It's not a problem, as moderator I delete any double posts I notice - as you say, it's VERY easy to accidently double post.
 
are you thinking of an momory game that has 4 butons and thy keep lighting in a seqence and you have to repeat it.

In that case it wod be more simple to use 4 difrent color LEDs stuck on 4 buttons.

Or are you thinging of a maching game that you have cards and you have to find pairs.

In ether cases you need a way to randomize it.This can be done by drving noise on an I/O pin and trying to reed it evry cuple of time this way you get a seris of random 1s and 0s.
 
Yes, A memory game: Writing up a sequence of digits (cause my keypad has only digits) and then askin' the user 2 input'em... I just want the functionality of the LCD screen, along with the keypad, not that I'm obliged to use'em...
 
Oh a nice simple project.

the PIC simply generates an numbr displays it and waits for the user to input it and it displays more an more numbers

LOL I wouldn't like to play such game :shock:
 
yea i wod rathe make an pong game becose its way more fun.

Or i havent seen a lights out game whith an PIC
 
That's very refreshing :shock: ! Hehe, I want now the LCD to work!
But I have the 16F84A... Not the 16F628, which Nigel based his tutorials on... I took out the comparator line, from the code, and changed the porta/trisa to portb/trisb (cause it's 8-bits) and it didn't work :cry: :!: :!: :!:
 
You cod try to use an high level compiler becose you have built in libarys that do it all for you and its much fater to make an program in a high level compiler.

You cod try mikroBasic becose its realy simple

Why did you change the PortB/TrisB, they are the same for 16F84 and 628.
Also, make sure that you have oscilator connected to the PIC, because 84 doesn't have internal oscilator.
 
Jay, I have an oscillator and everything for the PIC to work: I have previously used it for other programs, so it should be working fine... Now for the PortA/B, I dunno nothing abt the 628, but It looks like it has an 8-Bit PortA, or my 84 just has 5-bits for porta...
 
And the 84 has 8-Bits for PortB... That's y I made the change... Still, the LCD is justflashing up blocks of 'liquid crystal', and no characters or anything whatsoever... :?

OK, that's true. I though you also changed PortB, which is the same for both PICs. You did well with PortA though.

Do you see both lines with dark blocks?
