Hi,
I just joined this forum to say
THANK YOU!
and
THIS WAS KILLING ME ALL DAY!
I mean literally killing me.
I died and went to heaven. And god was like "See? I do exist!" and I was like "wow that's awesome! I'm so happy to know that there is a god! you know, down there there's no single piece of solid evidence! I was totally skeptic, god! good job hiding!" and god was smiling and stuff. and then I said "I was so unhappy today, god! I really wanted to move to AtmelStudio because I outgrew the Arduino IDE, but for some reason I couldn't build a sketch properly! I kept getting an "Error compiling" message on the build output, and I was totally lost and there was no information about it online!
and god was like "Yes, My son. I know. I'm sorry. There was one piece of information that you did not see. It was only posted in one place online and you missed it. The latest stable release of Visual Micro wasn't made to run with Arduino 1.6.3, and since you decided to update all of the related tools, you ended up messing up for yourself.
"Gee wiz! Thanks god! I did not know that! Say, what kind of internet connection speed have you got up here?" and god said "My son, you are young. You have many lines of code to program. I am getting you back into your body. you have another 16 years to live before you die in a terrible car crash. Use every moment of your short time on earth to its fulle
I couldn't even hear the end of his sentence. I woke up in front of my computer, I installed the latest beta and now it works perfectly.
True story.
