Help with .PFF files and Freestyler

[hockeybeast]

Hello!
I am relatively new to DMX lighting and Freestyler etc.. I have 3 chauvet colorstrips and googled for help with freestyler when this appeared. I saw that the user "Shannon D" uploaded the .pff file of preset macros, and since he/she claims they are for 3 colorstrips, just what I need, I decide to download the file.

The Problem:
I have the file downloaded, now I do not know how to use it.. I would like to enjoy the 90 macros Shannon D created, yet I do not know how. Do I have to import the macros into freestyler somehow?? When I double click it, it opens fixture creator, but the 90 macros are not in freestyler.

I understand this is very basic DMX & freestyler stuff, but bear with me as I am very new to this. If you can help me, please comment below. Thank you all and I am a happy new member for the community!

you need to move the pff file into the freestyler fixtures directory.
then add the fixture using freetylers Add/Remove fixtures menu

Ok, I did that, then inserted the 3 colorstrips, but when I click the macros button, here is what shows up.. This doesn't look like 90 macros that the user said he made for colorstrips, unless there is something I am missing..

hey may have used the new formulas, which will allow combinations of macros. these combos may add upto 90. they can also be displayed in colour and gobo pickers

iv opened the fixture and there is indeed 90 macros. unfortunately some of the "macros" are blank spaces used for positioning the buttons
