If you would like to know anything about Nthusim, I'd be happy to explain in detail. The reason why there is no manual up till now is that so far every single screen setup has been different. A generic manual does not properly cover every eventuality on screen designs. I take the time to work with each customer individually to best assist for their particular screen design. There is no need to randomly dig around for the information. I'm always available to answer questions same day. I prefer to give the customer a live person to help them through the build and answer questions in detail to best suit their individual build, not a generic manual that leaves it up to the customer to fumble around for the answers. I believe human interaction when configuring the screen is important in getting everything right.
If you are offering to assist in documenting a manual, I'd be grateful for the help. I still feel the best way to assist is to work with each person one-on-one. It ensures the design and implementation is best suited for your individual needs. That being said, we are in the process of working on a generic manual for Nthusim 4.0. One of the things we need for the manual are pictures of many of the steps involved in the configuration specific to each screen configuration type. Meaning we need to document for single screen, dual-flat screen, dual-circular screen, triple-flat screen, triple-circular screen. We even have a few that are doing triple-dome screen. The problem becomes that there are so many different variations that the manual content gets muddied with detail on extraneous screen configurations. There are around a dozen basic screen designs we'd need to properly document in order to do a proper manual depending upon field of view, end use, room size and projector lens throw requirements. I hope you can understand why we've gone the route of helping on an individual basis before now. I do appreciate your hesitation because of the lack of manual. I'd like to alleviate that by helping you in detail though. Thanks,
