Copiling Error To upload to MKS v1.4 board

Thruingen

Trying to compile newly downloaded firmware from online configuration tool for use with an MKS 1.4 board, getting the following compiler error in the newest arduino IDE (1.8.3)

Arduino: 1.8.3 (Windows 7), Board: "Arduino/Genuino Mega or Mega 2560, ATmega2560 (Mega 2560)"

Also having this problem trying to compile under the generic Mega ADK. any ideas?

Repetier

Please try dev version instead. Might be that the compiler has new compile settings preventing compilation, but dev is compiling fine with 1.8.x for me.
