New wave effect not appearing on preview
« on: May 01, 2014, 06:46:12 AM »
Well for the last few days I have been experimenting with the new wave that was introduced in the last release. In nutcracker tab, the amazing color patters with the 'wave' is really stunning. However after saving and then  previewing, the wave effect is completely invisible and does not show up on the preview.

Anybody else have this problem. All the other effects show up on preview but the new wave is black? --Greg--

Mine is black too. hmmmmmm

and the saved XSEQ file is full of "NULL" values

My original test was three event lines, all of them Wave effects.  I got nothing out in preview and the file was full of NULLs

Then I changed line two to simple Butterfly, saved, and it plays ONLY the second line.  Blank, Butterfly, then blank. The XSEQ file is likewise Null, then data, then Null to the end.

Thank you Jon for acknowledging that it wasn't something that I was doing. The effects were really cool but disappointed to not be able to see them is preview. I'm sure Sean will have this figured out quick and fixed in the next release.

Basically, I inserted the wave effect in an established file that worked and no wave effect in the preview. All other effects were visible.  --Greg--

Same problem here. On screen in Nutcracker and outputs to lights.  No image and no output to lights in Preview.

Same here... Everything seems to work w/wave except the preview... Hopefully, it's a simple fix :-)
