Light Converse - Lightconverse - Hog Connectivity Application doesn't launch

Hello everyone!

I’m trying to connect Hog4PC direct to Lightconverse on the same machine without success.

I downloaded the Connectivity Application (www.flyingpig.com/support/hog3/downloads/VisualizerConnectivity.shtml.foo) and followed the guide (lightconverse.net/lc/download/lightconverse_hog3%20direct%20connection%20guide.pdf) carefully.

The guide says on the first page: „2. As LIGHTCONVERSE opens, a Wholehog DP dialog box will open at the bottom right of your computer screen and a Hog icon will be placed in the Windows task bar„. But this isn’t the case.

I tried different versions of the Visualizer Connectivity tool, uninstalled it and installed it again. I’m using Windows 8.1.

I think the main problem is, that the previous installed Lightconverse (Net-In Version with dongle, installed months before Hog4PC), doesn’t launch this Connectivity tool. It’s another version of Lightconverse, then the one shipped as accessory to the hog consoles, but it supports HOG-Net (fixtures are patched on HOG-Net).

Does anyone have an idea or any experience with this problem?

Thanks in advance!

Best,
Lydia

    Nlblights, I also saw your post over on the LightConverse forums, and sent you and email and got no reply. In any case I'll repost here what I said in case anyone else runs into this issue:
    At the risk of being too late, I stumbled across this post while searching through google for the same problem you're having. I really hope I'm not too late as it is actually a quick and easy fix.

    Seems with the latest LIGHTCONVERSE update it forgot that it was running through hog even when running the HES version of the executable.

    However to fix this, when you patch your fixtures click on DMX Input you'll notice there is a button that says 'Universe' press this and change the universe to a Hog universe. Once you've changed this and hit Apply the WholeHog III visualizer connectivity driver will launch automatically.

    Here is an image album showing you what to look for!
