Hello,

Daslight4 software can be quite resource consuming. With just a minute and a half to load this 300+ scenes show, I'd say that's an okay time for this software to load all the data contained in your show. It gets huge, the more scenes and the more (different) fixtures you create.

Sorry it's not loaded instantly.

Regards,
TomHat

Hi Richard,

As TomHat mentioned before if you have a big showfile then the software can be quite resource consuming. If the software is processing a heavy request then it could show "Daslight is not responding" and then it work okay again once processed.

I notice from your previous message that you are using an old version of the software. I would advise using the lates Beta found on our downloads page.
