I have a spinner setup as a custom model in xlights as per the attached PDF file. I've include a picture and my rgb effects file. I have three of these built...two are 120 led strips (8 arms of 15 nodes per arm) and one is a 240strip spinner (16 arms).
I can't figure out an effect though to make my spinner spin. I'd like to have the arm 1-15 light up one color for a second then turn off and then the arm beside it nodes 91-105 all light up for a second and then continue around.
What is the best way to set up the spinner model? I don't really care what it looks like on the preview, but it would be nice to have it look like the proper effect. I think last year I used a horizontal matrix but don't think it worked too well either so I just did a bunch of random effects and said good enough for any girl I'd go out with...and i'd deal with it next year.
My options are to get a new wife or ask you folks how to make this spin!!
So....here I am. humbled by a 120 node spinner!
Thoughts on how to tackle this one? I know everyone is probably crazy busy this weekend with sequencing and setup for the holidays, so if there isn't a quick and easy way of doing this, no worries, but if there is something that someone did already let me know.
Cheers!
Ryan
