Gameathon


NEW POSTER COMING SOON

Gameathon 2024 October Edition

Always wanted to build your own game or alter an existing one to your own taste? This is the time to do it!

Our goal is to make something playable (and fun!) in just one weekend.

Maybe you would like to make a game for our arcade machine or surface table?

Or design your own pixel art video game?

Or put our 3D printers to good use and create your very own tabletop game?

This weekend is about building your game your way!


Is it for me?

No matter your skill-set or interests, there is something for everyone: scenario-writing, music, dialogue, drawing, programming, design, crafts, and more.

Using pre-made assets is no problem, just make sure that you have the necessary rights to use them, and attribute them in your game’s description properly.

Whether you create something on your own, as a duo or in a group is up to you.

Participating is free!


Location

You can find us at Carbon6, room L406

Kloosterweg 1

6412 CN

Should you not have keys to enter the building yourself, give us a call (+31-45-71-12345) and we will come to pick you up and guide you to ACKspace.


Registration

Please register for this event by sending us an email on info@ackspace.nl.

Bring your laptop, tablet or any other material you would like to use (drawing tablets, music instruments, crafts, etc.).

Lunch will be provided by ACKspace. Drinks and snacks are available for a fee. Dinner (pizza) is at your own expense.

Notities

De vellen (met papiertape) en rollen met de prijsindicatie per 10cm2 zijn extra hechtende folies, theoretisch geschikt voor de vaatwasser (na ~48u uitharden). Doneren aan ACKspace mag altijd ;)

Ontwerp

  • zorg voor grotere breedtes binnen je ontwerp (minimaal 2mm?) of combineer met grotere oppervlaktes zodat alles goed hecht; inverteren van het design is vaak ook een optie.
  • zorg voor een kadertje om het ontwerp:
    • draw rectangle;
    • Menu "Path" -> "Object to path" (Let erop dat "Stroke to path" 2 snijlijnen maakt)
  • eventueel extra snijlijnen door te verwijderen stukken tekenen voor makkelijker de overtollige folie in delen te kunnen verwijderen.
  • let erop dat de paths gesloten moeten zijn (dit is niet zichtbaar met fill, enkel met stroke)
  • TIP: snap to grid zit rechtsboven onder de menubalk
  • Inkscape op de plotter PC heeft standaard een raster dat overeen komt met de snijmat


Plotten

  • De grote rollen folie (33cm) zijn te breed voor de plotter
  • Controleer dat het mesje op 3 of 4 clicks staat;
    • instellen kan door de borgclip naar je toe te trekken en dan het mesje er uit te tillen: er is een "stempel" om het mesje heen dat klikt.
    • Voorzichtig met een nagel of stomp object drukken per klik; doordrukken = reset.
  • De plotter snijdt maar tot 11 3/4" breedte (laatste hokje van de mat haalt het mesje niet).
  • Aanzetten: klein knopje rechterkant 3s vasthouden
  • Plaats snijmat;
    • recht tegen de wielen aan
    • zorg dat de folie aan de linkerpijl komt
    • paper feed aantippen (rechtertoets ^)
    • mini feed v tot aan het gootje verderop in de plotter
  • Extensions, Export, Send to Silhouette
  • Gebruik speed 2 (i.p.v. standaard 3) voor kleine objecten en/of nauwkeuriger snijden
  • Let op het mesje als plotten fout is gegaan; deze wil wel eens verder klikken
  • TIP: plotter faalt of verkeerd begonnen? powerknop vasthouden, print dialog 1x op kruisje klikken en wachten tot deze errort.


transfer

  • eerst met een scherpe (gebogen) pincet de overtollige stukjes weghalen
    • Let op dat ondiepe snijlijnen alle folie wil meenemen
  • transferfolie goed aanwrijven
  • zo recht mogelijk geduldig loshalen (transferfolie niet "krullen")
  • goed op (vetvrij) product wrijven en dan met scherpe hoek (goed "krullen") geduldig verwijderen
  • TIP: sommige folies zijn te glad voor de transferfolie; eventueel celofaantape gebruiken (let er op dat deze extreem goed hecht aan de folie wat transferren kan bemoeilijken

synopsis

Vanaf heden (28-03-2023) is er elke:

  • laatste zaterdag tussen 00:00 en 23:59 (de hele dag dus) een hacksessie evenement.

Het is dan de bedoeling om deze paar uurtjes exclusief te gebruiken om aan je project of willekeurige hack te werken, al dan niet als groepje. Gezien de huidige situatie is een virtuele space ingericht on als nog samen te werken zonder fysieke aanwezigheid te hoeven hebben. Je hoeft niet per se mee te doen, maar dit is natuurlijk hét moment om verder te komen met projecten.

  • Heb je een idee, maar weet je niet hoe je het kunt uitwerken? Vraag het dan op de mailinglijst, IRC of Telegram groep.
  • Kom je een onderdeel te kort? Mail het bestuur.
  • Ben je op zoek naar inspiratie? Kijk eens op patches welcome of bij de geparkeerde projecten en voeg jezelf gewoon toe aan je nieuwe favoriete project
  • Is iets, maar dan ook iets niet duidelijk? Gewoon vragen!

data

De volgende dagen zijn gekozen voor 2024:

  • Zaterdag 27 januari
  • Zaterdag 24 februari
  • Zaterdag 23 maart - 1 week eerder i.v.m. open dag op 30 maart

SYN-ACKnowledge.png


Thanks everyone for attending!

