@Hari0s try this build

@Hari0sпопробуйте эту сборку

Now even the previous backlights that did not work have disappeared, thank you!

[seerge]

@Hari0s does the Ambient mode work?

[Hari0s]

@Hari0sрежим Ambient работает?

yes, yes, thanks!

[seerge]

@Hari0s ok, as for other "missing" modes, did they work for you in a first place ? You have a model with basic 4 zone RGB, and those modes usually don't work on such devices.

[Hari0s]

@Hari0sок, а что касается других «отсутствующих» режимов, они у вас вообще работали? У вас модель с базовым 4-зонным RGB, и эти режимы обычно не работают на таких устройствах.

yes, they didn't work. They just didn't turn on. If I turned them on, then the previous mode worked, which worked.

On my Strix G15 (2022) G513RC (4 zone RGB):
Ambient mode flickers whenever the screen changes color, but the colors change properly.
But It supports Aura Adaptive color pretty smoothly. Is there a way to fix the flickering?

Thank you! This works perfectly well.

I think @Hari0s also faced the same issue.

[prakharb5]

After using for a while, I must say, it runs more smoothly than Asus' implementation. Kudos to the dev!

[prakharb5]

Just noticed a small issue. Opening the window now makes it flicker white for a split second before loading😓

@prakharb5 that's how winforms UI works for dark theme, how is it related to backlight ?

[prakharb5]

how is it related to backlight ?

No, it was just something I noticed. Nevermind

[bourbonbourbon]

Ambient mode not working on G513RS and GPU Mode, Heatmap also doesn't seem to work as nothing lights up.
Strobe, Rainbow, Color Cycle, Breathe, Static works

[andrey6060]

In my G18, numpad and some other buttons rgb not working in ambient mode (v137)

[Robertserpentain]

Hi, I have the exact same problem. My model is G614JI thanks in advance.

[seerge]

@Robertserpentain do you have per-key or 4-zone backlight on your device ?

[Robertserpentain]

I think it's 4-Zone and thank you very much

[bourbonbourbon]

Mine is per-key but ambient mode does not work. My keyboard just does not light up. My previous comment #1641 (comment)

[seerge]

@Robertserpentain try this build, I have added your model to the list with limited RGB
GHelper.zip

[seerge]

@bourbonbourbon your case could be opposite. App assumes that your model has limited 4-zone RGB cause your model (G513RS) has that on most of the markets.

If you have per-key RGB instead, you can enforce that by adding following line to the beginning of config.json (quit app before making edits)

"per_key_rgb": 1,

Perfect!! Thank you very much :)
I've made you a small donation thanks again

Yes thank you it is working! But I see Lid and Logo as option under Laptop Backlight. I cannot control those

Well, I'm also having problems with the logo now. I don't get the option to control it in Ghelper and it's locked on blue but the keyboard and bar are working perfect :) thanks and sorry

[seerge]

@Robertserpentain this build should still show all checkbox columns as before, but still use 4-zone RGB for your model
GHelper.zip

[seerge]

@bourbonbourbon cause full-zone backlight is linked with that UI :) just ignore those checkboxes.

Perfect thank you very much :)

[seerge]

@bourbonbourbon actually, try this build. It should separate 4-zone RGB setting from those checkboxes

Hi guys . My laptop dosen't seem to work with ambient or heatmap .
It's asus tuf f15 i5 11gen.
It didn't work with aura ' so by hardly finding a sol. I get your Ghelper at start it worked smooth but clashes with armory carate
so i dissabled armory carate , but some time later it stoped working so I reinstalled Ghelper and it worked for some time but after that reinstalling also not working .
Please ignore grametical mistakes.
