I've set up the repository so everything is ignored properly, placed in the right directories, etc.  I've also placed instructions on setting up the code.  Find it all here.

Try to download the repository and compile the code.  Take careful not of anything that seems wrong or hard to set up as you do so, and report them in the Darwinbots3 forum.  I'm going to be doing my best to make easing into coding on Darwinbots3 as easy as possible for whoever wants to do it.

Sweet. I'll take a look at it a.s.a.p.

I can start working on in about seven weeks time when I get out of my coursework.

I've had academic/project experience with testing procedures and software management. But yeah, I like evaluation before integration, just makes life easier.

The C++ code is sort of dead, so it's either going to be Visual Basic or C#, depending on if you want to work on the current code or the future code (Darwinbots 3).  Eric's maintaining the Visual Basic code, so he could probably help get you started there if you want.

With C# and Darwinbots 3, I'd really like to get someone other than me working on the GUI and graphics.  It's an important step so I can start working on the physics, but it's a lot of work.  I'll probably type up a post in the Darwinbots3 subforum explaining the different modules that need to exist.

Or if you're really ambitious you could help me work on the physics engine.  The physics and mathematics involved is pretty intense, though, compared with most other things.

I'd rather help you out with the DB-3 work. I can also help you out with the physics if you wish, I'm almost finished my EE degree, so I'm pretty comfortable using vectors and transformations and all that jazz.

As for the GUI and graphics, I'm starting to dive into the Tao bindings and XNA. So I can eventually help with that.

Hi. Long time reader, first time poster

I can help out with programming if you like. I know my asm/c/c++ and can read VB. I'm brushing up on my C sharp now

I can also do algorithm analysis in the meantime if you wish, while I get familiar with C#/.NET/XNA

Thanks.
