Effects not showing on models
« on: July 29, 2015, 06:34:08 PM »
I created a new sequence and am having trouble when it comes to effects. Here is what I have done.
Started in Setup and created channels
Created my models
Created Sequence using MP3'S downloaded from Amazon
Imported timing marks from Music Library in programs/xlights/music that matches song
Added models

All this went well and than I effects by dropping them on the models. When I play the music I see nothing in the whole house model nor the preview model. What am I missing here?

Hit the Green Gear button under IMPORT. That is the Render button.   There is a known quirk with 4.1.13 related to this.  Once you render, hit play and all will be well.

Do not ask to know all the answers, but ask to understand the question.

Thanks Steve that worked. Now I can move onto the tedious effects part as though building 137 trees wasn't tedious enough.Thanks again for your help at Expo.
