NZXT (kraken and AER specifically) support?

[PhonicSword]

The CAM software they currently use is very buggy, and it would be nice to have their RGBs work in a different program. Don't know how hard it will be but thanks in advance!

NZXT was already requested by someone and as far as I know there's no official SDK for it.
It might be possible since there are some other projects around it, but without a documented way it'll go way down on my priority list.

https://github.com/KsenijaS/krakenx/blob/master/PROTOCOL.md is the protocol discription for x52 and x62

Would love to see my Kraken X52 rgb working together with my Asus MB and my MSI gpu rgbs

@SElben It's still not possible as of now :/ NZXT hasn't made an SDK...

Isn't CAM communicating through serial? Wouldn't need an SDK if the protocol is known. EDIT: I've actually integrated NZXT Hue+ in my own project. Can't find a full protocol though, my way of communicating is really messy and I'll update it later. Maybe when I'm finished rewriting I'll make a PR.

[akmadian]

@Pet0203 Yeah as far as I know, CAM communicates over serial so we wouldn't need a proper SDK. However, the only protocol known as far as I know is for the krakens. Idk how difficult it would be to build the provider, but I don't have my hopes up...

@PhonicSword I know this is from months ago, but I'm working on an NZXT SDK, so if you're looking for one, check here: https://github.com/akmadian/NZXTSharp

[PhonicSword]

@akmadian Thanks for the heads up! I actually saw your message when you sent it out, but was swamped by school and forgot about it until just now haha. Appreciate it!

This may also be of use. Works for pump and RGB control of my nzxt kraken.

Nothing new about NZXT, a native RGB.net would be nice. Ooenrgb has support for it.

[DarthAffe]

As there's no official sdk it's quite unlikely I'll add native support - it's just to much work to maintain especially without owning such devices.
If it's included in openRGB you could load them by using diogotr7s OpenRGB Device Provider https://github.com/diogotr7/RGB.NET.Devices.OpenRGB

If someone is interesting, how a Nzxt integration can look like https://github.com/piechade/Artemis.Plugins.Public/tree/master/src/Device/NZXT
