    Default Import .ild in pangolin from ild sos

    Hello !
    I used Pangoline intro and ILDsos, and have problem with import .ILD in Pangoline.
    I do so:
    1) in ILDA SOS load .dxf or .pic and save it in ilda( vary type 0,1,5)
    2) in Showeditor in frame list load .ild file. Here i see my animations but ALL LINE IS ONLY BLANKING. IT IS MY PROBLEM. Why? what should I do?
    3)but I did not give up, and made ​​the following:
    Load LD2000 and in frame list this .ild file.
    I made "CONVERT IN VECTOR ORIENT." And MIRACLE! IN LD2000 all ok!
    In Showtime frame change, but it not correctly, appeared SHIFT BLANKING AND IT IS MY PROBLEM.

    All the above steps, i saved in the file, and show in a ILDA player doing well.
    Help me, what should I do?

    Let's see if I get this right. You created an ILDA file from DXF using ILD SOS, and when you tried loading the ilda file into:

    1) The German 'ILDA Player' app by Gentoo, it loaded fine.
    2) LD2000 as vector oriented, and it loaded fine.
    3) Direct to showtime, it loaded incorrectly, all unblanked.
    4) Then you tried copying the LD2000 buffer to showtime buffer (to bypass the problematic? ILDA loading in showtime) and it was shifted all strangely. Is that right?

    If it's loading the the German ILDA Player correctly, and LD2000 (as vector) correctly, then I'd guess it's not a problem with the IDLA file. I looked at your ILDA file and it loaded fine for me here. You can try to work around the point shift issue in your buffer-copy workaround by applying an opposing point shift in ILD SOS, but that's not ideal. Someone who has dealt with ShowTime ILDA file loading compatibility can maybe give you better suggestions. Are you using the latest version? It sounds like it is ignoring the blanking bit flag in the file. Maybe there is a fix. Or maybe it worked better in a previous version, I don't know, that would be a question for Pangolin support.


    About your file, it still has a lot of points. You can reduce complexity in the roulette spindle and reduce the number of ball slots in it (or make them 1 dimensional) to save point count and bring up the frame rate.

    even iShow can load the ilda files made with ILD SOS correctly. Have you tried Pangolin support?

    I had the same problem, did you try to use the Shift function thats under Color Enhance?
    Change all these 3 to the value: 2

    That always works for me.
    Oh and just a thing. that top thingy looks way to complex to scan. *too much detail*
