Any updates on the horizon?

Post by beathousepro »

Been awhile since any new development has been released?
Are there any patches for bug fixes or updates coming in the near future? I've now purchased 2x dvc4 gzm interfaces, plan on getting 2 more next month, but would really like to see some updates rolling out soon to know that I'm investing in a product that is still actively being developed. Daslight 4.1?
Is any development still being worked on to address some of the feature requests of Daslight 4?

Hello,

We are planning on releasing a new version on Daslight 4 in the coming weeks.
Is there a special bug fix you're hoping to find in this new version ? Any trouble experienced since last Beta ?

Best regards,
TomHat

Last night I had 3 crashes while programming and 1 crash during live mode/show.

Some Glitches/Issues besides the crashes...
  • Unable to move fixtures around in some cases. Having to use 'resize' instead of 'move' (2 arrow diagonal vs 4 arrow NEWS).
  • Matrix sometimes doesn't produce the animated graphic (ie Rainbow animation that is scaled over lights).
    I zoom way out looking for it, but sometimes it just doesn't show up.
Do you get crash reports sent back to you when the software crashes? If not, would be super helpful if you did, that way you'd a least get a count of the crashes and hopefully some debug information.

Hello!

I would like to know if the problem of updating fixtures has been fixed (update the libraries and keep the values. Currently the values become "0" when the project is not new)

There is a post about it:

Thank you!!

Hello DMXer_1,

Have you tried creating a new show with the same patch (with updated fixture profiles) and importing your original scenes into this file ? (using the import feature from Daslight4 menu)

Yes, this works. But, that would take a long time: select all the scenes to import, and map the entire keyboard and midi controller (buttons, speed faders ...)! :(

It would be great that as in DV3, if you substitute a fixture in the patch, it would keep all levels dmx

Thanks for you quick response

Hello,

Thanks for your feedback. We'll try to make sure this is included in next version of Dalsight (Daslight5?).

Best regards,

Since you always put the Name Daslight 5 in sight...
Would you mind to create a forum section for users to post and discuss feature requests?

Hi TomHat,

when can we expect a new version of DasLigh4 (we have Nov 2019 now)?

It wold be very helpful to get every quarter a new software version for the future with detailed changelog.
