I see that you can allow the CTRL and ALT keys to be used to modify layouts on the fly (hold down CTRL/ALT, etc). Could this functionality be added for L-Shift as well? Or, perhaps even better, a way for the software to allow user-defined keys to exhibit this behavior?

Hi team,

I went to play overwatch today and the keyboard effects now arent working, they were working the other day and nothing has chnged, except for an overwatch update. Can anyone else confirm if they have issues after the latest overwatch update? Im on a G910 and it was working perfectly, but now nothing, They LEDs just go blank, and the aurora software just shows a blank keyboard

I will need to find someone who has one of the following keyboards to test and fix foreign keyboard layouts.

• Logitech - Japanese layout
• Corsair - French layout
• Corsair - Deutsch layout
• Razer - French layout
• Razer - Deutsch layout

I will add more to this list as I add more keyboard layouts.

Hi, I installed everything which was needed and it keeps crashing on launch. The buttons on my g810 do random shiny things but after that I have to stop the programm. Here's the log:

As per a report by a user:

Having an issue with latest Aurora and Overwatch. Aurora slows the game down immensly and every time a lighting effect is changing, it freezes for abnout 0.5 seconds. Please advise

Hi, as I say in the title I have a french keyboard and when i press Q it's illuminate A and when i press Z it's illuminate W (Sorry for my bad english i try to do my best :D ) So can you do something to fix it please it's would be cool :) Thank you.

I am unable to launch the application. Looks like some sort of memory leak. The mouse pointer skips across the screen for about 30 seconds and the keyboard is unresponsive. After that, the system works fine but Aurora.exe has high CPU usage and it keeps using more and more memory until the 1.5GB mark then crashes. The Aurora UI never appears, aside from the instructions on how to configure LGS.

I have a Logitech G810. I am using the latest 64 bit version of LGS - 8.83.85, but older versions had the same behavior. I am also on Windows 10 Pro x64 with all of the prerequisite software installed. I attached the logs, so you can see all of the errors.
2016_10_06.zip

If I pick Hanzo, for example, at the start of a match, the theme of the keyboard is a subdued, earthy tone. However, once the match starts, if I switch to a different character, the theme of the keyboard does not change.

Using Logitech G910.

Hello,

I have a G810 and when i tick the checkbox start with windows, nothing happens at windows startup. I have to launch aurora manually.

Is it a known bug or the issue is just by my side ?

Anyway, it's not a big deal. Keep up the good work !!

OS : Windows 10 x64
LGS 8.83.85
Keyboard : G810
Mouse : G500

I would love if this would work on my budget keyboard. :]

Logitech G510s

Hi. I've just downloaded it for the first time and did the whole setup but it crashes every time i start it up.

Error is
Fatal Exception caught : System.Collections.Generic.KeyNotFoundException: The given key was not present in the dictionary. at System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary2.get_Item(TKey key)
`
I've attached the log. I have a logitech G810 keyboard, if that helps at all.

Tried to wrap razer chroma thingy for overwatch, no problem to patch but when you launch the game there is an error message saying MSVCP140.dll is missing.
You can still play the game but no modification on keyboard plus heavy fps drop ingame until you shut aurora down.

Hello there,

I am currently using a Logitech g910. My problem is, that I'm using the US Region setting and the English language setting with a German keyboard. I am German, and I do live in Germany, I just like the English language better, which is why I decided to do this. Now, to my actual problem. Some of the keys are misplaced in the software and some of them don't light up. With some of them, also the interactive lighting effects don't work, or they originate from a completely different key from the one that is being pressed. I've tried to circumvent this problem by deleting the US layout and renaming the German one to be the US one. All keys light up, but the "ö" key for example originates from the US "~" one, that should be the "^" one on a German keyboard. But instead, the "^" key is still doing nothing. Also, the "z" and "y" keys are still swapped in the German layout, not on the displayed layout itself, but the interactive lighting effects still use the opposite keys (I have not tested, if there are any additional keys that have this problem). Also, on the displayed German layout within Aurora itself, there are a few minor mistakes still, which would be nice to be fixed.

