            Just wanted to share a little clip of our last rehearsal:
            Its our cleaning robot tracked by lasers
            Video comes from eMotion, Motion Brush Shake
            I get their Tuio messages into my system via Osculator. Then I route it into Isadora and send it to eMotion. Then via Syphon back to Isadora.
            Great applause to @particlep for his great tutorials. Wouldnt have managed to do it without them.
            Works also great with humans, not only cleaning robots ;-)

                    @particlep
                    I'm from the Philippines. I use Isadora for interactive projections for dance ballet shows.I discovered eMotion in this forum and followed tutorials of particlep. Tuio, OSC, Wii functions work! Great Thanks to particlep for sharing the tutorials. My only problem now is how to properly syphon eMotion. As suggested by m_theater, I've changed the resolution and activated the Frambuffer. Render window can now syphon but it displays a quad image instead. Please see attached images below. On the other hand, I tried working with the old version of eMotion in an Imac and syphon works perfectly. Here are the two scenarios: Scenario 1. eMotion: Latest 0.7.1 installed in a MacBook Pro Retina with OSX 10.9.2. Syphon Status: to activate syphon, I have to click "use FBO" but syphon displays a quad image. Additional Info: When I tried using a demo version of Syphoner by SIGMAMIX, Syphoner reads the eMotion render window without FBO being activated. But I wouldn't want to go this route. Scenario 2. eMotion: 0.6.9. installed in an iMac with OS X 10.6.8. Syphon Status: working, no need to enable anything in eMotion. Syphon to and from Madmapper, Modul8, and Isadora working perfectly. ---- I hope someone can help me figure out how to make syphon work with eMotion 0.7.1 66169f-syphon-debug-checked.tiff 20ac34-fbo-unchecked.tiff

                      @lazandre you're welcome. i figured by sharing we could collectively learn more.

                      well done for keeping version 0.6.9 working.
                      right now i have no answers for you. sorry that sucks i know, however my approach has always been i don;t know how emotion is meant to work so i'll find out what i can do with it.
                      i have always suspected that there are parts of emotion that are not fully implemented in the publicly released versions but still appear within it.  i can share with you that many times i've shut emotion down and walked way from it because it just wasn't being very useful.  
                      sometime later i see something that answers the problem i had when i walked away ,,, and i go back and try again.
                      i'm not sure what else i can add right now. sorry.

                        Very interesting comments here. I've been aware of eMotion for months but could not get a reliable download link. Yesterday it downloaded completely but I have not opened it yet. All these comments are giving me the correct frame of mind I need to approach eMotion. Thanks.

                          thanks particlep and vanderzee. particlep, your tutorials are really a great starting point for me to understand emotion. i was at a lost till i saw the tutorials.

                          i'd also like to share some of my observations:

                          1. Activate and deactivate "Map Wacom to current layer” item if you are not using wacom.  (At first anything I draw with pen or particle tool do not show up in the render window or the drawings are pulled by gravity on the left border of the render window. But when I deactivated the Map Wacom to current layer item, everything went well.

                          2. Particles have a limit. You can only draw up to 99,999 particles. Inspector menu displays no. of pixels/objects of the current layer.

                          3. Syphon can be activated by clicking “use FBO”. But for version 0.7.1, you’ll get a quad display.
                          You can drag png, jpeg, movie files into the layers thru the “Scene” items in “Tools” to have a textured or movie background.  You can then scale, move, rotate the background in the Layer Geometry in Scene Options or click on the scene and use your trackpad. Scaling the picture/movie background will give you an option to alter the collisions, either with the scene or with the layer you just altered. (Because syphon is not functioning properly, the image or movie in the layer is also in a quad format.)

                          4.  The text tool does not work in 0.7.1.  I notice that in any layer i create using the Text tool it has an underlying black mask background that is similar to the quad display i mentioned in my previous comment.

                          Will post some more since there's a limit in the number of characters i can type in this comment window.

                          Still hoping someone can figure out how to make the syphon work properly in 0.7.1 :)

                            Thanks so much particlep and lazandre!

                            I've got newest build of eMotion up and running with TUIOpad thanks to your help and tutorials. 
                            I am going to be composing music and producing a show for our local professional ballet company next year and hoping to integrate eMotion, motion capture, Isadora and Ableton Live.
                            I've got some fun investigation and experimentation ahead of me!

                              Hmmmm.

                              My eMotion 0.7.1 suddenly throws a 'this version out of date' at startup and shuts down. Is this happening to anybody else?
                              I got excited for a second thinking maybe there was an update but I am not seeing one anywhere.

                                i too have the date thing.  i've seen this before.  i tried downloading again and got the same out of date thing.

                                [smartalec](/troikatronixforum/profile/7415/smartalec)  i've emailed the contact address re the out of date thing and put a link to this thread and the tutorial playlist i made last year and requested any information.
                                i think in the short term we simply have to wait and see what they come back with or keep an eye on the website http://www.am-cb.net/emotion
                                for any updates.
                                sorry i can't offer any more at this time.
