [FTC]: FTC Toolkit for 2013-2014

Ok, thanks for the help in advance! For others that may see this thread, here's the information that I sent over to Paul:

First thanks for the help on getting the FTC toolkit going. Some background that may be helpful. We have an FTC team and FRC team at our career center, but we are starting FTC teams at our local middle schools, so that is the reason why I need to learn, so I can teach my FRC students to be mentors at the middle schools. So, I purchased the Tetrix with labview classroom bundle, plus another teacher at my school has a single set of the tetrix. With the classroom bundle came labview for lego mindstorms 2012. The only Toolkit I could find online is from this link on NI:

http://digital.ni.com/express.nsf/bycode/ftcsoftware

So I downloaded it and tried to install the toolkit from here (see screenshot below) (sorry about the large size)




But it shows that it is a service pack for labview 2010, well I have labview for 2012 since I just purchased it. And this is the error that comes up when I try to install it: (once again sorry for the large size - see attached image)


If I say ok, and try to install the toolkit only, it says I need the 2010 NXT module installed. Any suggestions would be appreciated and I will try to give NI a call on Monday, but between my Master's Class and getting my daughter to camp for the week, I probably won't have time till Tuesday.

Oh, and the video's I'm referring to are these: http://www.youtube.com/user/EnableTC?feature=watch

and I'm not trying to do anything fancy, just want to acquaint myself to the programming and how things work and just want to run the rangerbot in teleop.

See the link for the detail, but looks like the toolkit isn't available just yet.
