Whole house model and LOR

[thevikester]

I had created a New Whole House Model which had my bushes in the model, and the bushes were LOR channels. So when I created a Whole House Effect, it would pick up the bushes, but being the bushes are only White, Red, or Green,  when I would do a color schematic such as blue and gold....it would still activate the bushes and turn them red, white or green, thus creating what would appear to be a very out of place color scheme.   
So I went into my models, removed the bushes as "Part of my display",  created a different New Whole house model without the bushes, and named it differently as well.  I then created the same effects in the NEWEST WH model, and then deleted the older new house model that originally had the bushes in it....I then saved the recreated sequence....but the bushes are still coming on with the old Red White or Green colors...
Is there a way to not have them come on, or in my process, did I skip a step?  Any ideas or workarounds?

Did you just update the old seq or did you create a new sequence?  Best to create a new one using the old xml file.  That way there are no leftover artifacts from the original sequence.  When I did this it wants the old model so I put that in and then added the new model and copied the whole column across.  Then I deleted the old model from the grid before I did a save for the new sequence.  I think you can do the same if you had deleted the old model because when you import the xml it will ask for the old model, but allow you to substitute a new model.   My writing is clear as mud here, but the best I've got.

Yeah, don't think I'm understanding what you are writing, because it sounds like what you did is what I did, which did not work...if I read it correcty.    I just updated the old sequence...I have 35 active models so recreating a new sequence, could prove challenging to recreate...so when I updated the old sequence, I created the new Whole House model....opened the original sequence, and added that new whole house model to it, copied the effects from the old WH model to the new model, and then deleted the old WH model, saved the sequence and...no bueno...still has the bushes from the old model.

Not sure if I understand when you say after deleting the old model, it will ask for the old model when importing the xml file.    I might try a conversion of the LMS. file, and then reopening the xseq file, and resaving the whole thing, and see if that removes the artifacts from the old WH model...if not, then a recreating of sequences as a whole may be necessary...which this happened on a few of them unfortunately as my understanding was it would only pick up the LOR channels if they were the same color as the WH model effect..

When you did an update to the old sequence all the old data is still in the sequence.  Say you moved an element from a start channel of 100 to 200.  The programming for the old start channel of 100 is still in the sequence.  That is why you must create a NEW sequence.  If everything in the sequence is coming from the xml that makes it easy.  Just use the new musical sequence option and specify that you have an xml file.  If some things came by import from another program you must start by importing again and then add the xml to that file.  But without starting a new sequence all the old sequence is still in the rendered file unless you have specifically got all the original channels exactly as they were.

I get it now Jim...I will make a change on that tonite when I get home...and give it a test run!  Thank you!
