How To Add Blade Styles & Fonts To A Proffie Lightsaber THE EASY WAY | Proffie OS Online Editor

[@highlightshadow]

One thing to bear in mind with picking colours... remember you're dealing with LED light power... so while say a "pure white" blade for a Ashoka Tano / Dark Saber might look nice at 255/255/255 -- it means it's running the LED's at full power all the time and that when you do clash/lockup/blast etc they cannot go brighter than they already are.... So for example, my Ashoka Tano colour i run 180,180,210 - which is very slight blue tint but overall fairly white but gives the LED's about 20-30% of their brightness for clash. A strong red colour for example is only running something like 128,0,0 which means it runs the LED at 1/2 power and gives plenty of additional brightness available for effects. Just a little tip to bear in mind .... as i noticed for your green you used 0,255,0 which means you're running the green LED at full tilt. Again, it's possible but drains batteries quicker and gives no spare brightness for effects on that colour.

[@AbsoluteSabers]

Yeah mate your bang on with that, something to keep in mind for sure, if youre using white as a clash or lockup colour then no issues unless your main blade colour is white like you said. Also just had to configure this for code fulcrum sound font from kyberphonic and wen the same route as you in giving the white blade a blue hue to it. Looks Dope too!

[@highlightshadow]

@@AbsoluteSabers Is code fulcrum a CW based ashoka or something -- can't quite make out what the voice says on the font announce. For Ashoka i use "The Sourcerer" from Kyber as it's a mandalorian one and very very sweet..... having said that are any of KSith/Kyberphonic fonts NOT amazing :D

[@AbsoluteSabers]

@@highlightshadow i'm sure is a Rebels based Ahsoka font bro it's my preferred one personally but this is what's great about our community is everyone has different taste! IKR Kyberphonic & KSith are the GOAT!!!

[@Tome1492]

This is great advice. Thank you

[@chrispetro4463]

Just tried your suggestion and turned down the solid-colored blade styles to 128 from 255...you're right, clashes look better and no noticeable difference with the blade color. Like that this also saves power and extends the battery life - thanks for the suggestion!!!

Thanks I’ve been looking for somebody who can explain it in a way I understand, this helps so much, I can finally add to my saber, also I’m pretty sure we both use dark wolf

@@christophergiachetti1133 the mace sound font from ksith is great, just play around with the purple/pink on the blade to get it right for you. Also, kyberphonic does a couple real good Ahsoka fonts too, code fulcrum is my fave but he also has commander tano which is still kickass!

So far you're the only video i found explaining the difference between xenopixel and neopixel

[@AbsoluteSabers]

Thanks man, I do try to be as up to date and current as I can be. A lot of confusion between the names of boards and blade tech etc but the Xenopixel is the name of the soundboard which actually only comes with the option of a neopixel blade and not in hilt rgb unlike the proffie board that can come in both in hilt or neopixel configurations, saying that, the neopixel option is the only way to go if you have a proffie board in my opinion! Glad I could help with this! Thanks for watching!

[@bradorem121]

@@AbsoluteSabers yea me leia im waiting on is my first neopixel after seeing almost every vid there is on leias dw saber and neopixel sabers nothing but good stuff.Only saw one bad vid and it was where the guy got it from which was why he was having issues with his neopixel.Had a buddy ask me whats the difference was between xenopixel and proffie told him its the soundboard configuration and the priffie can do something the xenopixel cant(grasping at straws) as far as that i have no clue lol.

[@AbsoluteSabers]

Yeah so you can configure custom blade styles with the proffie board for any sound fonts you add. The Xenopixel can still add sound fonts, see my other video, but can’t update blade styles or customise any blade styles. That’s the only real difference! But when OS6 is available for proffie then that will change the game. It will bring the customisation features into the board itself so you can play around with pretty much every aspect of how the saber behaves without having to rewrite the config file over and over, or so I’m lead to believe! Hope you enjoy your Leia, it’s a great saber, nice display piece also!

