Hi,

first of all make sure you're in the correct Gamebuino folder. The output that you've posted shows you're in a folder called PocketBOY, have you renamed it?

Next, it looks like your build process is failing because you have the Borland make utility in your path. The Gamebuino folder has a batch file called build.bat with this as the first line:

Code:
set PATH=%PATH%;C:\arduino-1.0.5\hardware\tools\avr\utils\bin


First of all you'll need to change the path to the location of your arduino folder. Next, you should probably move it to the front so that it gets chosen before everything else, i.e.:

Code:
set PATH=C:\arduino-1.0.5\hardware\tools\avr\utils\bin;%PATH%


Let me know if you continue to have any problems.

I also can't compile the bootloader using the makefile. I posted it here but didn't get an answer. :(

I did like you said and changed the directories in the bat file and makefile but I still get the following error:

Code:
 makefile:51 *** missing separator. Stop.


the line 51 contains: .PHONY: all

not sure what separator it's looking for... :{

Thanks!

Somebody else on github had the same explanation, so i'll just link that thread as I provided a solution to not being able to compile the bootloader there: https://github.com/Rodot/Gamebuino/issues/18
