This procedure also brings your r0ket back into shape in case you “bricked” it or experience other strange software glitches including a damaged file system for l0dables.
| Revision | Change |
|---|---|
| 1 | Initial |
| 2 | Improved Mesh |
| 3 | Improved r_player l0dable |
| 4 | Improved fahrplan, mesh, fonts |
| 5 | Fixed mesh |
| 6 | Actually pushed the mesh changes, improved game l0dable |
| 15 | numerous small bugfixes |

If completed the steps above once, you can update your dataflash by copying the files from the 'files' directory in the archive to the mounted dataflash of your r0ket. Do not forget to properly 'eject' or 'unmount' the device or you might loose data!