This year was a continuation of last year's self-hosted sessions. xopr had to scramble a video adapter, one of the video inputs (cable?) didn't work, and the midi control desk didn't play nice with the 30 minute old installation, but in the end it worked out fine. Best of all: all talks started fairly on time this time!

For the stats, see Congress_everywhere#2023

synopsis

"Let's get together and share information informally and semi-structured."



This is an evolution on the usual annual "Congress everywhere" where waffles/donuts (oliebollen), chocolate milk, Christmas tree+wreaths, Pixelflut and different streams are central.

Don't be shy to ask for information/presentation tips via all possible channels; there are few participants that present for a living so everything seems difficult at first.

Dit is een evolutie op de gebruikelijke jaarlijkse "Congress everywhere" waar wafels/oliebollen, chocomel, kerstboom+kransjes, Pixelflut en verschillende streams centraal staan.

Wees niet verlegen om informatie/presentatietips te vragen via alle mogelijke kanalen; er zijn weinig deelnemers die voor de kost presenteren dus alle begin lijkt moeilijk.

This project ties strongly with the MQTT setup (to connect to the SpaceAPI) as it uses Tasmota[1] on ESP devices for feature bang and ease of use.

Note that you're more than welcome to add any sensor (or actuator) that you might see fit for our hackerspace. Think: 3D printer nozzle temperature or filament weight, outside radiation, air quality, motion sensing, window opener and the likes; this project is proof anyone that can handle a screwdriver and PC can do this.

synopsis

Create a modular repository of sensors and outputs to keep an eye on temperatures (and/or other stuff), especially for monitoring the server room, and optionally, the [sl|h|st]ackspace(s), including the space state switch.

intro

After some iterations of the Space state switch and some versions of the Spacestate indicator, some different types of temperature sensors, it was time to make it easy on ourselves: switch to MQTT and use Tasmota[1].

In most cases, an off-the-shelf ESP device will suffice, but since not all devices are not galvanically isolated from mains, it's more practical to use an ESP-12 PCB for things where contacts are bare (like the Space state switch).

Here are the steps to setup such a device

configuring a spacestate sensor from scratch

Most of this (apart from the MQTT configuration) only applies to the Spacestate sensor board (see image); it will setup a pinout template that matches the board.

  • Under Configuration, click Configure Other
  • Paste this template: {"NAME":"ACKsensor","GPIO":[0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,1,1],"FLAG":0,"BASE":18} and check Activate
  • Fill in Device Name (ACKtemp or ACKstate) and Friendly Name 1 (Space state switch or leave as is)
  • Save (will reboot)
  • Click Configure Module
  • Make sure Module type is ACKsensor (0)
  • Set functions for GPIO17 (ADC), GPIO16 (Typically Switch 1 or Button 1) and GPIO12 (DS18x20 which is connected to 3.3v using ~4k7 pull up) [2]
  • Save (will reboot again)
  • Click Configure MQTT
  • Set Host (192.168.1.42), User (temperature or spacestate), Password (currently, only xopr knows these passwords), Topic (temperature, switch or spacestate) and Full Topic (ackspace/hackspace/%topic%/%prefix%/)
  • Save (will reboot yet again)

notes and troubleshooting

GPIO16

Note that this pin is special (it lives on a separate register internally, but more important, its internal pull resistor is to ground (pull-down) [3][4][5]

ADC/GPIO17

Note that the analog in is 0-1V maximum; use a voltage divider to limit its input.[6] and [7]

space state

To read a switch without having a corresponding relay one has to remember the default switch action is TOGGLE, which can be used in traveler-system (hotelschakeling) style: one can turn the light on with switch 1, turn it off with switch 2 (software) and turn it on with switch 1 again while the switch physically is in a different state. To change the behavior of the switch, use switchmode[8]: 

switchmode 1
restart 1

Note that if you need the reverse (switch connects to poweroff), you need switchmode 1. Also note that restart 1 is needed to store the configuration.

multiple switches on the spacestate sensor

By default, one can use a single switch/button without a relay set. If you want to provide MQTT state for multiple switches without having corresponding relay outputs, you need some rule magic;[9] 

Rule1 ON switch1#state DO publish ackspace/hackspace/%topic%/stat/RESULT {"POWER1":"%value%"} ENDON
Rule2 ON switch2#state DO publish ackspace/hackspace/%topic%/stat/RESULT {"POWER2":"%value%"} ENDON
Backlog Rule1 1; Rule2 1

other devices (switches)

Note that the space has a modified sonoff POW (old revision) that allows switching with a regular toggle switch while able to monitor the power usage. It uses the following template: {"NAME":"Dangerous POW","GPIO":[32,160,0,0,0,2592,0,0,224,2656,2688,288,0,0],"FLAG":0,"BASE":6} Note that while the GPIO is 5V relative to GND, it most likely is 225V above earth potential: insulate well and never connect it to your PC.

calibrating POW module

To calibrate a POW module (like in the hackcorner), you need the following[10]:

  • Multimeter (for measuring mains voltage)
  • Resistive load (higher=better, like the 500W SMD rework station)

Steps:

  • monitor mains voltage
  • go to the sonoff console tab of the device
  • turn on the hot air station and crank up the dial
  • input the following (adjust the voltage and current accordingly)
for current, you use the formula: P/U*1000 = 500/227*1000 = in this case
VoltageSet 227
PowerSet 500
CurrentSet 2202.64
restart 1

recovery

When a device doesn't respond or won't connect to wifi, you might need to trigger recovery mode[11] by:

  • power it off for 30 seconds
  • power on 7 times with less than 10 second interval

Note that this only works if SetOption65 is 0 (which one would have disabled if brown-outs occur often.
