Please join me for the first monthly meeting of the CO Light Enthusiast. We plan to meet on the fourth Saturday of the month all year long. This month's meeting is on Feb 28th at the South Metro Fire Rescue Authority Headquarters located at 9195 East Mineral Avenue: Centennial, CO 80112 from 9-5. Just follow the signs to the lower level and follow the signs. Mostly a meet and greet for the first one, but open to suggestions.

I will try to make it. I can give a demo of xlights 4 if people are interested

if someone has given you a sequence.xml file, you also need the audio file they used.

if you have both
1) create a sequence using option 3) of the Open "New Musical Sequence"
select their music file
also click the 3rd option, "xLights XML".

You will eb prompted for their sequence.xml

Now you will have created a new music sequence using all teh effects and timing from the sequence.xml file you passsed in

One last task is renaming the otehr persons models to be using the models you have defined.

If that person had a model called BIG_MEAGTREE and your megatree is called MTREE, you rename their model to yours.

finally save it, you have now imported another persons sequence and made it your own. all nutcracker effects auto size to any model.

Nutcracker Models / Re: icicle model

« on: July 02, 2014, 02:40:06 PM »

Use a custom model, here is an example of different lengths

http://nutcracker123.com/nutcracker/images/custom_icicle_model.png

meteros, even text will work with this.

if you will have 20 icicles (varying length), with the longest being 10 nodes.
then build a grid for custom model by
model width? 20
model height? 10

start in upper left corner and number the nodes, consecutive

Nutcracker Models / Re: Candy Cane

« on: January 13, 2014, 06:23:58 PM »

can you show me how you built the first one? is it smart rgb or dumb rgb?

if it is smart and you had say 10 nodes in the candy cane you could build  a model as
30 arches of 10 nodes each. all effects would work.

all effects would work but the preview would draw an arch for each candy cane. we plan on adding more models for preview this year.
