Problems with the effectgenerator.

Post by Chiel »

Hello,

Last week i bought myself two movingheads. (Showtec Giant XL LED).
When I programm the pan/tilt-movements for these movingheads in Daslight4 the MH's get the following issues:

The Pan/Tilt-movements are shaking with the effect-generator.
When I programm the movements without the effect-generator or programm the movingheads with other DMX-software or physical controllers they don't vibrate...

Hope you could help me with this problem. Thanks in advance.

Hi Chiel,

I have the same problem in this version May 2017.
During programming the effect (for example line) the MH´s made a smooth movement.
When I created the steps (generate - also with different compressions) my MH´s have the same behavior than yours.
In edit mode I selected each step one by one and find out - the steps were created with different waypoints distance, so I got abrupt movements like yours.
In former versions it works much better (same MH´s) - I believe something went wrong with this version of effect generator.

Hi all,

I´m still working on it.
If I set the compression to off - the steps are created in a smooth movement - any other settings will jump with different fade and holdtimes.

Hope this workaround will help