[@chrispetro4463]

I've watched yours and a few other videos on the "long" way of adding/programming new fonts and blade styles, and while it looks like that way gives you so much more control on how the blade looks, it is WAY too involved and confusing for me, and I'm just not into wiping the config and replacing it every time I want to add another blade style, so I am VERY thankful for this method that you posted! That said, I've run across an issue that I'm not sure if i am doing something wrong, or is just one of the bugs with doing this the "Easy" way....I've noticed that the color changes you select don't always translate to the blade. For example, I am installing a Qui Gon blade style, and using the "standard" set-up, the blade lights up green if I use Red = 0, Blue = 0, and green = 255. However, I want to lighten the blade up a little and when I use the color wheel above and set it to a lighter green, the blade lights up white, no matter how little or much I change the level of green in the program. In addition, the clash is set at white, but is clearly pink on the blade. I have the same issue when I use the "Advanced" and "Unstable" settings. Have you experienced this too? If so, were you able to get around this, or does this appear to be an issue with the program? Thanks much for your videos and help!!!!

[@AbsoluteSabers]

Best thing to do is to use a rgb colour picker on google and play around with some values on the rgb as some of the features are still in development from what I know as they are going to use this online program for the new OS6 for proffie

[@chrispetro4463]

Thank you SO MUCH for posting this video! I just added several fonts with your help! A few questions though...When I go to edit the blade style and choose "Advanced," it completely screws up the "Lockup"...instead of putting the color of the lock-up in a small section of the blade, it changes the whole blade, whether it be the default white color or whatever else I choose. Everything else looks great, except for that, so I have to choose either use the Advance edit and mess up the lockup, or use the other 2 options but not be able to get the timing and clash colors I want, etc. Am I doing something wrong when I'm using the Advance edit that is messing up the Lockup, or is that a flaw in the Easy Prorffie OS program? Again, thank you - the Arduino method of making changes is so intimidating that there is no way I would have been able to do this - so much appreciation!!!

[@chrispetro4463]

Just tried making changes with the "Advanced" editor on a copy of a blade style where the Lock-Up produces a localized color change, and the same thing happened...the entire blade now changes to the color on the lock-up, instead of just a localized color change, so it appears that this Advanced Editor is the source of the issue. I tried all the different available settings and nothing worked, so it appears you have to accept the trade-off of either a less-realistic Lock-Up for color, timing, spark-tip, etc. control, or localized Lock-Up but no ability to change those other items. That's a shame, because I really like the change on the clash...I made it a pale yellow, like in the original trilogy, and it looks awesome - even better than what was originally programmed. Oh, well, given how mind-blowingly awesome these proffie/neopixel sabers are, it's a minor issue, and maybe one that will be corrected when OS6 comes out.

​@@AbsoluteSabers so my 3.9 proffie saber arrived yesterday and unfortunately I've got the "no webUSB" error like many others. I've looked into a bunch of videos (mostly yours) which are really great but is there a really simple option for newbies like me to just enable the webUSB for the board without all the programming? Or is your 4 steps video the perfect way? I've seen the option to add the "mass storage+ web usb tool" in Arduino, can only this work? Or should I really do it completely step by step to finally enter the easy web editor?

[@AbsoluteSabers]

@krystianrzepecki1154 unfortunately to my knowledge buddy the only way to enable it is to do so via the arduino software. The easiest way to do it would be to just use the existing config that came on your saber, there’s usually a copy of it on the sd card, that way you’re not changing anything except the webusb option

[@NoobScrub]

For some reason when I try to use this the website detects the proffie board but says “No webusb interface found”. I have tried different cables, web browsers, driver updates but nothing has worked please help

[@AbsoluteSabers]

Unfortunately that means your proffie board doesn’t have web usb interface activated so you can’t use the editor until you load a custom config. I’ve got a couple of proffie tutorials which will help

Am I doing something wrong for it not to show up?

Also, is there a limit to how many fonts? It seems like you have a LOT, but usually I thought the limit was around 20, so I’m wondering if once I get close to that number I need to delete some presets before making new ones

So you can put the sound font onto the sd card and then use the editor to add it and make the style yes

You may need to follow the actual route of using arduino and doing a config for it mate as web usb may not be activated on your current settings. I do have a full tutorial on proffie so go check that out, it’s a long one but if you follow it you’ll be fine 🤘

[@HotheadGT3]

@@AbsoluteSabers thanks for the response. Is there a way to tell if my settings are correctly setup? I am going to try again tonight. This version is much easier than the config version so hopefully I can get it to work.

check out my proffie tutorials buddy. sounds like the board isnt set up for mass storage access

hi i saw the lando sound font tutorial is using proffie os 5.7 and this is os 6 do they work same ?

