Problems?

If your raspberry still isn't connect, may be in one of these cases:
  • Remember than SSID name and wifi password are case sensitive.
  • If you use strange caracters in SSID name or wifi password then use wire connection and access to share network resource.
    Search the file system/recalbox.conf and edit wifi values.
  • Use channels allowed in France or recalbox doesn't see your wifi network (example: in Spain channel 12 is allowed but not in France, this selection won't work).
    The solution is change wifi channel in your router.

All my Tente 3D models in github

All my Tente 3D models I had in my old web are now in a project in github called tentemodels.




How can I download them?

For newbies:
You can download all the files pressing on Clone/download and then Download ZIP
If you want to add your own models you can attach them in issues section. I put them in the folder "others" (remember that you can add your name as autor in the file with MLCad).

For advanced users:
You can see changes in all the project or in each file, investigate in github, get the lastest version download only the changes using git commands, etc...
You can use these commands as normal user:


CommandResult
git clone https://github.com/cpcbegin/tentemodels desired_folderDownload all the project, that is, all the models in the desired folder.
git pullUpdate to get latest changes
git logSee change history


If you open an account in github until you can create a clone and propose yourselves more models. We will see in a next article how to do this.
