Any Way to Extract or "Capture" Keyboard Lighting Profile?
Just wondering if there's any way to get to the keyboard lighting profile so I can have it active even outside of the game.

Edit: Okay so as far as I can tell, there's no way to export the data from the game. So I made it myself and it's surprisingly easy. For anyone else who cares, this is what I did in iCue:

Layer 1: Solid - Bright Orange (ff6500): Only on the `, Tab, Caps, Shift, CTRL, Windows, Alt, Spacebar, Backspace, \, Enter and Menu keys. Also the long "Corsair" lighting row at the very top of the keyboard should be selected. I also included the volume control keys as personal preference.
Layer 2: Rain - Bright Orange (ff6500) + White (ffffff). Set speed to slow.
Layer 3: Color Pulse - Greenish Grey Dark (3f4b41) Greenish Grey Light (d5ffdc). Set speed to slow.

It's not 100% the same, but it's close enough.

For what keyboards does this game have automatic lighting profile?

At least a Corsair K95 RGB Pro. Don't know about any others.

Corsair K70 mk2 series as well
How do I turn off the orange colored keyboard and mouse lighting profile that automatically turns on whenever I start this game? I have a Corsair STRAFE RGB keyboard and a Corsair M65 PRO RGB mouse with Corsair iCUE (latest) software on Windows 10 Pro with the latest firmware/drivers etc... for everything. I can't find any options in the in-game or main settings menus to turn this annoying orange lighting scheme off. Can anyone help me? Thanks!

Look in ICUE. There is somewhere a option "disable SDK". If you change that option games don´t change the keyboard lighting.
Thank you turning off the "SDK" button in iCUE Settings menu fixed it! Much appreciated! :)

I ask myself why I purchased the K70 mk2. I thought it would be fun to have the RGB-lighing, but I ran into problems with ICUE and ended with setting the color to orange for all keys and buttons. I could have had the same with the older and cheaper mk1.

Have had no issue with the K95 Platinum. Love it, in fact. There's even an on-board switch to turn the lighting off if I so desire.

Just wish I could capture the lighting profile from the game. I love it.

I like that feature and it used to work at the beginning of the game and on the menus, but now in game there is no light at all on my keyboard

edit : nvm I got it, the keyboard lighting is on when you wear your gas mask

Im using a Strafe MK2 and I totally love it too.
generated my version too but got boring very quickly :D
I love how the color change according to your health or lighting or blood or surrounding.
Every game should do it with the same quality of course :D