[@AbsoluteSabers]

Please watch my latest video on proffie OS6, there are some slight differences buddy, but mostly the same, also, watch till the end to see how to add fonts easily too

[@fatmonkey46]

So do I keep the battery and Sd in the saber while editing ?

[@8antlers]

I plug my lightsaber into my computer in exactly the same way you do, with battery+SD card inserted, but nothing comes up on my computer. What do I do?

Unfortunately your board may not be configured for usb web access buddy, you’ll need to do it the proper way, check my channel for my profile 4 step guide, it’s around an hour long, don’t skip ahead, please take the time and watch/follow it, pausing where necessary

I just purchased my first Proffie Saber and i was wondering if this same program would work on a removable chassis. The saber is the Ulitmate Works RVS. Just wanted to know if i still have this as an option for editing styles.

[@AbsoluteSabers]

If it’s a proffie soundboard then yes. Good choice in saber by the way, I have the asteria RVS, gorgeous hilt, you’ll love it ✌️

[@spencergray4092]

@@AbsoluteSabers oh thank you!. Since i know you have the the RVS i have 1 more question for you. I bought it from the PachStore and it says it comes with a cord for charging. Is it ONLY a charging cord or can it be used for data transfer as well?

[@AbsoluteSabers]

@@spencergray4092 I haven’t tried using it for data transfer, my advice is pick up a micro sd card reader, they’re not expensive, better way to transfer files to the sd card, quicker too!

Hi, Im new to lightsabers and Programming these but I just got an lightsaber for the first time and now I’m eager to Programm it. But the website just says in the top left corner when asking for an proffieboard that there’s an proffieboard and not one that is paired/connected. I can’t really figure out why my pc doesn’t want to pair as the proffieboard is shown but not as connected and it doesn’t give me the option to pair. Please Help :(

[@AbsoluteSabers]

the board may not be configured for web usb my friend, you will unfortunately need to learn how to flash your board with a new config, or if you have a copy of your current config. There are several videos on how to do this on youtube, I should have one up in the next week or so.

Does this work with all updates of the proffie

[@AbsoluteSabers]

Yes I believe so, they have updated the web usb editor to work with the latest versions of proffie os and have improved on it also

I have a proffie saber I got from korbanth. It came with fonts and blade styles. Will those stay or will they be deleted? Is there a way to save what's on there already?

[@Tome1492]

Hi. I got my Darth Vader (MPP) from Korbanth last week. I used this editor and it didn't erase the installed fonts. It seems to work. BUT, I am rookie programer so I still could break something. I made two backups of the original config. Keep in mind that according the Korbanth's website, adjusting the fonts will violate their warranty. So make sure everything works and that are you are ready for that risk before you start programming anything. Good luck.

[@Tome1492]

Also, you need to get a right angle usb micro data transfer cable if you don't have one already. They are available at amazon. Make sure you don't get usb c and that it's rated for data transfer.

[@RezidentZombie]

@@Tome1492 thank you. I have been wanting to add new fonts and blade styles but didn't want to mess up what was on there.

[@derekneese9497]

I'm following the instructions and it's working for the most part save for a small issue. When I add a new font, my saber will say "font directory not found" at the same time as the font startup sound when switching to that font. However, the font itself still turns on and works fine. Any fix ideas?

[@AbsoluteSabers]

That’s definitely a new one, never experienced that before. I would delete it and add it back again, see if that fixes it

Define “custom one” like pre on effects, post off effects?

[@gazzy6294]

So i cant just drag the font in and be done with it ? I have to change the color myself ?

[@AbsoluteSabers]

Unfortunately not my friend, the board looks for specific folders which are determined by your config so if you just drag and drop new fonts onto the sd card they won’t work, to do it that way you would need to just replace the individual sound files within one of the existing font folders. I do have a video on how to do this if you check the channel 🤘

[@flaresabers1401]

How would I be able to get on your approved vendors list?

[@AbsoluteSabers]

You need to be established for a minimum of a year, have stock available at your location, be transparent as to the manufacturer of the sabers, offer warranty, good reliable customer service and prices need to be reasonable. Some vendors charge £50-£300 more for sabers than they should. These may seem like very stringent requirements but due to the increase in pop up LGT resellers overcharging and scamming people I have to make sure my subscribers and followers are well taken care of.
