Papagayo - coro faces (feature request - change color)
« on: November 16, 2014, 07:02:15 PM »
I would like to be able to set the RGB color of the coro face tree I have so that at a minimum my tree outline can be green instead of white. I can always set it with another channel, but I think I also want my eyes to be green or blue and not just white. Any chance that this can happen either already and I'm missing the setting, or is this a feature request?

what kind of lights are u using to build coro face?

RGB
Dumb RGB
single channel

CoroFace was done for people who had single channel lights.

If you use Dumb RGB, just give the channel number of the BLUE light in the dump rgb. When we turn that on , you woudl see blue eyes.

We dont have an easy way if you are using smart rgb to build corofaces except to use your controller to treat them like dumb rgb.

dumb rgb - yup. I'll give that suggestion a try and use a single channel.

Before I had the model as 3channel RGB, however because it's a custom model I can't change the start channel. So I just created this new model (attached picture). I can now use on row 8 (channel 22 for red, channel 23 for green or channel 24 for blue). I would however like to have white mixed in there too. I think I can get creative with just the single channel option - outline green, mouth red and eyes blue, but with the approach I have, would there be any ability to mix colors at all? I might not just have thought of the best way to do it yet.

Has there been any updates in this area or will this have to wait until next year?
