Beautiful effects super. I wish you good health and further success this year. I immediately put it together and the neighbors were amazed by its beauty. Thank you, Mike.
Thanks, I reread the title and saw it was a Nano. Surprised your able to get that sketch with that many LED's on there, you must write very efficient code? On my pro-mini I'm usually getting warnings with 150 pixels and just a handful of routines. I based all my coding off the FASTLEd demo reel. That's really cool your able to fit all that on the Nano!
Congratulations Mike for your work. Could you indicate the approximate measurements of the star? Thank you. I will try to make it for Christmas next year.
I just built a sign for my Christmas display and want to incorporate some of the effects I see here. So I have to figure out the order I want the sign to sweep across then create an array with that order? I notice you have flakeBranch1Array and flakeChervon1Array[]? Is that how your sweeping the sign left and right and also in circular patterns?
No, there are specific sequences which handles the top to bottom and left to right sweeps. As an irregular shape this took a long time to individually address each pixel at each stage of the animation. If your sign is rectangular the algorithm should be 50x easier!
@@MikeKatchmar I ended up using alot of your sequences for my sign. I did the array thing in order to "draw out" the letters. But I had a problem when the addresses went over 255. I changed the variable type for 2 byte but it slowed refresh time down to a crawl, so I gave up on that.
Thanks for sharing. Did you modify the mounting holes for the flake? I looked at them here: www.boscoyostudio.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=2_31&products_id=162 and it looks like it comes with a single row of LED holes where your demo clearly shows double rows.
Peter Chestna Boscoyo has so many products! This is the one I purchased. If santa cooperates I will add a second next year 😁 www.boscoyostudio.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=2_31&products_id=124
Peter Chestna if you want to use my code with no modifications it will be important that you install them in the same order that I did. Send me a msg and I email you the order of pixel installation.
Hey great work. Can I ask, did you use individual LED's for this order were you able to source a string type arrangement? If so do you have a link to an example product? Thx
Michael Eldridge Hi Michael, great name! In the extended description you can find the LED type. I have bought them through ebay or selected vendors on aliexpress. It depends how quickly you want to get them. If you have more questions message me directly or through this thread.
Danny Bolivar great question - check out this thread in the FastLED Google+ group, I posted a photo of the install order I used. If you don't do it the same your results will be different. plus.google.com/109651986377400054686/posts/VCVT8Bjdfxu
@@dannyfpv6156 almost every LED project I have linked to RUclips has code available, I don't update code after initial posting.

Excellent job! Very impressive! Thx for sharing
Really nice job!! Excellent work!
Jeff Hagel Thanks! I used an Arduino Nano to control this - small and cheap! But powerful enough for smaller LED counts.

Great Job, Congratulations
amazing, Superb animation!!!!
Nice effects.
Which Board have you used ?
Do share more such videos
I always use Nano boards, so cheap!

Hi,
Friend , brother ,sir very nice job .nice to see this .keep it up .... god bless u
Cool! Liked and subscribed. Waiting for the leds, could you share with the snowflake template?
I bought the "coro" as a finished template from Boscoyo Studio

You can send me the order pixel installation please. I love it this sequence

You have the order for array when you install the pixels on Snowflake?

Hi Mike, this is a ultimate version of this sequences?
Do you have a specific question?
@@MikeKatchmar What is the latest version of these sequences? Or is it the one in the pastebin link?

Hi
Where to start #1 pixels and last pixel 174
Thanks
This is a common question. It has been answers in other comments.
