 Re: RobotC NxtCam Help getting started
Did you look at the video that is on the website? http://rdpartyrobotcdr.sourceforge.net/ ? When you've executed those steps, you can open your motor and sensors wizard and configure the NXTcam's port as "I2C Custom" or "I2C Custom Fastest", either is fine. - Xander

 Re: RobotC NxtCam Help getting started
What are you expecting to happen? Be more specific. I can't help you if you are being vague. Describe -exactly- the steps you did. You didn't answer my question about the video; did you watch it?

 Re: RobotC NxtCam Help getting started
I went to that website, I downloaded the 3rd Party RobotC Drivers, from that link, I saved the zip file, extracted the files and went to preferences on the RobotC program, clicked on the NXT directories tab, and put that file I just downloaded under the NXT System resource files directory. After this I went to the motors and sensors setup and when I looked to see what types were available under the sensors tab, I looked for the I2C Custom and it was not there

 Re: RobotC NxtCam Help getting started
I will ask again... Did you watch the video on the http://rdpartyrobotcdr.sourceforge.net/ website? Specifically from around 1:00 to 1:06 - Xander
