Support for ASUS/ROG Aura Sync

About time we had this, yeah? Thanks.

There are no industry standards for RGB lighting so we would need to manually implement each LED hardware manufacturer individually and from our experience with working with Razer and Corsair, it takes a really long time to get things to work properly, especially as most manufacturers don't cater to Wallpaper Engine's use case (especially when it comes to things like hibernation and startup which don't happen with games that use LED lights).

However, as far as I remember, Asus teamed up with Corsair and they now seem to partially support Asus Aura Sync via Corsair iCUE, so you could try and install Corsair iCUE and then hook up Wallpaper Engine through that. I don't know if that will work though, we don't have any Asus Aura hardware at hand.

Appreciate the in-depth reply. I've not seen this addressed, as such, previously. I'll be happy to test your suggestion and report back here. Cheers.

No. Music vis and things like that work but, unless I'm mistaken, it would require integration into the Armory Crate package ASUS use to manage AURA peripherals. I don't know how it works on Corsair/Razer but I presume it's similar. In any event, with the plugin "loaded" I can run the desks but actual integration with my AURA sync doesn't work.

+1 for your Asus Aura support reconsideration. Their peripherals don't sync with WE nor Corsair, only what iCue sees, their gpu and motherboard do.
