R.I.C.E. - Heeelp..!!!
« on: March 28, 2015, 12:12:32 PM »
O.K. So, I am running a PC 3.5 Prizm in my new build. I plugged into my computer (Mac) using the rice port, downloaded the driver and everything is working fine.  I determined my main LED is set up in the RGB config. I have 6 fonts loaded on the SD card and I am ready to dial in some colors. I spent 3 hours getting all the colors just right on each font (10 per) and while the saber is still plugged in to the computer, everything is fine and all the colors are exactly as I had saved them.(I did click the save on SD card..!!!) 
Here is the problem.  I unplug the saber and none of the colors are what I have just spent 3 hours setting up - they have all changed...!!???  Only the last font still has the colors exactly the way I set them up?
Can anyone tell me why this could be occurring?
Thanks in advance saber fans!

You need to save, before changing to a different font.

Jango, aren't the color profiles also saved to the override, rather than the config for the font? That may be his problem as well.

I have been saving after each color update. And also before changing fonts.... The problem still exists.

Hawk, in the color profiles there are 10 colors total.  Not 10 per font.

I am guessing you keep erasing what you did trying to set up new colors on each font.

The override txt file is where the color profiles are and those are a total of 10. 

OR you can disable those and have one color per font. 

You cannot have 60 color profiles.

Are you trying to put 10 color profiles in EACH fonts config file???

Luminara,

Sorry, I am even more confused..?  ON the Plecter labs web site it says the following:
"PRIZM is a variant of the Petit Crouton 3.x on which the current regulator was removed and the power supply design was adapted for single cell. In addition, a real time color changing was developped which allows up to 10 profiles to be browsed within a font using the aux. switch and the activator switch."

It says up to 10 color profiles per font X 6 fonts.  The last of my 6 fonts has 10 color profiles and they all stayed the same as what I programmed in RICE.  Only the colors in the other fonts changed...!

Read that statement more carefully.  It does not say 10 profiles "per" font.  It says you can brows 10 profiles "within" a font.  The profiles are in the override.txt file and there are only 10 of them not 10 "per" font.  You brows all 10 profiles from each font.

EDIT   

Also read page 24 of the manual to further explain it.

I mean you do access 10 profiles per font but its the same 10 profiles if that makes any sense.

Man I have a hard enough time trying to make 10 different profiles much less 60 so I can imagine your frustration.

Ahhh, Thanks Chewie!  That got through to me..  IT was all in the wording.  You can see how I misinterpreted.

Luminara - Now I get it - Thank you!  Well, that makes it easier.  Now I will go and set my 10 colors & be done.  Much easier.!

One color on font 1. Two colors on fonts 2, 3, 4, & 5 and one color on font 6.  For a total of 10 -- Something like that...

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

The color profiles are set up in the override txt file.  You get 10.  Those same 10 will be available on EVERY font.

Your other option is to disable them and just set 1 color per font.
