GumbyDammit223 Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 Tried installing it from v2.7.78. It came up with some sort of macro error and the available lighting effects for my Scimitar mouse were gone, and only static lighting was available. Ended up uninstalling it going back to v2.7.78.

VCVC Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 The invisible drop down menus text bug is finally fixed in this version. yay! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommanderXXL Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 I have the same problem as GumbyDammit223. After installing it over 2.7.78 my Scimitar was all dark except for the DPI indicator. I tried installing my old rainbow colors again, but the only thing that works is "Static". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GumbyDammit223 Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 I had to re-import all of my profiles to load everything again. Thankfully I just saved them prior to installing the new software! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yakumo Posted December 21, 2016 Author Share Posted December 21, 2016 I uninstalled the old version, telling it to leave settings, then installed the new, and didn't notice any problem as of yet, but I only had a couple of profiles I'd set up myself and a few downloaded ones.

gloomd Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 This version is buggy that my Sabre is not able to use non-advanced lighting effects anymore together with advanced lighting efforts for Strafe. Described above as "dark" mouse with only DPI light. It didn't happen in any previous versions. What really mattered me is advanced lighting programing is EXTREMELY not friendly to most of users. I can't even make any effects as simple as factory stock ones. Do something!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyendrey Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 Maybe I'm just missing something. The update wiped out my default profiles to my corsair Strafe KB, mouse, and headset. What is really irritating is the change in the static colors options. It appears that individual colors can no longer be applied - it is all one color or nothing. Help, what am I overlooking?:evil: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snoops Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 Yeah this version causes my scimitar's side keys to stop responding in game. Some stop others will still work. Its weird and annoying. Please bring in auto switching between Advanced and Standard profiles. Most of my lighting is setup in basic so i can combine effects across kb+mouse(and mousepad after santas been lol) and my games in advanced mode and it ****s me no end that i have to manually change settings so my profiles work. I know alot of people have complained already but modes or something similar needs to be reintroduced please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GumbyDammit223 Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 Just noticed a new thread about this http://forum.corsair.com/v3/showthread.php?t=164427 Guess there's a macro in this new version of CUE that's screwy.

Agrivar2277 Posted December 25, 2016 Share Posted December 25, 2016 Only version that works for me is 2.3.74.

GumbyDammit223 Posted December 25, 2016 Share Posted December 25, 2016 :roll:Well, that's funny, because I have never made a single macro for this keyboard or mouse. The only thing I have done is set up lighting effects and mapped several keyboard keys to the Scimitar buttons. I see in a new thread http://forum.corsair.com/v3/showthread.php?t=164338 that someone is having the same problem with a different mouse and CUE 2.7.78. Just sayin' somethin's unstable.

His CUE build isnt 2.8.70 so it doesnt mean this build is unstable... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GumbyDammit223 Posted December 25, 2016 Share Posted December 25, 2016 No. What I AM SAYING is that v2.8.70 f****d up the settings for my mouse after receiving a "macro error" of some sort during its installation. Seeing (as I said earlier) that I HAVE NOT configured a SINGLE macro for either the keyboard OR the mouse, I was under the assumption that this "macro error" was an error within the installation. I had to go back to v2.7.78 and rebuild all my configurations. The building blocks were there when v2.7.78 was again installed, but the process of jumping back and forth screwed them up and I had to put everything back in its place to get things working again like I wanted. What I found funny was the fact that I thought Agrivar2277 said that he was having the same problems me, but with v2.7.78, which works for me. Going back and rereading the post, I see he was referring to v2.8.70 and was going back to v2.3.74. That's the problem with jumping from thread to thread and forum to forum, things get mixed up. And YES, I AM saying v2.8.70 is f****d up, at least for me and a couple others who have posted in this thread. No, I do not know what is causing other people's problems. I just know that when I went from v2.7.78, which was relatively stable on my computer, to v2.8.70, s*** was broken that wasn't broken prior. So, yes, I am well within my right to say that for me v2.8.70 is unstable. Case. Closed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aylaine Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 I was hoping this version would fix the macro execution bug that plagues my system every day, requiring me to repair the installation to fix the macros. Sadly it has not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BahamutxD Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 This version breaks void playback visualizer for keyboards, to enable again you have to open cue and select your keyboard, doing this will disable 7.1 on headset so you have to enable it again.

cplifj Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 This new version 2.8.70 has fixed quite a bit of issues for me. Keychatter on my k70 rgb rapidfire is gone (also on max polling rate). All buttons on the void usb are working as they should now without hickups or misreads of input on long or short buttonpresses. The only thing that seems to be wrong still is the lightingsettings for the media buttons on the k70 rapidfire. When trying to give any of those 4 buttons a color the 4th button lights up with it and must be manually unlit again to set it on it's own color. Something is miss with just those 4 buttons in the lightingsettings, other then that all other colorsettings work without flaws. Thanks, now i can finally use my keybord as it was ment to be without having to retype my passwords a zilion times caused by keychatter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brainless Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 Something is miss with just those 4 buttons in the lightingsettings, other then that all other colorsettings work without flaws.Sounds like a problem with the light controller and not CUE.

cplifj Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 no it's a problem of cue , just happens on this version. But i spoke too soon, the keychatter is returning. I really hate this expensive piece of crapware. any non mechanical keybord works way better then this keychattering crap. i've had it with corsair and them slapping their name on stuff they just buy from others. If this expensive premiumpriced keybord rgb rrapidfire can't be used to type.... or only one day after new software. What the hell are you guys doing really ? Trying to fix problems of overclocking *******s who allways got problems and so you screw up your software for them so nobody gets a working system in the end??
