Well, as the subject or w/e of the topic says, when I hit the '3d' button on the top of Freestyler x2, Easy View just crashes, no UI or anything shows up. Freestyler still runs. If it matters, I just installed it today.

It has been known to do this in the past, have you copied all the files correctly?

Did you read this? viewtopic.php?f=56&t=5579
Don't worry so much about the BETA, because I think it's all in one version now. But be sure to do all the files and zip folders.

Get stuck, then give me a shout. :)

Rebooting my machine seemed to fix it, but when I try to use Easy View with Freestyler, nothing happens in Easy View when I change something in Freestyler. The bottom right corner says 'Controlled by Freestyler | ECO MODE | DMX OFF'. I'm thinking the 'DMX OFF' has something to do with it, any way to fix that?

DMX off has something to do with the files in the above post. It's to do with the MEVP files (the protocol) between FS and Easy view, I believe the files fix something and patch it up.

Mmk, got that fixed and it's showing DMX on now. I can move the lights around but whenever I try to open the shutter (using Martin MAC 401s), the lights don't show in Easy View.

That's more than likely because you're not running BETA version. The normal version has a bug in it and the BETA fixes this issue. Try downloading the version from this website and see if it fixes it...
