How To Wire A Custom Prop With Pixels 

Holy cow that's a ton! Good luck with your show!

I ran into this same problem. I had a tune to sign from boscoyo, but xlights didn't have the model with my numbers. There are a few different ways to make custom models, but I'd recommend using this website www.lightshowhub.com/tools/xlights-custom-model-builder It's free, you just need an email to sign up. It allows you to import a picture of your model, then you can use the cursor to select where the pixels go and how they are wired. Once you're done, you can export it as a .xmodel file, then import it into xlights. Hope this helps!

Awesome! Thank you very much! @@How2Pixel

So if I were you, I would put all 4 arches on port 1 like you said, then put the mega tree on port 2 and 3. You shouldn't need 3 ports for a 400 pixel mega tree. That would leave you with one extra port if you want to expand in the future. If you put the tree on 2 ports, that would mean 200 pixels a port which should mean you need to do no power injection. If however you have 5v pixels, or run the lights higher then 30%, you would need to power inject. Now like I said before you can setup your show however you want, but I would recommend getting a controller with more than 4 ports for the future. Last year for my first show, I only needed 3 ports with one port having power injection. However, I paid an extra $75 for a 16 port controller instead of a 4 port one. Now this year I'm going to use 11 ports for the show. If I didn't buy the bigger controller, I would need to buy a whole new controller this year for around $200. So if you plan on expanding in the future, you may want to consider a bigger controller. I hope this all helped!
