titan mobile does not see edited personality

Postby renebiemans » 23 Nov 2012, 11:33

I've got a titan mobile and I edited some personality files to my own satisfaction and inserted these edited personlity files in the my documents/titan/personality folder. I've did this in titan 6.0 and this worked well but in 6.1 it does not work anymore.

Is there maybe something what I did wrong or is this an error?

Well, the new mechanics with user-specific personalities doesn't correctly work at the moment. Please save your file to c:\program files\Avolites\Titan\FixtureLibrary.

You might use the PersonalityBuilder's function 'Save to Fixture Library'.

I agree with icke_siegen but there is also and issue with edited fixtures.
Yes you have to save them to c:\program files\Avolites\Titan\FixtureLibrary to work but when the program asks if you want to use the updated fixture in the current show, if you say yes the fixture then becomes unresponsive. After a lot of selecting the fixture, locate, adjust dimmer repeated many times, they work sort of. Only a restart of the program fixes it correctly.
This is very frustrating and need sorting :cry:

Hey SLS, thanks for the clarification - yes, you're right about this 'use updated personality' thing, however, I often call 'update fixtures' by purpose.

Can you please clarify the issue you're having? In particular, if you could submit the personality you're updating, and maybe the showfile along, it would be of great help to investigate this further.

I've never seen this. Is this a repeatable problem?

If you send it to Nick and to me you won't do any harm. Nick will forard it to the software gurus (what I'd do, too) - but I am always curious :D

Actually I don't have access to my email at the moment so I can't look at it.
