Last updated 4 months ago

Starting from version R4, Depence is capable of simulating drone shows. For this purpose, we have defined our own Show Stream file format, which can contain a complete drone show. These shows can be placed and played within the Depence timeline. The following manufacturers already support this format:

  • Dronisos (www.dronisos.com)

  • Celestial Drones (www.celestial.show)

  • VergeAero (www.vergeaero.com)

  • More are following..

Additionally, it is possible to import drone shows in CSV format, created using SkyBrush () .

Import a Show

  1. 3D Hierarchy > Add > Drones > Drone-Swarm

  2. Repository > Sequences > Create a new Show File and open the show

  3. In the Sequencer right click > New Track > Drone Show Track

  4. Right click the Track > Track Settings

  5. In the Settings Window > Choose the correct Drone-Swarm Object

  6. Right click in the track area > Add Events > Add Drone Show

  7. Load a Drone Show File

All Drones will be rendered relative to the drone-swarm position
