dear reader, i wanted to ask if i can prevent materials from restarting upon scene change. i use a gradient for kinetics and some are restarting upon scene trigger which makes for not smooth transitions, the time is set on 20 seconds or more for the transition. some do not restart on scene trigger b...

Dear readers, I am generating gradients to control kinetics. I was wondering if there is a way to generate non linear gradients in the madmapper gradient shader or to maybe alter the shader to generate them. I am looking for sinewaves instead of linear animations, the gradients generated by the grad...

never mind, needed a reboot

Hey there,

thanks so much for always getting back to me.
I think the control dissappeared again in the new update, even when i turn on advanced controls. is this true?

Looking forward to hearing from you!

Hey Matt,

I can't find this functionality anymore in the updates and internal loopback is lacking framerate again. Do you have any ideas how to solve this?

Best,
Boris

Thanks so much.
One more question:
how do i get the pixel L to response truly to the black and white information? as in, 50% white = 50% dmx value?

thanks for the swift reply's!

Boris

Hey Matt,

thanks for this!
Where can I change this setting?
Can't seem to find it anywhere.

Thanks again

Please note that in the loopbacked video the framerate drop is not visible at all, it is equally smooth as the original gradient - you only see the drop in the DMX monitor and in the motion of the winches. Looking forward to hear from you!

Dear reader, I am using madmapper to control the movement of winches. I set up a lot of black and white gradients to create the motion using black and white and 16 bit pixels. If I use the lights directly on the gradient the 16bit motion works flawlessly, however, I want to use the internal loopback...
