@dwdavedw Please post your file here ro submit to support so we can take a look a error you are seeing.

We haven't had any issues with that device.
Try using it with Skype or another application to make sure the device works.
VW does not interact with the device only Vision.
In VW follow these instructions to setup the capture source so Vision will recognize it when you open the file.

You should be able to simply run the "Reset Braceworks IDs" command and generate all new Load IDs.

@pazworkfornow@gmail.com Do you have a Dongle? MA requires the use of a Vision dongle in order to enable the MA connection driver.

You should not have to make any adjustments to using the Set #3D Orientation is you are just trying to place a striplight on a vertical boom. Here is a quick sample of what I think you are trying to accomplish.
-
I have not seen this problem before.
If you are still having the issue I suggest you contact technical support directly and they should be able to help you resolve the issue.
-
This is currently not possible but it is an item on our wish list.

@Henslin One of our engineers will reach out to you directly for some more details.
Your physical Road Hog 4 console should connect via Artnet or sACN without a problem.
We have only seen issues with Hognet driver.
-
As long as you have it working with GrandMA2 onPC using MAnet, Vision will connect right up to the real MA hardware using MAnet.

@Paulo Ferrari I believe that setting always forces the machine to use the discrete card all the time. gfxCardStatus alows you to force the system to use the integrated graphics all the time.
-

The only workaround that we have found is switch to using the integrated graphics card.
There is a utility that allow you to manually switch between integrated and discrete video cards.
Not ideal, but Vision will run on the integrated video card for the machines we have tested.

You appear to be a US user so you probably have the Series E version so you should be able to have it installed on 2 machines.
Make sure both machines are using the Braceworks serial number.
We make sure you can't install it on 3 machines and can't run 2 at the same time.
Please take a look at your end user license agreement supplied during the installation process.
Quote1.5 License Agreement (Series E)
If this copy of the software is issued with a serial number that begins with the letter "E" or any character other than "B" or "G":
The computers on which you install the software must be able to communicate with Vectorworks’ server to authorize each installation at first launch and periodically thereafter. If you have purchased a subscription license, your device needs to be connected to the internet while Vectorworks is running within three days of your renewal date for your renewed license to be activated (you are responsible for establishing and maintaining this communication link).
You may operate this software on one (but not more than one) computer at a time.
You may install the software on two computers: (1) a primary desktop workstation and (2) either a portable computer or a computer located at your home. The software may be moved to different computers from time to time, subject to any technical restrictions that may be incorporated into the software under Section 1.5(d).
Vectorworks has the right to incorporate technical restrictions into the software in order to ensure compliance with the terms of this agreement.

QLC+ does not require a dongle and uses Artnet.
Artnet and sACN are standards used by many consoles but not supported by MA without additional hardware.
-
@Jessica Privett You really can't remove them. LW and VW both track all the lights in the document.
You can use filtering in LW and Classes in VW to hide the lights you don't want to see.
-
@GloriamLT MA Lighting requires the use of a dongle when connecting to Vision so you can not use it with the demo version of Vision.
-
Which GLP X4? It looks like the GLP Impression X4 Bar but which one and which which fixture mode did you select?
-
Vision does not include a lighting console, you need to connect Vision via SACN, ARTNET, etc. to your physical lighting console of an offline version of a lighting console.
You will program on your lighting console and Vision will mimic the behavior of the lights.
If you want a simple software console you can tru QLC+ https://www.qlcplus.org/
It's not something I would use to program a show but it works for simple things.
-
How is the lighting console you have connected to Vision patched?
-
I tried those fixtures as a quick test.
Everything looks OK. The reason you are seeing the light go to the sky is that the moving lights move to their default location in Vision if there is no DMX signal present. (The light is receiving all 0's) Once you connect to a console with the fixtures patched the console should home the fixtures and the lights should point down.
Conventional fixtures will take their default focus from Vectorworks but moving lights will only react to dmx data.
-
I'll put in an enhancement request with out DWG team. I can't comment on when or if it will be implemented.

In Vectorworks, is the Device Type set to Moving Light? Vision handles Moving Lights and Lights differently so if the device type is not correct they will be flipped.
-
What cut can you not achieve? Barrel rotation allows you to overcome physical limitations of the fixture caused by the way it is manufactured. (Silly things like structural support and shutters in the same physical plane.) The virtual shutters in Vision and Vectorworks don't have those restrictions so you should be able to get the same cuts without the need for rotating the barrel.
-
@GloriamLT Are your lights focused in Vectorworks or Vision? You say they are focused up in Vision, how are they physically oriented when you look at them in Vision. Are you using stock Vectorworks symbols or custom symbols? Can you post the file?

According to the registration page there are 2 other sessions currently scheduled June 7th and June 27th.
Though I'm not sure if those will be discounted like the first one.
