Issue with butterfly

[bigstott]

I have butterfly running on a single strand of 2811 strips and the first two IC's are stuck in red..... IT will only do this in butterfly. Any other effect runs normally. Any ideas?

Choose a different pallette color for butterfly.  Does it change?

Are you using the latest version of Nutcracker?

I just created a string and applied butterfly and see that too.    (V3.3.9)

Changing the pallet has the same effect but with whatever the top most color selected will result as being the constant pixel that never changes color.

I just noticed that when I switched back to my 24x50 tree the lower left 2 pixels don't change colors either.

Not a big deal to me though. The sequences should be changing every 2-8 seconds and we should have so many millions of lights in our displays that nobody will notice

Have you reported the problem to Sean?

i am looking into the equation that creates the butterfly.
if you have a matrix 30x40
then i do a loop x=  0 to 29
    y = 0 to 39

i am looking into the equation that creates the butterfly.
if you have a matrix 30x40
then i do a loop x=  0 to 29
    y = 0 to 39
       f(x,y) = butterfly()

values of zero and one (bottom left corner of a matrix, are always returning a zero. The return value is the hue. A hue of Zero is RED.

in other words, i need to find why 0,0 or 0,1 and 1,0 always have the equation return 0.

i am looking in to it. I wrote the equation two years ago and have not delved deeper.

this is where i found the original equation,  http://mathworld.wolfram.com/ButterflyFunction.html

Next release of Nutcracker will have the butterfly effect fixed.

[Aaron Maue]

Excellent. I had noticed that too, but it didn't bother me much, so I didn't point it out. And now, it's getting fixed anyway! You rock, Sean!

The new Butterfly looks great Sean!! 

The new effects look like they're Glediator inspired.   I hope they keep coming!
