Struggling to flash let's split

[nativejibroney22]

I have been trying to flash the pro micros for my let's split build but have encountered many problems. I finally decided to edit my rules.mk file to get rid of nkro and rgb to see if it was the file size that was throwing it. This time when run the make command it actually prompted me to reset my promicro but then I ended up getting my usual error anyway.
Here is the output I get after running the command.

What command have you used?
Pro Micro runs on the Caterina Bootloader. You need to short Reset and Ground pads twice to enter the flashing mode.

As for the command, try:

Code: [Select]

avrdude -c avr109

Try adding -v flags for a verbose output.

A little longer but still getting the same error.

avrdude done.  Thank you.I did notice this time that it isn't letting me run the code till the computer recognizes that the pro micro is plugged back in, which is 8 seconds later, so it may be missing the bootloader window.

Got the same thing, still doesnt recognize the pro micro till it exits bootloader

[TalkingTree]

I'm running out of ideas but one thing you could try is to reduce the baud rate. For example -b 57600

Yeh.. :/
So, I ran ls /dev/tty* and it looks like the pro micro won't appear on the usb while in bootloader mode. The computer won't register it till it exits bootloader mode. So I have no idea what to do.

[Harmvdw]

I had a problem that looked like that. The pro micro appeared on COM8 in bootloader mode and  switched to COM7 for normal. I used xloader to up load the hex file. I did not get it working trough avrdude. Maybe it helps.
