What's new in Artemis 1.11.3.0

Jun 13, 2018
  • Fixes:
  • [Logitech] Fixed device support on the latest Logitech Gaming Software.
  • Known issues:
  • The K95 Platinum has an issue where some keys also light up the key to their left or right.
  • Changing layer properties in LUA isn't reflected in the profile editor.
  • The Rocket League module doesn't currently work.
  • The Unreal Tournament plugin is outdated and so the module doesn't work.
  • Note: Downloading the artemis-setup-1.11.3.0.msi instead of the artemis-1.11.3.0.zip is recommended.

New in Artemis 1.11.2.0 (Jan 8, 2018)

  • Fixes:
  • [G910] Fixed key alignment (#408).
  • [G810] Applied the same fix as to the G910 but untested.
  • Modules:
  • [WoW] Fixed the addon to no longer prevent logout after 7.3.5.
  • [Overwatch] Fixed the default profile to no longer only work with Genji (#419).
  • Known issues:
  • The K95 Platinum has an issue where some keys also light up the key to their left or right.
  • Changing layer properties in LUA isn't reflected in the profile editor.
  • The Rocket League module doesn't currently work.
  • The Unreal Tournament plugin is outdated and so the module doesn't work.

New in Artemis 1.11.1.0 (Dec 4, 2017)

  • A quick update to fix some issues that came up with 1.11.
  • Please note that if you're still running Artemis 1.10 or earlier the auto-updater will not pick this version up. 1.11 and onwards use a new type of auto-updater.
  • Fixes:
  • [General] Fixed default profiles not being placed in the right folder.
  • [General] Artemis now stores profiles and settings in the Program Data folder instead of the Documents folder (C:ProgramDataArtemis by default) this should keep virus scanners like Avast from having a stroke..
  • Modules:
  • [WoW] Fixed a crash if certain DLLs are removed by antivirus, you'll now just get a warning and instructions instead.

New in Artemis 1.11.0.0 (Nov 29, 2017)

  • Additions:
  • [LUA] Added slider GUI element (TylerJaacks).
  • [Profile editor] Added the ability to have conditions look inside lists (useful for the WoW module).
  • [Devices] Added Razer Firefly support (Chris-Barton).
  • [Devices] Added Razer Mamba support (Chris-Barton).
  • [Modules] Added F1 2017 module.
  • [Modules] Added World of Warcraft module.
  • Fixes:
  • [LUA] Fixed some LUA syntax in the default LUA file and wiki.
  • [Layers] Fixed Audio Visualization layers lag.
  • [Profile editor] Fixed rename duplicating profiles.
  • [Profile editor] Fixed some occasions on which the editor would go blank.
  • [Devices] Fixes to the Corsair keymap that's used for type lighting
  • [Devices] Fixed some LEDs not lighting up on the CoolerMaster keyboards
  • [General] Fixed a crash in the Rocket League module
  • Modules:
  • [Overwatch] Added Orisa and Doomfist (TylerJaacks).
  • [Overwatch] Updated the default profile to use LUA instead of a lot of layers.
  • [CS:GO] Added bomb status and win_team to CS:GO datamodel
  • [F1 2017] This module uses the game's official UDP telemetry, be sure to enable it!
  • [WoW] This module uses an addon it installs automatically whenever WoW is started with the module enabled. The addon doesn't break WoW's ToS but I cannot guarantee that it's 100% safe to use (I've been using it for a month without any issues myself). If you disable the module it will not install the addon.
  • Improvements:
  • [General] Artemis will no longer ask for administrator privilages on autorun.
  • [General ] Replaced the setup and auto-updater with one that doesn't rely on Squirrel.Windows. It was giving false-positives on virus scanners.

  • [Profile editor] You can now always move and resize selected layer even when it us underneath other layers.

New in Artemis 1.9.0.2 (Oct 5, 2017)

  • Fixes:
  • Fixed a crash when enabling Razer keyboards.
  • Fixed mouse freezing on startup, it'll still lag a bit for a second or two but that's just how it works (if it's still more than a few seconds let me know).

New in Artemis 1.8.1.0 (Oct 5, 2017)

  • [General] Improved performance datamodel update.

New in Artemis 1.8.0.2 (Oct 5, 2017)

  • Additions:
  • [Modules] - Added a Overlay profile module. This lets you create a profile that's always drawn on top of whatever other effect you have active. Currently it acts in the same way as the old Volume overlay module (which has been removed).
  • [Modules] - Added American Truck Simulator support to the now called Truck Simulator module.
  • [Events] - Expanded events to trigger on value change, value increase or value decrease. The latter two only work on number values (to see it in action, inspect the default overlay profile).
  • [Layers] - Added a new layer type, conical brush by DarthAffe. For a preview click here.
  • [Audio layer] - Added an option to select which audio device to display, can be input (microphone) or output.
  • [Audio layer] - When setting this new option to default Artemis will auto-update the layer when the default device changes.
  • Fixes:
  • [General] - The last active module is no longer activated after closing a game when that module was disabled in the first place. (#286)
  • [Profile editor] - Streamlined profile activation cycle, this fixes LUA not updating on running games and lots of rare bugs. (#257)
  • [Layer editor] - Fixed layer conditions sometimes resetting on properties window open.
  • Improvements:
  • [Profile editor] - Changed the confusing way in which editing worked with a game active. From now on whenever the editor is active and the Artemis window has focus, the game is overwritten by the editor. When you close the editor or focus the game window, the game is active. (#275)
  • [Audio layer] - Rewrote the audio layer so that it now always shows an accurate visualization
  • [Audio layer] - Removed the sensitivity slider in favor of auto-sensitivity. Artemis will watch how loud the sound is you're outputting and make sure it averages out to filling up your keyboard for 75% (this will be configurable later on).

New in Artemis 1.7.1.0 (Oct 5, 2017)

  • Additions:
  • [Layers] - Added an option to match one, all or none of the conditions on a layer.

  • [LUA] - Cleaned up errors in the log, showing only relevant info.
  • [Ambilight] - Fixed bug in the ambilight-layer-type causing it to stop working after changing profiles. (DarthAffe)
  • [Windows profile] Fixed window title data not always updating. (DarthAffe, #242)

  • [Overwatch] - Added Ana and Sombra to the default profiles.

  • Fixes:
  • Fixed a crash when changing layer conditions
  • Fixed logs not being archived.
  • General:
  • I've changed how easily Artemis crashes. in 1.6 I made the program more sensitive to errors, instead of just ignoring them alother but decided to somewhat revert this change. With 1.7 if something goes wrong rendering a frame the error is logged and the frame is skipped, instead of the whole application crashing. Many of these errors were simply caused by mis timings which I've tried very hard to avoid but I can't catch them all.

  • Fixed audio layer CPU usage with multiple audio layers and when editing profiles using audio layers. (#212)
  • Improved error reporting in the main render loop.
  • Additions:
  • Added layer animations to the audio layer type. (#178)
  • Added CM Masterkeys Pro S support. (#202)

  • To experience all layers have to offer, head over to Effects > Windows Profile and try out the Demo profile.
