Can anyone recommend good emerald settings if you want to achieve the same kind of shimmer effect with Article Blue as the primary?
FWIW (better late than never I guess) - I've just configured the following settings, which IMHO looks pretty good as a 'Cold Blue' setting:
Idle Pulse:Total Time: 0.26s (You can speed this up/slow it down to suit)
Timing: 0.06s - 0.10s - 0.08s - 0.02s
Color1: R: 0% , G: 100% , B: 100% , W: 50%
Color2: R: 0% , G: 75% , B: 100% , W: 10%
Flash on Clash:Total Time: 0.06s, Play 3 times
Timing: 0.04s - 0.02s
Color1: R: 50% , G: 90% , B: 100% , W: 100%
Color2: R: 0% , G: 75% , B: 100% , W: 10%
I can post the lscfgx file somewhere if that is easier (and you tell me how!) - can also post a video of it if someone wants to walk me through the process.
Some thoughts - I've noticed that lightsaber cores usually look bright white in the movies with an outer 'glow' indicating the lightsaber color. In the absence of super-bright LEDs, my approach was to approximate this effect by using an off-white main color that flicks to the 'glow' color (trying to trick/confuse the eye into interpreting the glow color as being the blade color).
The more different the two colors and the shorter the duration, the more of a pronounced strobe-effect you get (not what I was after)...
I was also tuning the config within a Windows 7 VirtualBox guest VM under a Linux host, so some of the Launcher features weren't working (ie. I couldn't see the colors and timings in the color picker bars, had to disconnect to test etc).