And finally, I would very much like to thank you for making this program. I've waited a long time to get my g910 to be customized more than the Logitech Gaming Software allows me to, and I very much appreciate your work with Aurora so far. Keep up the awesome work.

Cheers, Alex

As title says, \ key on my Logitech G910 does not light up at all when using Aurora.

Maybe it's regional thing If you can't reproduce the issue, since backslash is Korean Won symbol in Korea.

Before profile import/export can work properly, there has to be some standard between each keyboard brand and layout.

• Establish a "Base line" for freestyle objects.
• Have freestyle objects display in relation to the base line (note, this will break existing freestyles)

Animations is something that exists in Dota 2 profile, but is only used with hero ability effects. I would like to bring this to the general public, allowing users to create their own Animation tracks. A good application of this is to let users create their own "interactive effects" animations. For instance, on button press, instead of a standard circle, it's a box or a square that slowly fades in and then slowly fades out, or when you press a button, it shoots off a line in a random direction.

• Create a new interface for creating Animation Mixes and Animation Tracks.
• Tie this system with interactive effects, Dota 2 effects, and Color Zones.

• Looking into the division support tonight.
• Game communicates with Aurora
• Issue #4 prevents the profile from showing

The Division support is working. It will be included in the next update. The support will be similar to Overwatch, as the game does an extraordinary job at lighting up the keys.

They simply don't trigger anymore when the set time passed. Not even setting the delay to 0 triggers them immediately, even though they should.

Add Conway's Game of Life as an interactive effect as well as an away from keyboard effect.

The wrapper communicates with Aurora, but Aurora does not display the profile. Issue probably related to Event.IsEnabled() function.

Hi.
(my english is too bad.)

Aurora 0.4.2 and 0.4.3 keeps crashing on launch. it's similar issue #20. but 0.4.1 can work on same system.
Im using:
Logitech G810(JP layout)
Win10 x64
LGS x64 8.83.85

should I wait next release for fix? :)
2016_12_06.zip

Would it be possible that when I get a new message in steam or skype, my G810's logo or a key would light up? Sometimes I forget if I got messages and this would help a lot.

Users have reported that wrappers do not work unless the game is run as admin. This was not the case in the previous versions.

I need reports from users who are able to run the Overwatch wrapper. Do you run the game as Admin? What OS are you using? What RGB devices do you have?

I have a problem when using Aurora with my Logitech G810 keyboard as well as my Razer Mamba TE Mouse.

When Aurora is open it disables my mouse lighting settings that are set in the Razer software, making it a solid colour. I can't see an option to disable this, or change my mouse settings in Aurora.

I also have a problem with Overwatch, where the mouse then deactivates all LED's when overwatch is open, not changing colour with character as per the default Razer settings.

Any ideas?

Would you like to add support for these beautiful games like in asetta corsa? There is already a modding tools and also a mod for the dashboard part. Lighting effects would be awesome.

Is it possible to have different kinds of equalizer effect that displays the audio via the LED's?

What I mean with "different kinds" is:

Let us know what you think of this idea!

Please remove.

After installing, i am getting a huge CPU usage and it is not picking up any games. Aurora is using about 40% of my processor, and close to 2GB of RAM. the only thing it seems to do is light up the top 2 rows of the keyboard. (i am using a logitech g910)

I wanted to know if support for Starcraft 2 is going to be a thing. I downloaded this to add a little more excitement to my g910 and it works wonderfully. I would love if it could work with the ability of the selected unit in SC2. That's what I was hoping to be able to do when buying this keyboard. So far, I'm really impressed with Aurora. It's replaced LGS in terms of lighting effects.

Edit : Just noticed the G keys don't seem to react to anything.

My keyboard is US layout. Automatic detection gives me this layout instead.

Also, it seems I have to restart Aurora when I change the layout for it to come into effect, which is fine but I didn't see any related instruction.

In Overwatch, some regional keys miss the lighting effect. For example in this swiss layout, which should be the same as german one, the red marked keys stay black. In the rest of the application, they work perfectly.

