Hi, to make two WS2812B strips interact with Doflinx, do I need to use a teesy with OctoWS2811 or is there another way?

I don't know if it's possible to use WLED.

 

Thanks

Yes you need a Teensy / Wesmos controller setup via DOF.

 

I also support addressable LEDs via Pixelcade Pulse.

I'm trying to use Wesmos.

I uploaded the firmware and created the cabinet.xml file with Arnoz Tiny Tools.

I then generated the dof configuration with DOF Config Tool 3.0.

I put everything in the config folder, opened GlobalConfigEditor, and integrated the folder and the cabinet.xml file.

I created a combo, but nothing happens in game.

Do I need to do something in the doflinx configuration file?
Is there a way to test the individual steps?

The ultimate goal is to use the LEDs in Pinball FX.

If your addressable LEDs are working through DOF, then simply having this in your DOFLinx.ini will get all the setup information needed. https://doflinx.gith...ldrvpathffffini

 

When you run DOFLinx with DEBUG=1  you can right-click and select a test option for ROM codes.  ROM = doflinx and code E25 should give you a shape on the back effects.
