Moving/Intelligent Lights in Sequences

Post by nicko.dvz »

Hi,
I need some help. I can't seem to get moving light positions or -anything- into sequences. Any other standard light works fine in sequences and I can play them back, but it doesn't seem to record anything from the intelligent lights.
Can anyone help? Kinda urgent... Thanks!
Nicko.

Maybe its better for you to tell how you tried to create the sequence so we can find out where you go the wrong way.
Give us an exact list of steps where you click and what you do and what you are trying to achieve.

Saving movements of scanners and moving heads is working perfectly for me and many others.

But before you do, please upgrade to the latest release (if not done already) of FreeStyler, then try again and if the problem persists, post back here.

Okay, I have no idea what I was doing before but everything records into the steps fine now.

Although, how do I add a shape/path movement to one of the steps? It tells me "Shapes not available in offline mode", I can see 'Offline Mode' written at the top of the Sequence window, but no idea how to change it.

Thanks in advanced,
Nicko.

Probably your Cue window is open. The Cue (playback) window has priority over the Create Sequence (programming) window. Close both, and when you're writing lighting sequences, only have the Create Sequence window open.
