Shameless approbation of same! This is a tool whose utility has no bounds. Try it. Scary good and simple in application. It is literally the first re-installed plugin on every VWX install I've done since discovering it.

here're a couple quick renders post-fix, with those old old posing figures which I still use alarmingly frequently for the ability to simulate interesting/thematic movement & to fake costumes (that not shown).

Hello again @markdd—thanks, that worked a treat. Have an excellent new year

copy thx - however I must be missing something. I copied the original point source, moved it down to where it belongs, leaving the original in place. The new beam position works well, yay. however, the body now separates from the yoke upon focus -see the screenshots. \

@markdd Much appreciated—It does appear that page requires a login.

I regret not getting the 64GB ram machine. It'd have paid for itself already. Lesson learned.

First—happy new year to this great community! I think I'm shouting into the wind here—this issue gets really old after awhile. Why does this matter to me? Well sometimes the show is intimate, the show has performers operating stage equipment, the audience is embedded in the performing area. This is VWX 2025 SP2.1 Your favorite workarounds, if you have one The next three are the same order & settings.

RAM upgrades @ Apple: Not so much with the affordable, so very very sadly.

TRADITION!!!!!

Also—what other rendering software has this specific beam-shaping ability, esp natively: Capture? That Wysi-thing? C4D? Blender?

💯

Just installed the updated plugin BeamViz 7. It does something I've been waiting for…Keep an eye on the cursor frame R. (nope, not the gate rotation) Screen Recording 2024-12-12 at 8.04.17 PM.mov Wow. For those of us who need gobos focussed in a variety of edges, building them one by one in PS was so irritating. Thanks Josh.

Sidebar-ing this a touch - is it possible to change the color output of an IES file, similar to putting color in the spotlight fixtures? thanks

It's such an irritation to deal with — so un-share-y.
