Hello, has anybody found a nice solution how to create note stand light for the orchestra I tried with the omnidirectional bulb and tried to fit it under the object note stand, but this looks awfull. The light in a real note stand is not so blinding, and it reflects by the notes to the face of the musician. Gratefull for all good ideas!

Hi there I have been asked to create a video walk-though of a show to send to a client. Please let me know the best way to do this in Capture. Cheers

Hi, I have a setup with relatively complex scenographic elements and almost 400 individual fixture. I use a super loaded computer with I9-13gen and RTX4090, 32 go fast ram, M2SSD, pretty standard high grade setup However I facing that if I turn on my 12 color strike M, I drop to 1-2 FPS. Is there anything to do on windows to get the maximum rate I would like to know how the 3D renderer work, is there plan to use nVidia tools like cuda, DLSS and ray tracing Thanks you

The Sliding Edges option is not mentioned in the manual. What does it do

I have applied a material to an imported mesh and it appears very dark. Is this because of the shape The only way to get it lighter is to give it a luminance. This does not seem the best solution ;-) Here is the material I applied: and here the result: I've used the following material properties:

I've been investigating a workflow in which I model my stage with fixtures in Vectorworks and then import it into Capture. It's working pretty well overall, as long as all the fixtures I use in VW are GDTF enabled. However one thing is not importing: textures. MVR is supposed to include textures in the file format, right The textures aren't coming through though. I can see in the Capture Import Window I am getting error messages, example: 'ERROR: Failed to load texture for material 'PAS010 RT' ...

could there be a way, to assist capture assigning the prefered fixture when importing selecting the correct, lens, mode, settings via a hash that can be put in user defined fields within vectorworks would be helpful to make the import seamless, as i now have to do much manual work. for a current project, i have to do planing inside vectoworks, but want to pre programm with capture. changes take a ton of time each time :( this could be also be used to assign diffrent devices between vec...

I am using an accessory for a fixture not in the fixture library as an internal or external accessory. I inserted a report item for that accessory (an egg crate for a LedBeam 150). How do I get this organized in reports under 'Accessories' rather then a separate header called 'Other'

Is it possible to manipulate heads of multihead fixutres like the Chauvet 4bar series The prerigged fixutres in the Library allow you to edit pan tilt of the par cans - is there a way to aim the lights in the 4bar like that My workaround has been to place a '4bar tri (Single par, 1 of 4)' over each of the 4bar's lights, address them in the DMX RGB range of the 4bar fixture, and then set the Intensity scale of the 4bar as low as it can go. And then I can aim'focus them as necessary - but I w...
