Hey guys I went ahead and threw together a repo with some of the changes made to the original waaave pool project to get it running on pi 5. It’s not perfect but in my testing it is pretty great for what I needed it for!
I wanted to do this to see if it was possible and as something that I could integrate into my own toolbox for live shows, although I aspire to be great at c++ heady graphics programming I am nowhere near the level it requires to think about the maths and stuff to get this stuff to work super optimized so don’t expect something super crazy!

Flashed that image and made sure it worked with a new sd card so should be good.
