FreeStyler fixtures

Post by BuckinJB »

What do you do when a fixture doesn't show up in the FreeStyler fixture list, but it is in the 3D Viewer?

Also, I added a Chauvet MinSpot in both FreeStyler and the 3D Viewer, but I cannot get any movement or projection from the MinSport in the 3D Viewer. I can see the parameter changes (Color, gobo, pan/tilt) in FreeStyler, but not in viewer.

I followed a tutorial on Youtube, but no getting the same results.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks.

I kind of got the MinSpot to project in the 3D Viewer. I read in the turtorial about the 'virtual interface'.

I cannot seem to operate the MinSpot as I can in another MDX software product. Meaning, I can manipulate that pan/tilt, but cannot set the shutter dimmer and it only stobe and I can change the GOBO's. I guess it is just a matter of playing with the software.

Thanks.

Well, back to the drawing board.

I removed the MinSpots and try to add a ADJ Par56. No matter what I do, I cannot get them to light up in the 3D view.

thats because nicolaudia did not release a Finished and goog working version.
to solve this download the lastest Beta from the nicolaudia page and install it.
Now Copy the 3dview.EXE file from the Beta verion to the version that comes with freestyler.
try again, and it should be solved.
