Request: Video of your firmware

[Garywoo]

Hey, I'm looking for alternative Chromance firmware, and found yours. Could you perhaps make a video showing the features and animations yours has?

Hi!

I've actually discontinued the use of this project in favor WLED - it has way more features and animations than I would ever be able to develop and works great with chromance. It is also extensible in case you want anything custom. I suggest you take a look at it instead https://kno.wled.ge/

If you decide to use WLED, your animations will improve greatly if you use a custom mapping.

Good luck!

Thanks for the info! Did you wire up your Chromance as per Zack's guide? If so, could your share your WLED mapping?

Mine is mostly the same. I used WS2812b instead of neopixels and added null pixels close to the data output pins to boost the signal (it was bugging out before I did that). Here's my mapping.

You also have to set up the outputs and segments for it to work as intended. The outputs are in the same order as in the guide, but the pins are probably different.

The first segment should be the biggest hexagon, the second the star inside of it, the third the lines within the star and fourth the "ears".
