JoDrRe Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 Howdy! Per some advice I saw on the forums I added my three sequences into a show to compile them (and will create another show that references the files that get created), but when I get to my third sequence it errors out. Error: ERROR WITH SEQUENCE (Cannot open file C:\LOR\LORInternal\Playback\L\GrandIllum\03 - You’re A Mean One, Mr. Grinch.0002.65.play.lms) It builds the .lms and .lid files, but the .lcs is nowhere to be seen. I verified all users have full control to that folder, and it's building the other two files so it should be working fine. I was thinking it was preview-related because I removed a bunch of channels, but all the sequences use the same preview. Any thoughts or should I reach out to the support team? Thanks!

JoDrRe Posted November 18, 2019 Author Share Posted November 18, 2019 Update: Saved a copy and removed the apostrophe, comma, and period, and it compiled successfully. So if anybody else runs into the same issue, remove all punctuation before compiling! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoDrRe Posted November 30, 2020 Author Share Posted November 30, 2020 Boy am I glad I searched the forum before posting and also that I was a good Internet resident and posted the fix. Had the exact same issue this year with this song. The grounds team added a few more channels to bushes and stuff, bigger main tree so more strands on it... all meant a new preview. And one controller's underground wire got cut so I had to move the ELL to another controller on a different network and put it and one of the ELL'd controllers on that network. Reassigned the preview for all the songs, the other two compiled correctly, this one wouldn't. Used last year's file, but with all the changes there's a lot of darkness. Feel like a dummy, but glad the fix is simple! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k6ccc Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 Note: Hyphens and Underscores are OK, but you are right that some punctuation is a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
