Hi. That guys whose code you stole here. Nice that you mentioned me. My name, however, is not Micheal Naepers. Still a great video though. Now, time to correct some things.
5:20 you're missing 2 commands. The W command to actually write, and the mysterious V command. I have yet to figure that one out and I don't think it's mentioned online so I'll give you a pass for that.
5:57 that's actually a deactivate command. The byte after the 0x41 needs to be 0x01 for activation
6:14 Actually, S commands are continually send after sending the activate command. Not the S command. The S command can be used to force a status response when, for example, the portal is deactivated or has not yet been activated
6:29 the second to last byte serves like a timer. The last byte is wether or not the Ready command has been called since last getting power. You are right about being able to ignore them, kinda.
6:37 since you made shit work, I'm guessing you either just used my code or are explaining this in a simplified way
6:54 you should be ashamed of yourself for using 1-based indexing
6:59 the maximum amount of figures a portal can keep track of is 8. The protocol itself allows for up to 16
11:40 it's kind of surreal, seeing someone else use my code and show it off in a video
11:50 my code was meant to run in real time. Just as a standalone application. Not limited by petty things like framerate
Overall it's a great video

This is a challenge. Time to rewrite some code and prove my worth...

At first I was very angry because you just tortured my childhood. But you did it for a good cause.

“Because I’m already half way there! *REWINDS*
half way there! *REWINDS*

Keep up the great work! This was incredibly well researched.
There needs to be more Skylanders videos as informative as this.

[@Sophia_P999]

My childhood dreams have come true!

[@WinnerNombre]

Great video, looking forward to the follow up!

[@off-the-grounder568]

19:36 I’m gonna use that as an excuse to tell you the character’s name is Wash Buckler, not Swash Buckler. I guess it’s a pun since he shoots bubbles to attack?

[@Tylerdakoh]

It's so beautiful! THATS MY FRIEND RIGHT THERE!!

Finally. Peak has been created.

I found a box with a portal and a bunch of Skylanders at the flea market. I'm gonna try making it light up using an arduino or atmega. I don't care for the data, but rather just using them for D&D.

[@thedevatlas]

Ooooooo nice

[@lij2007gaming]

Great video

[@zeroman0460]

I think you used the Traptanium Portal Wrong. The Sensors are all on the sides. (The White circle that creates lighting) putting the skylander STRAIGHT into the middle of it gives a poor connection. They wanted to make a cool looking transparent portal.

[@demorunnertimmedrt4432]

Doesn't Skylanders 1 have a rare Wii u port?

[@thedevatlas]

Yes, in Japanese!

[@izanfaguas9094]

Hello, I have a question, how did you ask the skylaners reader? Is there any possibility that you could pass it on to me? Also, my computer does not detect the portal. If someone can help me, I am trying to use it in Unity.
thx

[@thedevatlas]

I am making an update to it in the next few weeks, it fixes hopefully all of the issues and should make it work in unity better. :)
