Alpha 15 loses key pressed effect

jvaleskadevs opened this issue · 4 comments

Hi!

I have a MSI Alpha 15 laptop, I 'm able to change the color in steady mode and use the presets but the problem is that my laptop used to have an effect that WHEN PRESSING A KEY IT CHANGES THE COLOR. Now, color not changes when pressing a key.

EDIT: After reading #24
I think that if use the next config.cfg file in tag v2.0 I'm been able to restore my default configuration but I not have clear if this could brick my laptop keyboard:

all steady ff0000
all effect keypressed

effect keypressed
start ff0000
trans ff00ff 100
trans ff0000 200
end

Is there a way to recover the default settings? or to apply this effect currently with msi-perkeyrgb command line tool?

Which model I must select in the models list since Alpha 15 is not in the list?

Thanks

I'm in the same boat with my MSI Alpha 15.

It looks like it would be fine since you're including transitions, but I'm just not feeling brave enough to risk it. I wish I'd see this before I used this program and lost that ability, though.

Indeed, the risk outweighs my need, although I would sincerely like to recover that effect.

On the other hand, have you tried in Windows with the official MSI program, I don't have Windows and don't intend to install it but if you have dual boot maybe you can restore it to its original state.

I do not have a dual boot with Windows. I'm only running Linux, unfortunately. That said, it be great if SteelSeries fixed the problem in #24 and released the firmware via lvfs.
