I’m afraid I don’t know for sure, but it would make sense. I never tested it without having everything hooked up.
Sorry, Max. I’ve never used the esp8266 and porting to a new architecture can be quite a task. I do see that someone has designed a similar project based on the ESP though… have you looked at their source code?
Thanks for the tip. Looks like they include one of the Game Frame animations right in their Amazon photos. High class company! 🙂
Compiling for the latest Photon 1.4.2 works for me, but you should really start by getting the library examples to compile. There are plenty of setup guides out there. You can do it.
I’ve never tried the WiFi code with WS2812b, but I would expect incompatibilities due to their timing requirements. It looks like FastLED has some native support for controlling WS2812 w/o using interrupts… see here:
https://github.com/FastLED/FastLED/wiki/Interrupt-problemsOr you could look at Paul’s library that does the same thing:
https://github.com/PaulStoffregen/WS2812SerialAnyway, I just tried compiling the V2 code for Teensy 3.2 using Arduino 1.8.9 and it worked fine (FastLED 3.3). What went wrong for you?
The code had very little room for libraries to expand their storage requirements, which they did. Try changing your chip type to Teensy 3.2 and see if it compiles. If so, just use that. It has much more flash/RAM.
I’m afraid they are long gone. It’s all been open sourced now.
Ok, it’s coming back to me now. Can you try the earliest available Wi-Fi Adapter firmware and see if it does the same thing? I recall it being related to updates in the FastLED libary that I use. I thought it was fixed in the most recent one… hm…
Shoot, I remember seeing this once before a year or two ago. Sadly I forget what the root of the problem was… so let’s start over. Do you see the same problem in all modes (Gallery, Clock, etc.) and do you see it when you swap your Teensy back on there? Are you by any chance using the super secret “apabright” mode set in wifi.ini?
