Hello Saberforum

Many people been asking and wondering about the Emerald Driver configurations to achieve the flickering/shimmering effect using the Emerald Driver. So here it is the video demonstrating on the flickering/shimmering effect. I like to say it look super amazing I know the video recording is not the best but if you had the saber in person is feels, looks way toooooooooo real!

Settings:

he Configuration:

Timing: 0s - 0.1s - 0s - 0.1

FoC: 0.1 Play 3 times.

Colors:

Primary LED2 225 (Green) , Secondary LED2 175 (Green)
FoC LED2 225 (Green) LED3 225 (Blue) = Very Light Blue

nicely done, and thanks for the info. will definitely have to try this when my emerald saber shows up.

Looks great, just like the sabers in the movies. I'll try to remember that when I have my Emerald Graflex one day xD

Dude that FoC is so intense.  I definitely gotta try something like that once I get an Emerald saber.  It's probably just the effect of the contrasting colors but it''s pretty awesome.

Does Flash on Clash work with emerald sabers without sound? I have a emerald prophecy, and they do not come with sound in the emeralds. and I don't know if flash on clash will work for it, but it isn't right now, just got it today tho, so I may not know what im doing wrong.

You can go as low as 0.02...  On all settings... For any emerald... Anything below .1  is only allowed in 2s.. 0.02-0.04-0.06-0.08   But you can get all the settings to go that low. There are MANY doors for effects opened with emerald drivers.

Yeah, and on the ramp-up and ramp-down for the pulse you can even set them to 0, so you can get a very quick strobe of .02 for one color and then the other. I find that this works especially well if the colors are more or less the same hue, but different in brightness.

Can anyone recommend good emerald settings if you want to achieve the same kind of shimmer effect with Article Blue as the primary?

[cshigeok]

ive just increased or decreased the colors 20 or so up or down for the opposing color to get nice shimmer color effect

Holy crap, I am trying this immediately!  That makes it look super realistic, like it would just burn your hand right off if you even dared to touch the blade.

No, Flash on Clash only works on sabers with sound, even when you have an Emerald saber. It's a feature built into the sound board, so it won't work without it....until there is an upgraded Driver available that merges the Emerald as well as the sound board features into one board Which is quite unlikely due to the complicated structures of both boards...

I run my configuration at .02 .04 .04 .02 with the colors being essentially the same, just one being ever slightly dimmer than the other. It gives it a really nice flicker - almost gives the blade a scary unstable look.

[Noctis]

It was mentioned in another topic that some users have noticed a fraction of a second "darkness" in the blade when it pulses between colors during a "slow" pulse setting.  Has anyone noticed this on either the quickened pulse or the slow pulse?  Just curious.

[Drahcir]

My setting is so fast that if there is a darkness portion I can't see it - even after close investigation.  It looks like a constant  subtle flicker.

[Noctis]

Same.  The only time I notice it is when I have a slow pulse, like a 2-3 second setting.  I honestly think that's normal, though.  I actually didn't even notice that until someone else pointed it out in another thread.
