Hi, I have been running pixels on our Christmas tree in the house for the last 3 years now. We normally get around a 10’ tree and I used up with 750-900 pixels on it. I installed the lights by starting at the bottom of the tree and slowly wrap around the tree until I get to the top. From there my sequences uses a random assortment of effects fading into each other. Since I don’t have a model for the tree with how the pixels are laid out some of the effects don’t look good and there is no way to do things like fading the tree up and down, spinning the tree, etc. I was thinking about trying to model all of the pixels on the tree but that sounds like it would take more time than I had. Are there any shortcuts you guys can think of on how I could map out the pixels I put on the tree to build a model that would not take me 20-40 hours to do? Thanks!
