RGB Keyboard support (Logitech)

i just got a G910 and was planning to make something like this. do you have any plans on a public release in the future or even to make it open source?

also what language is it written in? if you don't plan to release this or make it open source i will probably try and make my own basic version and wouldn't mind a hint where to start.

if you do make this open source i will probably have a look at contributing if i can. lastly if you need someone to test in a different setup, PM me. i would love to help with a project like this.

A ripple effect that matches the landing pad holograms, both in colour (i.e. red for high-tech, blue for extraction, orange for industrial) and in pulse speed.

Great for VR!

Wow, great Job! +Rep!
The FSD effect ist really, really cool.
I'm looking forward to you publishing this little masterpiece... :)

P.S.:
Your little projekt in fact inspired me to mess around with the Logitech RGB SDK, too.
It's quite fun, but my most adavanced procedure by now is just able to "write" some text on the keyboard by lighting or pulsing the letters one after another.

Now that's the idea.

Tho for kb users, judging from the videos. Some time ago I switched from G11 to G413 silver, never been a fan of those rgb keyboards. Sure, it looks awesome, can create a lightshow. Once I was tempted to get one but played a bit with Razer Chroma and finally decided it''s not worth. Hence G413. Plus I have G13 and 3D pro stick so semi hotas with keyboard mirrored on G13.

But the idea is great. It adds to the game.
Well done CMDR.

Yeah, most likely I should just release the source (it's a mess currently though from all the experimenting, so I am a bit ashamed :D). Also, I wrote it using Java because it was a lot easier to experiment with the SDK that way.

I got to a point where I've implemented keys/features that I use all the time and kinda paused for a bit to play the actual game. The effects must be redone to allow for other keyboard manufacturers/layouts though. I did the animations using the Logitech Effect Editor and wrote a simple parser to be able to use them in my app.

EDIT: Since I have little time (also in preperation for DW2), I've put my code to GitHub - https://github.com/DrParanoia/ed-rgb. Be gentle though, and please don't judge my methods :D

Great i will have a look and contribute if i can. i have done quite a bit of java work recently so hopefully i can make sence of the code and don't worry your code can't be as bad as stuff i have done in the past.

I've a couple G910s that are not working properly (which I still need to cobble together and make a working one) but currently I'm running a G513. I have a generic color configuration that helps me ID keys quickly and isn't game dependent. But this app looks cool. Are you offering to share this with us? and if so, are there instructions on it's use?
