Magic 3D fixture for Common Ebay Chinese LED

I'm sure others have these lights, just curious what people are using for fixtures in Magic 3d. I have found a few that are close, but none are completely correct. Thanks.

If you have the manual you could make a fixture for it :)

I have the manual, not sure how to program the macros, but there there is already a fixture for the lights in Freestyler, so I would think there is a fixture already made or a substitute that works properly in magic 3d.

Not necessarily. Freestyler and 3D view are not made by the same developer, so it means that one might have something you need and the other doesn't. It's just that freestyler has the rights to use Magic 3D view.

I understand they are two separate entities. My thought is... I have found numerous requests for, and responses for Freestyler Fixtures for these lights... somewhere along the lines someone would have wanted to use them in Magic 3D, and possibly, there is a matching Magic 3D Fixture already created to match the Freestyler Fixture I have already found.

Not necessarily. But I see your point.

As Nathan Said, the macro part in most virtual fixtures would not be entered.
If you are using the par can as a normal fixture you can probably find an RGB fixture in there and mod the mode to use the basic functionality of your fixture.
If I have to program pixel matrix'ed shows or, anything that is at manufacturers discretion then I put one of the fixtures next to me so I can see what it is physically doing when I select that macro. Makes programming much more accurate. :)
