Well I am ready to start programming for this year show, so I stopped in to see whats the haps.

 
looks like a few things have changed, to that I say "Job Well Done Michael! Clap"
 
I plan to still use this software, as it has yet to let me down. and I have tried many. Some have feature I like more BUT they let me down.
 
So what is the latest I need to have? I have a few new boards also have some of those lynx boards and (does that make it a run on sentence) some knew lazers with video. I have 2 weeks to put it all together and make a show out of it so I have plenty of time. Just want to make sure I am using the right software.
 
Good times and Happy Thanksgiving!

This goes for everyone:  If you are interested in running DMX AND you don't mind jumping through a few hoops to make it happen, send a PM to LightsOnLogan. While not an official release, which, among other things, has no official support and is considered as is (so back up your sequences first!), a beta DMX enabled version of Aurora is available. 

If you will not be using DMX this season, DO NOT ask for it.  Stick with v1.0.69.

So the short answer is 1.0.69?
 
Just joshin - is the DMX version Stable? I don't "Have to" Incorperate it this year. This time of the year is stressful enough, no way will I let my hobbie get me down Tongue
 
In fact last I checked I was still having problems getting my Lynx dongle to work so DMX is most likely not going to make the show this year.

Slink - Don't write it off too soon.  I didn't use a Lynx dongle last year and I don't think it will work yet.  If you have an extra D-Light dongle, you can do it, but you have to make a modified network cable.

The DL dongle will output data on pins 4&5.   When you crimp the end on the Lynx side, swap 4&5 with 1&2 respectively.  http://diylightanimation.com/wiki/index.php?title=Light-O-Rama_Controllers
