I been using the beta version and wondering if it’s necessary to update to the latest release before I finish my show. ThanksIt doesn’t matter whether you’re running the latest FULL r…

Hi StarryNight, some of the ground flares have heights of 0.5m, others are 1m, and a few have heights of 2m. The heights in the catalog may not be exact, but when the when the effects are seen in at a standard viewing distance (in real life), they will all appear the same height. The exact height on the day of the show will also be a function of…Read More

Hi Matt J and Tim Jameson, happy to jump in. It’s entirely possible to get an accurate count while using the Group feature. The right approach just depends on how you define “cue”:
If you’re thinking of a cue as an event row in the script window, you can simply go to blue gear in the script window and turn off ‘Show one row per group’. This…Read More

DrewFinale replied to the topic Import FireOne File
Hi Tom@BPM, if you mean a FireOne FIR script file, then yes, it’s absolutely possible. The primary limitation you may encounter is that FireOne scripts contain a limited amount of information. For example, the FireOne script format doesn’t contain a field for angles. Since there is no angle data for Finale 3D to import, you won’t see any angles…Read More

Sky Fire Forge, Neil is spot on. The October 2023 full release had a bug that was fixed in the immediate next beta release. I previously thought the bug only affected the intensity curves of very specific strobing effects, but it’s now apparent that can impact a wider range of effects. Thankfully, it’s already fixed. All you have to is update to…Read More

Thanks for confirming. I look forward to seeing the VDL’s. It’s a bit disappointing if those videos are the most accurate to the original video, for example the first row of taste the rainbow isn’t even in the right order.Nice catch on Taste The Rainbow, I’ll get that fixed up right away. Anything else?

Drew, thanks for getting back to me. You are right, I don’t see it on your video. I added them to a new show and I get the same results. As long as I know that it is just a “me” problem, I’ll keep it in my show. Could it be a GPU setting issue? BTW, I am running build 2023.10.02-5d6e6ec44. TimAlthough not impossi…

Hi Sky Fire Forge, thanks for the report. I did a quick test and I’m not able to reproduce the issue on my machine. Here’s a screen recording: https://www.loom.com/share/f1216395c4d44d0c821a145462b23c26
