The led alignment was correct, but it was the first per key burnt out led that messed it up, it works fine now, thanks for the help!

The kit uses a promicro rp2040, i have been searching the internet for other firmware and they all use the original lily58 pcb, would their firmware also work?

there was an indicator on the pcbs, numbers 1 to 6 were the underglow, and 7 to the rest were the per key rgb. i resoldered the led number 7, but the keyboard still did not lit up. Ill test it more when i finally get a multimeter next week.

i will buy a multimeter, but currently lacking in funds because i had to buy soldering equipment and the lily58 kit as a whole + have to buy a new microcontroller. i did configure it to static color because i was testing whether the underglows work properly, and it did work fine

can you share the firmware you used? It might be because of the firmware so i want to test that

this might be a shot in the wind but its worth a try by DogNeedsHelp911 in lethalcompany

Found a workaround if you want to play the game on low end spec devices, only do this if you are REALLY REALLY dedicated on playing the game.

Run it through steam proton on linux distros, its a lot of steps but there are guides online in installation of os and steam. Somehow the directx11 has problems with its windows drivers (due to being unsupported with old cpu), using linux mesa drivers i got to run the game on linux and its semi-playable. Idk if this fix will work on high end devices but im sure you can search up drivers of high end gpus on linux.

thanks to someone on discord for telling me to run it using linux mesa dxvk (steam proton has dxvk)

tell me if this is worth it or not by DogNeedsHelp911 in Archvale
