My demo saber is (finally) progressing, I'm now just missing some machining on the control box and I have to do a pair of short blade as those are easier show and swing on video obviously).
I'll be done today with the coding of the whole file saving system (config, prefs etc). Still modding a bit the SD package structure with 2 other easter eggs.
Bolt code should be back in the structure this afternoon, then more ledstrip work during the WE as I need accu bolt enabled to finalize the ledstrip renderer. It already works and produces a blade with everything minus the special effects that are post layered along with the bolt.

Like lego bricks... a lot of fun as long as you don't step on them with bare feet :-D

ran cloc (count line of code) tool and CFX (saber app + core structure) is about 60k line of code (comments / blanks not included). #yikes

also, I'm (finally) refactoring the code of Omnisabers 2 to prepare some demos, as I have room in my saber to install the new dongle.

[addon] bolt structure and main code is in place again and working, couple of gremlins to fight today, but mostly finished. Now to get that displayed by the blade renderer

I thought you take it easy in the summer! Sounds like a lot of work :) The results will be a lot of fun though for sure

If you’re here int he U.S., TCSS has already been shipping them. I know Europe has been shipping as well.



I find your arguments vague and unconvincing.

Quiet! *Slap* And there’s a fresh one if you mouth off again.

Any upcoming plans to add new Blade FX to CFX?
Got my Graflex in this week with a fresh CFX install, but finding the blade fx a little limited at the moment.

Question on blaster bolts, I have a huge delay from when the sound plays to when I see the effect on the blade. how do I tighten this up?
I read the accubolt and multibolt section of the manual, but I don't see where to change those settings.

that's indeed the accubolt / multibolts timeline, those are in the font config (since it's font based / font specific)

Worked perfectly, set it to zero and it was instant! Thank you!
