    Becareful with playing around with AlienFX. it is possible to upload wrong code to the controller and render the whole AlienFX module useless. Some games that use the API did this for various users including me. Y

    Yup, had this problem once with some game, restart helped. Though how much I did not test my application, never had such problem. Also added to app another check for the wrong light index (only existing indexes are allowed) and colours arrays, this shouldn't allow to go out of index for both parameters.
