woodsy Posted February 25, 2022 Report Share Posted February 25, 2022 attached is a 3 second video of the attract mode for las vegas, on the right is the way it works the best and is ready to go on the left is the artistic approach which i've been struggling with for the last 3 days. i can't get it right and it does my nut in. because of the awkward shape and that they are connected it's confusing me and i've not got confidence in the way it looks either way so please can someone help with tech method to make the lamps nice for the name trail.. i've tried blacking the letters out and doing an overlay image to have the right hand side letters overlayed with the left hand shading etc. no joy i've tried overlapping and blending lamps i think. i'm stuck.

No1Stoney Posted February 25, 2022 Report Share Posted February 25, 2022 (edited) This is where blended lamps can help. As you light up the whole image in photoshop and then MFME will split the image up by way of blending the lamps. You can create a 'mask' in MFME which acts as the place where the lamp would be positioned on the image and then assign it with a lamp number. Have a look at my King kebab layout and look at the king kebab logo between the reels and the trail to see how to set them up (There are 8 lamps on 1 image).

vectra666 Posted February 25, 2022 Report Share Posted February 25, 2022 (edited) as no1 says deffo blend the lamps you can light up each individual letter that way, so each lamp would be as follows LAS 3 lamps lamp mask, left, middle, right vegas 5 lamps, far left, left, middle, right, far right strip 5 lamps same as above. i did this with the fellowship (fifth lamp not showing in image below) make sure each letter has a lamp on it Edited February 25, 2022 by vectra666 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
