hi all, I am completely new to such DIY projects, never done this before, but managed to get these going, first I used [iFlag] where colors were incorrect also and now switched to [SimHub] which also colors are incorrect.
YELLOW does not show at all --> yellow comes up as light green
WHITE does not show at all --> white comes up as light blue
hardware I am using:
Arduino Uno Rev3
Sunfounder Full Color RGB LED Matrix Driver Shield + RGB Matrix Screen
below screenshot, is how i setup the hardware in SimHub:

I noticed the colors being shown incorrectly, since in testing or in game, when yellow flag comes up or anything with yellow, both in iFlag and now in SimHub - the yellow flag signal is light green - not yellow. the same for the white flag and chequered flag, those white are light blue.
is there somewhere to correct these colors?
thank you all in advance for your help.
Hi ! It looks like a color fidelity issue indeed, you can edit the simhub included animations by going into C:\Program Files (x86)\SimHub\MatrixAnimations then doubleclick on the animation you want to change,
Don't forget to keep a safe copy of your modified animation files, they will get overwritten with simhub default when updating simhub, so you will need to put back your modified ones.
is there a way to calibrate? colors? or reconfigure write/ code colors?
Currently there is no way to recalibrate colors, it only relies on the matrix color accuracy which in your case seems to be totally off,
In the editor you can peek another color and paint with it (it works a bit like paint in windows),
then it will save when closing
hi @wotever, thank you, yes will get new RGB Matrix and test it out.
thank you and best regards

i was not able to figure out why colors are so bad and way off on the Sunfounder Full Color RGB LED Matrix Driver Shield + RGB Matrix Screen
YELLOW is bright green
ORANGE is bright green (almost identical to yellow)
WHITE is bright blue
and i tested this with 4x ready assembled units purchased, based on Sunfounder LED RGB Maxtrix + Arduino Uno Rev3.
so want to try new combination, what is possible?
can anyone tell me if i can use this in SimHub with Arduino Uno REV3?
Adafruit NeoPixel NeoMatrix 8x8 - 64 RGB LED Pixel Matrix
is this possible with this NeoMatrix?
