Nice. As @merryoncherry said, putting the dimensions in on the props is easy now (as you have the ruler setup), do this on the properties window under Dimensions.
I see from your screenshot you have 2 sets of candy canes, that face different directions. Did you horizontally flip them in the...
Agreed, set the ruler up if you have not yet done so.
Then on the layout right click anywhere and click reset so it goes back to the default camera angle and post a screenshot. Just want to check the orientation of the 3d model.
After you import the effects, you will select all the dmx effects on the moving head group and individual level and then on the effects settings window you right click on the remap channels button and bulk edit , on that screen it has a button for using the mapping file.
It's that time again – time to start thinking about this year's Perth Mini! Before I finalise anything, I'd love to get your input on when works best.
Traditionally we've held the mini in early June, giving seasoned folks a bit of breathing room before the Blinky madness kicks off. But there's...
Yes , I believe it will be really popular this year.
I've been working on it for about 3 weeks now and hopefully can get it out by sunday .. if not, perhaps the next sunday :P - depends in the details and how i am feeling about the different parts. I know of 2 other sequencers doing this song...
As you have just started setting this up. I would very HIGHLY suggest you setup this star using the native star model in xlights and not the custom downloaded model you downloaded from the site.
I just checked the downloaded file and if you wanted to replicate this using a native star model in...
Welcome to the hobby :)
It will be worthwhile reaching out to those in Brisbane to have a chat and perhaps see a controller box etc and how it all connects.
Before buying anything - watch videos of some other people's shows to get a feel for what people have and make a list of things you like vs...
Good for adding heads to your layout, but the mapping from vendor layout with their dmx head, to your layout with different one still requires the remapping to be redone if using dmx effects at group or model level. Potentially in future if model was known it could automatically do that for you.
easiest way would be to open the vendors layout and cllick on the moving head and look at the string setup.
If the file you got from the vendor is an zxsq file you can double click it and it will open xlights with their layout, if it is a zip file you can either rename it to zxsq and double...
Just a quick update on the Mini:
We currently have @richardd and @Johnnyboy lined up for presentations, but we need more volunteers! Remember, you don't need to be an expert - sharing what you've learned is incredibly valuable to others.
Not comfortable with public speaking? Consider doing a...
