Astral85 Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 I know quite a lot of people who don't want to run the Asus Armory Crate software and the standalone AURA is now discontinued. Is it at all possible Corsair could integrate the required AURA components directly into CUE 4 without the need for running either Armory Crate (or the discontinued AURA) and a plugin?

Pheelix Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 Just download Lighting Control file, extract it, and install AuraServicesetup and AacMBsetup manually. And it should allow iCue4 to work with the Motherboard. AacTerminalHal might also be needed but I am pretty sure the first two is all you need. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_PHNX_ Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 @Astral85 How did you get on with this? Did it work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astral85 Posted October 11, 2021 Author Share Posted October 11, 2021 The AuraServicesetup appears to install everything it normally would except the Aura app itself. An even more streamlined install would be better. I can confirm the Asus CUE plugin works with AuraServicesetup and AacMBsetup manually. The reason I've uninstalled again is because there currently seems to be a bug with CUE 4.15 onwards and the plugin in that there is a very large lag in devices going from software mode to HW mode when CUE is exited, i.e. system reboot. I don't know if the Aura installed with Armory Crate is having this issue or not. I'm about to report the bug in another thread now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mavyre Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 On my end, I just installed Armoury Crate without Aura Creator, configured my "Hardware lighting" correctly, and both my GPU and Motherboard appeared in iCue once I ticked the "Enable Plugins" in iCue. It seems that the Asus plugin is preinstalled in iCue now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astral85 Posted October 13, 2021 Author Share Posted October 13, 2021 (edited) I only want the motherboard lighting control in CUE but I don't want to run another hardware ecosystem's software (Armory Crate) just to be able to do that. If Asus agreed perhaps CUE could have standalone control of Asus motherboard lighting. Edited October 13, 2021 by Astral85 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sinubux Posted December 2, 2022 Share Posted December 2, 2022 This worked great, thanks @Pheelix! Armory Crate was causing hard crashes for me for some reason so this was a necessary workaround. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pheelix Posted December 20, 2022 Share Posted December 20, 2022 @sinubuxno problem. As I don't use a asus motherboard anymore I can't confirm if this method still works or not on future updates. It would be nice if Corsair got my MSI B550 Tomahawk to work with iCue. Until then I will just use the OpenRGB iCue Plugin I found as a work around..... when it wants to work correctly.
