Thank You Xlights/Nutcracker team
« on: October 28, 2015, 08:59:08 PM »
I posted this over on the Falcon board where I spend most of my time but the truth is you guys deserve your own post.

Thank You -Developers, testers, and documenters.  While I have been fighting rain and moisture issues I am still successfully implementing the additions to my halloween show.  This just wouldn't be possible without both the Falcon and Xlights/Nutcracker teams.  My daughters think I'm a mad genius with the addition of the cannons my daughter dreamed up.  Here's a tiny video showing the test of the cannon tonight. 

So Thank you!

Here's a brief video of the test:  https://vimeo.com/143951057

Alan, do you tie your neighbors in for Halloween also?  Your efforts with Ubiquiti wireless at Christmas is a great lesson in neighbor relations. (Light 'em up!)

Not for Halloween yet. but that may change soon.  Considering a ship battle with a neighbor across the street but the idea is in it's infancy.

Ditto on the teams. Great job. Thank you so much.

As for the cannon. Very cool and way over the top.

+1 for Sean and the dev team.   Can't tell "all of ya'll" (a southernism...) how much we users appreciate the amount of time you spend on XL/NC for your fellow Christmas lighting enthusiasts!

The pirate ship with canon is amazing. I hope it's a strong button because the kids just will not be able to resist.

I've gotta admit this, your program is so easy to use and coming from lsp, I love the fact that I dont have to play minesweep while a transition is being done. There is a very small learning curve but thanks to all of you who put so much time into this program.

Alan, one of friends builds a 20' pirate ship on top of his pickup truck. He uses roof racks as support structure. His canons are pneumatic and blows out about half a cup of non-dairy creamer. In front of each canon us a tiki torch. Makes a big fireball. He buys bulk creamer at walmart. His street has hundreds of people.
