action="get_beat_counter" / 4/>
why you put "/4" ?
It's an error, a "/" it's an end of a line so if you add a thing, there's an error

becouse i try to devide the outcome by 4 so that instead of a beatcounter, i get a barcount

I've done some research yesterday.
Couldn't find a way to get a bar counter without doing some math.
And unfortunately you can't do so...
The only way I could think of is something like this, but haven't tried...
var "myCounter" 0 ? get_beat_counter & param_mod 4.0 & param_equal 0 ? set "myCounter" 1 & get_var "myCounter" : nothing : var "myCounter" 1 ? get_beat_counter & param_mod 4.0 & param_equal 0 ? set "myCounter" 2 & get_var "myCounter" : nothing : var "myCounter" 2 ? get_beat_counter & param_mod 4.0 & param_equal 0 ? set "myCounter" 3 & get_var "myCounter" : nothing
.......
Intention:
Get the beat_counter and divide it with the modulo operation.
E.g. you got 3 Beats, divide it by mod 4... 3%4 != 0, so not a full bar over.
you got 4 beats, divide it by mod 4... 4%4 = 0. 1 bar is over, save 1 to your var and return the value of your var, then go on.
You now are at Beat 7, 7%4 != 0, not a bar over yet.
Beat 8%4 = 0 -> 2nd bar over, save it to your var, return var value go on...

I'll look into it tonight, bear with me couse I'm no programmer & have 0 exp with skinning :P
I'm guessing this creates a variable that holds the bar count.. I'd still need a way to display it?

Yes, that is the idea behind the skript.
If it will work? I don't know.
I'm no skinner either, but I think the script should be in the skin.
As the "Action" like in the examples above.

I see a problem, for this to work right you need bars to happen as 0,4,8 etc, VDJ has bars happen 1,5,9.
I knew no 0 beat would be a problem at some point.

I don't know if I get you, but I think the way VDJ handles the bars is irrelevant.
Because all you do is divide the beatcounter and then "add 1" to your variable.
So all is related to beats.

With how V8 counts (1-32), beat 4 (which would return 1 with your script) isn t the start of the next bar, beat 5 is.
Other sequencing software I've used always starts on 0/0
I'm sure it can be worked around,

yea, beat-1 I guess
This does start to get way too complicated for me so I think the bast thing to do is to make a request in the skinsection :s
