i created a .evs file on a computer at work and when i took the file home on a usb drive, the file loaded blank, no lights, no staging, etc. any idea why this happened and how i can fix it?

it still opens fine on the original computer. tried saving again and emailing to myself. same thing happened.

thanks,
mike

Make sure you are not getting the fixture patch from Daslight and instead your fixtures are patched directly in the 3D. If you get your fixtures from the Daslight show then you need the same Daslight show open on the other computer.

If you are exchanging between computers the best way to do this is by clicking the main menu in the top left and selecting "Export". This will zip your evs file with all used objects, fixtures and textures
