Showcase and Eos on one computer

[Peter Smith]

Is there a step-by-step guide to setting up Eos and VW Showcase on one computer? I have installed the loopback adaptor, which Eos is seeing, and I am sending sACN.

I brought the correct fixture into the Eos patch, and Augment3D shows the light (Encore Wash CLD, 24 channel mode)

Showcase has the same patch. and is set up to receive sACN. Two screenshots show the Augment3d screen and the VW Showcase screen.

Thanks in advance for any help

Make sure you are using update Vectorworks 2025 Update 2. It contains some fixes for sACN.
By the look of the screen shot it appears to be responding to Pan/Tilt because it's not in the home position?
Make sure the light is turned on when you view the light in Shaded mode.
Try changing your DMX provider to ArtNet, exit the dialog and change it back to sACN.
Make sure your fixture mode or GDTF mode is set the same as Eos.

I uninstalled and reinstalled the loopback driver, and everything is working now

Thanks
