Chromatics 3.1.6.0
Please uninstall Chromatics 2 before installing Chromatics 3, or extract Chromatics 3 to a new location.
While Chromatics 3 is in beta, only the portable version will be available for download
Documentation
Please find the new Chromatics 3 documentation here.
Prerequisites
NEW!! .NET 8 Desktop Runtime
Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable 2022
Changes
- Added support for Dawntrail 7.1
- Added raid effects for Cloud of Darkness Chaotic Raid.
- Updated RGB.NET to latest version.
Known Bugs
Theses are bugs that I have already identified and don't need to be reported on.
- If you get an error message regarding terriTypes.json - please re-install from github.
- Job gauges have not been updated for 7.1
- Chromatics may take up to 30 seconds to fully shut down and restore lighting to defaults upon closing or updating.
- Layer help text doesn't always scale to the rich text box correctly.
- Interface can lag when dragging and resizing the window on high resolution monitors with non-standard DPI's.
- When changing key mappings on a layer, sometimes you need to disable and re-enable the layer or preview the layer before the lighting will apply.
- When de-selecting keys from a layer, they appear gray instead of taking the colour of the base layer. Previewing the layers should fix this.
- Only one keyboard layout en-us is available on the mapping tab. This is a QWERTY keyboard so if you use a different layout, such as AZERTY you will need to map keys accordingly.
- Azerty & Qwertz layouts not working correctly.

Important Notes - !!READ IF UPDATING!!
This release overhauls how mappings are handled, and as such is not compatible with your previous layouts! The app should migrate them automatically, but please backup your Chromatics directory before updating or install to a new folder if you don't wish to loose your settings.

Upon updating to this version, migration of your old layers will occur - if the RGB does not display correctly after updating, please restart Chromatics.
Changes
- Fixed a memory leak that was caused by logging out of FFXIV and back in while Chromatics is still running.

Documentation

Prerequisites
.NET 6 Desktop Runtime
Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable 2022
Important Notes
This is a pre-release version of Chromatics 3.0, as such it is expected that there will be bugs, possibly major bugs which can cause crashes or other stability. While I've done my best to test all the features extensively for stability, every PC is different and I can't possibly account for every variation - that's why we do these Beta releases! If you do come across issues, please let me know by posting in this channel.
Chromatics 3.x is a complete rebuild of Chromatics from the ground up and should be considerably more CPU & memory efficient than 2.x. However please keep an eye on performance and report any issues you find, especially when running for a long time.
Changes
- Fixed OpenRGB support (make sure SDK Server is running before starting Chromatics).
- Updated RGB.NET device libraries
- Updated other dependency libraries
- No support yet for Dawntrail. This will likely come weeks after official launch.
