  1. Yes, this manual is full of excellent information. Just what we hoped for. I've been trying to find out where to access modes for two weeks! Now this kind fellow explains that modes are gone, so no wonder I couldn't find them. Evidently they'll come back renamed files. Anyway, studying this official unofficial manual will be a great help to me. Also, personally to Inheritance, I'm very grateful that you posted this link to the documentation. Plus, I promise to never again put anything in your mouth. https://docs.google.com/document/d/18q4il6BLYNWfdifiPuOn-jrCwKphpar9b0Q7fK9YgRY/edit
  2. Much about CUE is not self-explanitory, my dear Inheritance. I say that with kindness and understanding. Well, partial understanding. Of your comments. Hoping for better relations and a revised manual. :eek:
  3. I politely disagree with your thinking. A clearly described and titled CUE Version 1 Manual would be far less confusing that the current no-instructions-at-all situation. That's my belief anyway, respectfully yours, Era :lastyear:
  4. Thank you for the link, but how would we new customers like me (and many others) who just bought this keyboard figure out where to find this on the Corsair Web site? I wasted my time locating the 3rd party source. Here's what I think makes sense: Put a download link for this out-of-date manual right there with the CUE 2 download link. And clearly label it: "Manual for previous version of CUE. We're working on a new manual for CUE 2.0. Thanks for your patience." I'm old. I don't like spending hours on some unnecessary research after I've paid nearly $200 on a new keyboard. When you're old, you want to enjoy life, not waste your time on silliness. Time of which you have little left... Why are documentation and efficient user interfaces an afterthought sometimes? For many techies the mantra is: "We understand what we built, why don't you?"
  5. These keyboards are excellent and you can do a lot with macros and color cues and such. Don't give up...Some clues can be found here in this .pdf manual for CUE v1. (So far there's no manual for CUE v2, the version we're now using.) http://www.pdf-manuals.com/corsair-k95-rgb-mechanical-gaming-keyboard-ch-9000062-na-305535-manual
  6. I'm afraid I have to politely disagree. A manual is I think essential to a system this powerful and complex. (A manual does exist, but not for CUE V2. Find it here: http://www.pdf-manuals.com/corsair-k95-rgb-mechanical-gaming-keyboard-ch-9000062-na-305535manual.) I almost returned the 95 keyboard last week from frustration similar to what Dauthus described. It's not just the mystery keys; it's more about the complex CUE UI and the many options that are either invisible (sometimes) or difficult to understand. I'm glad I didn't return it, though, because once you've figured out some of the UI, the keyboard becomes quite a time-saver even if not used for gaming. After spending several hours bumping around trying to figure out how to do a few simple things like creating actions that launch programs, I got tired of the missing v2 manual. The existing one has pictures that don't match CUE 2, features that don't work the same as described, and so on. Having worked in the computer field for three decades, I've discovered that many of my fellow nerds believe that clear, simple explanations of basic concepts are not necessary. Perhaps even insulting. They also sometimes confuse the newbie's lack of knowledge with a lack of intelligence. Perhaps Corsair is working on updating the existing manual. And they will then put the .PDF file for it on the same Web page where you download CUE 2. Until then, we customers must root around the forum, YouTube, and so on...piecing together what I hope will eventually be a comprehensive, clear, manual with step-by-step walkthroughs for all the features.
