3 device(s) detected. VID: 0x461, PID: 0x4ec0, API v7 Let's try to set some colors... SetColor result: 1, error 0 SetColor 2 result: 1, error 0

after disabling the AWCC service, the colors changed on my mouse. are the lights on my keyboard supposed to also change too?

[Billybobertjoe]

so it worked!!!

[T-Troll]

Greeeat! So we hack it!

What we need to do next:

• First, i drop you another test app - i need to check lights off/on/dim works well.
• If OK, i release new package with BASIC mouse support, and you can use it.
• Then we test light effects and release full support version.

In fact, this is about 85% of full support for now.

No, your keyboard colors should not change, as you can see, i use mouse device only. But both keyboard and tron already supported, so just download and start last tools release, define light names, and have fun.

After we are finish support, i tickle Aurora guys about AW support as well.

[Billybobertjoe]

Ok ill do this tomorrow

[Billybobertjoe]

when can we start? also, is there a way i can integrate this into aurora?

[T-Troll]

I have GMT+7. ^_^

Ok, let's do the latest test in this round. Here is the app: AlienFX Sample App.exe.zip

As usual, disable awcc service and start it. What it should do:

• Set 2 mouse lights to white.
• Wait you to press Enter.
• Off all lights and wait for Enter.
• Dim (to half) all lights and wait for Enter.
• Return lights to full brightness and... wait for Enter pressed.

If all steps doing well (keep your eye what color lights have after it's back on), that's all for basic support.

About Aurora, yes, but some effort needed - they use slightly weird structures for light modules.

Now set for half brightness...

... then return back to full... Done!

[Billybobertjoe]

it all worked fine

[Billybobertjoe]

at the end, the color changed to blue

[Billybobertjoe]

i had it set to white at the start

[T-Troll]

at the end, the color changed to blue

Is it changed to blue after "Now set for half brightness..." or after app finished?

If first - i need to modify light resume, if second - it means AWCC change it (maybe you forget to stop AWCCService).

[Billybobertjoe]

It changes it as soon as i start the app

[T-Troll]

I mean, change from white back to blue?

[Billybobertjoe]

Yes

[Billybobertjoe]

Oh, no. I manually set it to white before starting the app so that the change was obvious

[T-Troll]

Crazy. I set it to white into the app!

[Billybobertjoe]

Weird

[Billybobertjoe]

So what now?

[T-Troll]

Another test app - AlienFX Sample App.exe.zip

What it should do:

• Set first color to red, second to green, third to blue.
• Off lights
• Dim lights
• Undim lights

Please, check, does it work as intended?

[Billybobertjoe]

Everything worked except for the changing colors part. None of the colors changed

[T-Troll]

Fck... But it did it before. NB: Only mouse colors should be changed! Ok, let me think.

[Billybobertjoe]

ok

[Billybobertjoe]

wait...

[Billybobertjoe]

it seems to like the color blue

[Billybobertjoe]

if it does change colors, it changes to light blue. not white or red. just light blue on the whole mouse

[T-Troll]

Got it. Try this one - AlienFX Sample App.exe.zip, please.

Method is the same as before, but if i right, it will not off/dim ALL mouse lights...

[Billybobertjoe]

Right when i start the app, the light turns green. When it is at half brightness, the light is white. It is also white at full brightness

[T-Troll]

Correct.

By the way, it's 4 different effect types available.

Great, now i integrate it into tools, then share beta release for you for testing.

PS: By the way, Aurora have Dell LightFX wrapper support. And i have LightFX emulator. I'll write you about how to use it later on.

[Billybobertjoe]

ok! CANT WAIT!!!

[T-Troll]

Can you please check effect modes meanwhile?

Here is the test app: AlienFX Sample App.exe.zip

You need to run it, it will set light #1 to colors between green and blue and effect to given mode (from 1 to 7), then wait for input. Check what light doing (1 should be steady color, 2-5 i see into your logs but have no idea what is it, 6-7 worth to check just for sure), then write it down for me and press enter for next mode.

[T-Troll]

I included support for mouses at latest release.

Hope effects will work as well.

[Billybobertjoe]

i can no longer add effects with ur app.not even with the keyboard anymore

[Billybobertjoe]

it worked fine with the previouse version. now the drop down box is greyed out

[T-Troll]

Did you check effect types using sample app? Do it, please!

[Billybobertjoe]

How?

[T-Troll]

Can you please check effect modes meanwhile?

Here is the test app: AlienFX Sample App.exe.zip

You need to run it, it will set light no.1 to colors between green and blue and effect to given mode (from 1 to 7), then wait for input. Check what light doing (1 should be steady color, 2-5 i see into your logs but have no idea what is it, 6-7 worth to check just for sure), then write it down for me and press enter for next mode.

[Billybobertjoe]

youll understand what the google drive link is for afteer reading the txt file

[T-Troll]

Got it. So final mapping codes to app:

1. Color
2. Breathing
3. Morph
4. Spectrum
5. Pulse
6. Rainbow

BTW, seems like mode 6 is not supported by AWCC. ^_^

Ok, we do it, i'll add code mappings into SDK at next release! Thank you for help!

[Billybobertjoe]

Are you sure it isn't supported by AWCC? i use that setting all the time for my mouse lights.

[T-Troll]

It was not existed into your logs, so maybe they set it as default at device start.

[Billybobertjoe]

It is called “color wave” i think

[T-Troll]

Can you, please, check all mouse functions working now and close this issue if it's ok?

PS: Don't forget to add 2nd mouse light, i see you use one (ID0) only, but your mouse have 2 (also ID1, i use it for testing before).

[Billybobertjoe]

Can we continue this on discord or no?

[T-Troll]

This topic is about mice, not about overall and keyboard issues. Of course, we can continue other discussions in Discord.

[Billybobertjoe]

When i try to set the other mouse light as a different color, it only acts like there is one light and sets to one color, not separate colors

[Billybobertjoe]

[T-Troll]

So light ID0 did not work. Ok, let me check.
