Game changes my keyboard color

[speaker4thedead]

lol, that's such a weird damn bug. For some reason, not sure what causes it, but something with the game makes it change my keyboard backlight and won't let me reset it (at least not while in game).

Its not a bug. You can disable the setting in your keyboard profile.

What do you mean? I've never set up a profile for my logitech anywhere and i've never seen this happen anywhere else.

The game installs profiles. A few games do that. Might be that you have played other games that do not do it.

Found an option to change it so that games don't change my illumination.

Never encountered this before in 4 years of having this keyboard and playing games. Really threw me off, lol. Thanks for the help mate.

Open 'Logitech Gaming Software'.
Left Click cog symbol towards bottom right.
Uncheck 'Allow games to control illumination'.
Problem gone.

Edit: too late, never mind...

I have a custom lighting proflie set up in LGS, but Civ VI seems to either overwrite it (allow game to control lighting) or ignore it completely (uncheck the box to allow the game to control the lighting).

Any thoughts as to how to let my custom lighting show up while I'm playing?

Every time I restart my computer, the 'Allow games to control illumination' setting is re-enabled. Anyone else have this problem?

no.if you shut down properly it should save the setting changes,

Actually have a similar issue. Sometimes, when I restart the game, the game disables my logitech mouse profile (some hotkeys). Then I need to bring the logitech driver in the foreground and it works again.

[kal_el814]

I forgot to post that I fixed this issue for me.

When Civ VI is running, if you open up Logitech Gaming Software, you'll see an icon along the bottom bar that's a keyboard / phone. If you select that, you'll see there's a Civ VI applet. Messing around with the AXR / LED lighting checkboxed let the "normal" LED keyboard settings come through.
