Trouble uploading Skynet3D to my Anet A8 via Arduino program I'm in distress here fellow people. I'm a noob to 3d printers and want to become an expert. Everybody has to start at the bottom right? Like the title says I'm trying to upload Skynet to my printer and for the board, I'm selecting V.1 even though my arduino board says V.1-5. And for port I'm selecting COM3, which is information I found in device manager, and the file I'm selecting to upload is SkynetV.1.?alfa.ino. After all of that is selected I click upload and I get the following error messages:

Sketch uses 114,230 bytes (87%) of program storage space. Maximum is 131,072 bytes.
Global variables use 4,470 bytes of dynamic memory.

Please help me.
Skynet3D was a very old fork from Marlin firmware, all functionality (more specifically for the odd LCD screens used by Anet) have been merged into Marlin firmware. Just get the latest version of Marlin. The current and final release of branch 1.1.x is 1.1.9 further development will be done in 2.0.x. Version 1.1.9 works perfectly fine for the Anet A8.



These error messages are displayed when you have either selected the wrong COM port or wrong Arduino board or have faulty or no drivers installed.
