Release EliteChroma

hoodini · Jan 3, 2024

Having the following issue
1) installed razor Synapse 3 (as i followed the instructions on git)

Razer Synapse 3 or the Razer Chroma SDK

**Note only the Synapse 3 was installed. nothing else (all other apps are unchecked as i assumed only the Synapse app is needed)
2) when running elite chroma I get an error "elite chrome is unable to find the razer chroma SDK"
Also i didn't find the option to install the SDK...

your kind help is needed

Update:

Even that the installation steps don't mention to install any other module (only Synapse 3) I tried installing the Chroma connect module.
Now Elite Chroma app starts and then immediately crashes, event log shows 2 entries:
(note i tried also running as admin with same results and also note this is fresh win11 installation + all latest .NET distributions)

The TG Factory error/crash is due to new thargoid content that EC doesn't recoginse. I had it with the maelstroms until Elrith updated it. He had issues getting notifications from the forums so my guess is thats the issue now as the last issue I raised is still untouched. I'll raise an issue on github as thats where he initially responded before.

Thanks, u mean my startup crash and error is related to the thargoid content even that the game is still not running?
regardless appreciated if you can add my crash/logs to the GIT and hopefully to have this fixed asap.
many thanks
