smeighan Posted May 21, 2012 Posted May 21, 2012 Thanks to the testing Henedce did on the nutcracker, i have found an omission and a bug.omission: for the gif effect, it was not prompting for the window degrees. All my effects should have this prompt. Fixed.bug: My 180 degree window was taking strand 1 +/- 90 degrees. I wanted the half tree to go from strand 1 to 1/2 of maxStrands. It is now fixed.You may be interested in how Henedce (down Australia way), built his megatree. I have been thinking of how to get the rigid spacing that will make the Nutcracker effects most effective. Henedce used pvc pipe, a drill jig, a base construction method that sets exact spacing. He is using 12 strings of 84 pixels folded so he has 24 strands of 42 pixels. He has built a half megatree.Here is a thread of how he built his treehttp://doityourselfchristmas.com/forums/showthread.php?20178-My-Pixel-Tree-The-Beginnings-(The-edited-version)/page4He has built his tree and has run through the library of effects of Nutcracker. He highlighted that text still doesn't work (i know, i know).It is cool to see so many of the Nutcracker effects actually work as advertised. He posted the gif , the efect settings and the vimeo movie for each.http://doityourselfchristmas.com/forums/showthread.php?20588-Nutcracker-Gif-to-Pixel-Tree/page1http://doityourselfchristmas.com/forums/showthread.php?20588-Nutcracker-Gif-to-Pixel-Tree/page2http://doityourselfchristmas.com/forums/showthread.php?20588-Nutcracker-Gif-to-Pixel-Tree/page3
