The issue has been fixed in the pipeline builds. * Plugin architecture does not have a versioning system. If OpenRGB crashes on open, try deleting/updating all plugins. * Some ASUS GPUs that worked in 0.5 no longer work in 0.6. * Please open an issue on GitLab or join our Discord to get its PCI ID added. We need the following information: * Card marketing name and model number (Link to ASUS website preferred) * PCIe ID (Vendor, Product, Subvendor, Subproduct) * Detector I2C address (you can get this using a previous version of OpenRGB, version 0.5 recommended) * Redragon M711 wave effect doesn't work * Some Corsair mice do not have specific LED labels * Some Razer keyboards are missing key maps * Asus Addressable number of channels may be incorrect Notes: * Due to changes in device names, existing profiles you have saved from previous versions may not work and will need to be recreated. Same goes for saved addressable controller sizes. * If upgrading from a previous release, it is recommended to disable OpenRazer or OpenRazer-win32 in the settings. This allows use of the new Razer controller with better device support.