In these three files:

• Control_TheDivision.xaml
• Control_Overwatch.xaml
• Control_GTA5.xaml

"but it is still used ad your own risk" should be changed to "but it is still used at your own risk"

I can change Ctrl and Alt just fine, but Windows key stays blue.

Hey man, love the app!

It would be really kickass to see my keyboard light up every time something explodes in Just Cause 3. Right now I'm picturing something like the key wave, set to 12px width, for the blast wave happening on random spots on the keyboard followed by a lingering orange glow.

Thanks a lot for the app.

Is making profiles for certain Websites/URL's an idea for Aurora?
Example: Youtube= Red Spacebar, Arrowkeys, Numbers etc.

On the razer chroma page are a few interesting apps listed. Is it possible to wrap them for Aurara to be used on Logitech Devices?

Tried 1-2 and no result.

Allow user to export a json file as a profile to be imported by other users.

I'm loving the software. I was making some requests on reddit with Star Citizen and now that I've had a chance to use Aurora, I've had some thoughts.

Is it possible to have multiple profiles per game? I think it could be beneficial with macros and such for MMOs. Also, it could be used for games with multiple roles (like Planetside 2's cloaker and Max suit) or different types of vehicles (land and air). We could bind a series of keys to swap between profiles and use the logo to indicate which profile we're on (Alt+Shift 1 for bleh / Alt+shift 2 for blah).

The second is with shortcut assistant. Could it be set up so left ctrl and alt light up differently than right ctrl and alt? With Star Citizen's latest update, they've really hammered in the left alt is separate from right alt. Here's an example of what I mean http://i.imgur.com/NfujyYR.jpg.

Also, not sure if it's been reported but in shrotcut assistant both key zone boxes are labeled as "Shortcut Assistant Ctrl Keys".

When pressing the Enter key on the numpad, the ripple originates from the primary Enter key near the center of the keyboard. Not sure if there's a way to separate the two.

Was testing the ripple effect moving to my mouse and was very confused for a brief moment.

I'm personally not sure if it's still supported in the game as the option is hidden to non-alienware hardware users but it would be nice to use it with my Razer keyboard

Hi, I have installed Aurora yesterday and it works great with most of the games supported on my g810. But when i try with overwatch the program (and the keyboard) keep the default profile. I have installed the program following the istructions (even if the logitech program has changed a bit) and i have runned it in administrator mode but nothing!
What do i have to do?

I've seen you mention in a few other posts that Overwatch controls the lighting on the keyboard but I've noticed with my G810 that Reinhardt, Bastion, Soldier 76, and Reaper have no sustained backlight coloring, while their action keys light up & the ripple effect appears briefly when selecting them. And strangely, Reaper's ripple effect seems to rapidly degrade and not finish rippling outward.

Additionally, McCree, Widowmaker, Torbjorn, and Roadhog all appear dark to barely existent.

I was wondering if there's any chance, similar to the option to enable color enhancing for Logitech devices, that those color patterns could somehow be enhanced or brightened up when Overwatch has started?

P.S. Extreme gratitude for Aurora, this has completely changed the experience with my keyboard. A+

Hello

On the v0.4.5 aurora always crash on startup of the pc, but if i open its ok.
Im using win 10 x64

Sorry for my english

When i open a game, i see the colours change, but dont work properly. And overwatch doesnt even change the colours. Pathced the game, but dont really know what to do.

Either recheck uninitialized devices again for initialization. Or check if their corresponding utilities are running and initialized their SDK based on that.

The "Color Breathing" option seems to stutter a bit on a Logitech G810. The animation seems choppy regardless of the colors chosen+

I'm not shure how to setup logitech software corectly to make "the Division" work.
Logitech has an Profile for this game, which loads on start. No additional lightning effects will happen.
Also, if shortcut assistant is enabled, pressing left STRG key ( which is mapped by default ) will make the loaded Profile stop working, lights went off.
Anyway, excellent work. Dota and Overwatch worked like a charme.
