Importing a single model from LOR AC to xlights
« on: February 07, 2018, 01:46:06 PM »
Thanks to all of the help I've received from this forum, I have successfully transferred all of my SuperStar sequences to xlights. Now that I'm using xlights I am ridding myself of most of my AC lights. Everything has been replaced by pixels.  8)

The one AC item I would like to use however is the 6 channel LED star for my CCR tree. Is there an easy way to pull just the star from my LOR sequences and import it into xlights with out importing the entire sequence? I've watched all of the videos but they refer to the entire sequence.

Cheers

All of the import mapping videos show how to choose which models will receive data from which item.  There is nothing saying you have to map everything just map what you want.

I watched those videos that discussed that, but they were using a clean setup. I've spent alot of time so far setting everything up, including the circles you helped me with, and I'm worried about screwing up my current setup which already has all of my models set and mapped. I guess I'll go watch the videos again and try to figure it out.

Cheers

Well we don't usually start with a half cooked sequence just to prove it can be done in the demo.  I'm telling you that it's no problem to import a single model into an existing sequence so just hit F10 to back your stuff up and go try it.

You really need to start a new thread not reply to a 3 year old one.  In any case there are 100 reasons a computer could be acting up.  With almost no other info all I can suggest is make sure to shut off the porn server.
